ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.Representatives of WEC Energy Group, Inc. (“WEC Energy”) will be participating in upcoming meetings with investors. Attached as Exhibit 99.1 are the presentation slides (the “Presentation”) to be used at such meetings. ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTSRate RequestsOn April 1, 2026, WEC Energy’s Wisconsin utility subsidiaries – Wisconsin Electric Power Company (“WE”), Wisconsin Gas LLC and Wisconsin Public Service Corporation (“WPS”) – filed requests with the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (“PSCW”) to set customer rates for electric and natural gas for 2027 and 2028. WE’s filing also includes a request to set rates for steam. Information regarding the rate case filings has been included on slides 9 and 10 of the Presentation, which information is incorporated by reference herein.Extension of Oak Creek Power Plant Units 7 and 8On April 1, 2026, WE announced plans to extend the operating lives of units 7 and 8 at the Oak Power Plant, and expects to have the units available to meet high energy demand periods through 2027. The units were scheduled to retire at the end of 2026.The decision to postpone the retirement dates for these units is based on two critical factors: reliability and affordability for WE’s customers. This past winter the Midwest power market experienced tightened energy supply and higher energy costs during the extreme temperatures. Keeping units 7 and 8 available will better position WE to serve customers with safe, reliable and affordable energy on the hottest and coldest days of the year. The extension of these units will serve as a bridge until new dispatchable generation begins to come online, which is expected in late 2027.ITEM 9.01 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS(d) Exhibits99.1Presentation slides104Cover Page Interactive Data File (embedded within the Inline XBRL document).Forward-Looking StatementsCertain statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
