*Estimated percentages comprise Basin Electric Power Cooperative's and Western Area Power Administration's generation supplies.

This information does not allow any cooperative member to claim environmental attributes of power supply since some renewable energy certificates are sold to improve the economics of renewable generation.

Central Iowa Power Cooperative (CIPCO) is based in Cedar Rapids, IA, and provides wholesale electrical requirements and other services for Midland Power's southern area service territory.

CIPCO Graph

1. CIPCO’s purchase power agreement for Wapello Solar LLC locks in stable, long-term pricing and avoids the risks associated with rising fuel costs. Renewable energy certificates (RECs) are not included in this agreement.

2. CIPCO invests in the development of renewable energy projects in several ways. We operate six small-scale solar arrays near communities we serve and retain the renewable energy certificates associated with each. We also contract with energy producers for the electricity output from wind, hydro, and methane gas from a landfill (converted into electricity). CIPCO cannot claim these resources as renewable within our supply portfolio as we have either sold to third parties or do not receive the renewable attributes associated with the electricity produced from these renewable power sources. By selling these attributes (RECs), we not only support other organizations in meeting their renewable energy goals, we also generate revenue to help us lower our wholesale power rate to our 12 Member-owner distribution cooperatives and 15 municipalities.

3. A percentage of market purchases exist within the portfolio to meet additional supply needs not covered by existing contracts or CIPCO-produced generation. Weather volatility and unplanned operational events at power plants may also impact market purchases.
