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.
The Iowa State Fair wind turbine will provide fair goers the opportunity
to learn more about wind energy while generating the equivalent of one
quarter of the electricity needed by the Iowa State Fair.
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:
Improves air and water
quality;
Helps prevent power plant
and greenhouse gas emissions; and
Reduces our dependency
on fossil fuels.
