ITEM 8.01  OTHER EVENTS.

On August 12, 2016, WEC Energy Group, Inc. (“WEC Energy”) entered into an agreement with Tilden Mining Company L.C. (“Tilden”), an affiliate of Cliffs Natural Resources Inc., pursuant to which Tilden will purchase electric power from a Michigan subsidiary of WEC Energy for 20 years. Under the terms of the agreement, the Michigan subsidiary of WEC Energy will construct natural gas-fired reciprocating internal combustion engines in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan capable of generating an aggregate of approximately 170 megawatts. The estimated cost of this project is approximately $255 million, 50% of which is expected to be recovered from Tilden under the terms of the agreement with the remaining 50% expected to be recovered from utility customers located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, the new units are expected to achieve commercial operation in 2019.
