Energy Blueprint

The Energy Blueprint is our roadmap for building a strong and resilient energy future to meet the growing energy needs across Iowa and Wisconsin.

Our long-term plan expands generation capacity and includes a balanced mix of wind, solar, hydropower, natural gas, coal and energy storage. It is designed to deliver the reliable, cost-effective energy customers count on. By combining new and renewable energy sources while maximizing traditional energy sources, we’re helping support economic growth, maintain reliability and keep customer bills as low as possible.

At the same time, we are modernizing our distribution system to create a smarter, more adaptable infrastructure that increases resiliency and supports evolving energy technologies.

By advancing our responsible approach to energy resources, we can deliver what matters most to our customers and the communities we serve – reliably, safely and responsibly.

Our environmental stewardship is focused on meeting our customers' energy needs affordably, safely, reliably, and sustainably. Our voluntary goals include:

By 2030:

• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions from our utility operations by 50% from 2005 levels.
• Reduce our electric utility water supply by 75% from 2005 levels.
• Electrify 100% of our company-owned light-duty fleet vehicles.

By 2040:

• Eliminate all coal from our generation fleet.

By 2050:

• Aspire to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from our utility operations.

We will continue to review and update our goals based on future economic developments, evolving energy technologies and emerging trends in the communities we serve.

*Alliant Energy’s voluntary goals include direct Scope 1 greenhouse gas emissions that are reportable to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (40 CFR Part 98: Subparts C, D, and W) including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) from owned fossil-fueled electric generation and natural gas distribution operations.
