MidAmerican Energy
is continually adding renewable energy to the company's electric generation
capabilities, and thanks to voluntary contributions from customers, the
company constructed a .5 megawatt wind turbine on the Iowa State Fairgrounds in 2007.
While benefiting all Iowa customers, the State Fair wind turbine provides fair goers the
opportunity to learn more about renewable energy generation. In addition, the turbine has
the potential to generate enough electricity to power more than 400 average U.S. homes
for one year.
Future Renewable Advantage
projects may involve wind, solar, biomass, animal waste/methane or other
renewable energy technologies, and will be determined by customer interest
and participation.
Renewable energy generation:
Improves air and water
quality;
Helps prevent power plant
and greenhouse gas emissions; and
Reduces our dependency
on fossil fuels.
