General Manager of Sturgeon Bay Utilities Jim Stawicki says the company is well positioned to handle future demand and foster growth in the area’s industrial sector. Stawicki believes that SBU’s ability to deliver for both the city’s east and west side is as important as the overall generating capacity. By treating both ends of the city as equals it removes potential constraints for future expansion.

Stawicki says that there has been obvious load growth driven by manufacturing in the city related to the strong economy. There are challenges to increasing manufacturing in the area but Stawicki is proud to say that SBU is not one of them.
