Iowa IPL is proud to be a part of the newly launched “Clean Up MidAm” campaign, which is a coalition of organizations and Iowans who are holding MidAmerican Energy accountable to their 100% renewable energy vision.
MidAmerican is operating six coal plants in Iowa, which is one of the largest coal fleets in the country. This coal generation is not needed to meet Iowa customers’ energy needs and is run at the expense of Iowans both environmentally and financially. Iowa IPL envisions a world where we live in right relationship with our neighbors and planet; retiring Iowa’s coal plants aligns with our vision for equitable climate solutions and our moral obligation to address the climate crisis. That’s why we joined the coalition calling for MidAmerican to make a plan to shut down coal by 2030.
Across our state in both rural and urban areas, Iowans of faith and conscience like you are advocating for clean energy and air that is equitable and just. We believe that it should be MidAmerican’s moral imperative to put our children’s future ahead of company profits. And we believe that MidAmerican can and will do the right thing.
