Frequently asked questions

Are Alliant Energy’s wholesale rates competitive?

Yes. We use sound strategies to retain competitive rates with a sound balanced generation mix and cost-effective planning.

How does your rate structure keep costs as low as possible for our customers?

Our bills are based on coincident peak demand, which is in many cases about 10% lower than the community’s maximum demand. This results in a 10% savings assuming equivalent rates.

Are there any prerequisites for service that would be an additional cost to customers? (Upfront investment, payment, administrative charge or debt consideration?)

No. We don’t have additional charges or liability assumption.

Is Alliant Energy's power supply portfolio and financing decisions regulated?

Yes. Unlike many power suppliers, Alliant Energy is regulated by federal and state agencies, which provides our customers with a level of security that they will receive power at just and reasonable rates.

Can Alliant Energy maintain service and reliability for our customers?

Yes. We have qualified field, technical and other professionals to meet operational needs of a rate-regulated, investor-owned utility. We make these capabilities available to our wholesale Power Partners. We have line and substation crews available to respond every hour, every day.

How can you help us in the event of major storms or system damage?

We maintain material inventories at all of our operations centers. Our inventories include everything necessary for safe and efficient restoration of substation and distribution systems. We have portable substations for major substation outages. All of our inventory is available to our wholesale Power Partners, 24/7/365.
