New Combined-Cycle Commissioned in Iowa

LCG, May 19, 2004--A 565-megawatt combined-cycle facility has been commissioned by Alliant Energy Corp.'s utility subsidiary Interstate Power and Light Company (IPL) near Mason City, Iowa.

The recently completed Emery Generating Station will be available mostly during peak periods and for times when other plants experience unforeseen outages, and is seen enhancing reliability in IPL's service territory. Prior to Emergy, the most recently built IPL plant was Ottumwa, which began operating in 1981.

In December 2003, IPL also disclosed plans to install 130 megawatts of wind-power generation, 15 megawatts from anaerobic digesters, and 290 megawatts of gas-fired capacity separate from Emery.
