LCG, October 12, 2006--CMS Enterprises, a subsidiary of CMS Energy, announced yesterday that it has signed agreements with Peabody Energy to co-develop the Prairie State Energy Campus. The proposed electric generating station is located in Washington County, Illinois and is adjacent to the new Lively Grove Mine, which would supply low-cost coal directly to the plant. The plant is to include two, 800-MW units and is estimated to cost over $2.5 billion.
With the new agreements, CMS Enterprises and Peabody Energy will co-develop the project and each own 15 percent through a jointly owned limited liability company.

According to Peabody Energy, the agreements now give the project's partners the right to purchase a 53 percent equity ownership in the project. The agreements allow the cities of Columbia, Missouri; Princeton, Kentucky; and Paducah, Kentucky and the rural members of Soyland to obtain electricity from the facilities.

The major permits necessary for construction of the Prairie State facility have been received, according to Peabody Energy.
