MidAmerican Energy proposed an additional investment of US$ 922 million with the announcement of its Wind XII project. The project, if approved, is expected to be completed in late 2020.
When combined with MidAmerican Energy’s other projects, the 591MW Wind XII project will allow the company to provide renewable energy each year that is equal to 100% of the energy consumed by the homes and businesses in MidAmerican Energy’s Iowa service area. The company is currently exploring potential wind farm sites in Iowa and will announce wind farm locations prior to constructing each site.
