Alliant Energy plans to add wind generation to support a balanced energy strategy
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (July 2, 2025) - In a filing with the Iowa Utilities Commission (IUC), Alliant Energy (NASDAQ: LNT) announced plans to add up to 1,000 megawatts (MW) of wind energy generation in Iowa. The company needs additional generation to meet demand and ensure reliable, affordable energy for customers.
The announcement is a major milestone for Alliant Energy in advancing its "all-of-the-above" approach to energy generation. The company integrates renewable and traditional energy sources to balance innovation with proven solutions and meet customer demand.
"This filing marks a significant step in our commitment to an all-of-the-above approach to energy generation," said Mayuri Farlinger, president of Alliant Energy's Iowa energy company and vice president of energy delivery. "By expanding our wind energy portfolio, we're reinforcing our ability to meet customer demand while delivering reliable and cost-effective energy for customers."
Alliant Energy will own and operate the projects once operational, retaining its position as one of the top five largest utility owners and operators of regulated wind in the United States. These new wind projects will create construction jobs, deliver payments to landowner partners and increase tax revenue for their counties.
The company anticipates a decision from the IUC in the first quarter of 2026. To learn more about Alliant Energy and wind generation, visit alliantenergy.com/wind.
