Ohio’s electric customers were charged more than $100 million to subsidize two unprofitable coal plants in 2020.

Dominion Energy’s latest long-term plan, which says the utility will likely need to increase carbon emissions, is based on flawed modeling and assumptions, environmental and clean energy industry groups say.

Critics say the billions of dollars that MidAmerican Energy plans to invest almost exclusively in wind power could be better spent.

MidAmerican’s plan to continue burning coal at five Iowa power plants environmentally harmful, more costly than low-carbon alternatives.

Joint testimony was filed today in MidAmerican’s Wind PRIME docket before the Iowa Utilities Board. MidAmerican’s Wind PRIME project, which would add 2,042 MW of wind and 50 MW of solar, relies on the company’s plans to continue operating 5 large coal-burning power plants in Iowa. These coal plants make MidAmerican the single largest carbon polluter in the state.

Des Moines-based MidAmerican Energy, a state regulated utility owned by Omaha investment guru Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Energy, which serves 800,000 electric and natural gas customers in Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, and South Dakota, has its sights set on generating the annual equivalent of 100% of its electric power from renewable sources.
