Weather peril exposure
PULLIAM is a partly retired 441 MW coal power plant in Brown County, WI, operated by WISCONSIN PUBLIC SERVICE CORP. Brown County carries elevated modeled catastrophe exposure in the FEMA National Risk Index, scoring 3.2 of 5 at the 54th national percentile. Heat wave is the leading peril, rated Relatively Low by FEMA at the 77th percentile.
The Bywatts loss layer is calibrated to solar PV hardware, so it is not applied to a coal plant. The ratings below are the FEMA National Risk Index county hazard ratings for this location.
