Clean energy vision and goals

Successful execution of our strategy will enable us to achieve our clean energy initiatives.

By 2030:

• Reduce our fossil fuel generation carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions by 50% from 2005 levels

• Reduce our electric utility water supply by 75% from 2005 levels

• Electrify 100% of our company-owned light-duty fleet vehicles 

By 2040:

• Eliminate all coal from our generation fleet

By 2050:

• Aspire to achieve net-zero CO₂ emissions from the electricity we generate

We will continue to review and update our Sustainable Energy strategy and Clean Energy Vision, based on future economic developments, evolving energy technologies and emerging trends in the communities we serve.

Alliant Energy’s commitment to supporting the communities we serve extends to improving the natural environment for future generations. In 2021, we announced our One Million Trees initiative to donate and help plant more than one million trees by the end of 2030.

Alliant Energy aspires to reach net-zero carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions by 2050 for the electricity we generate. In addition, we plan to continue exploring opportunities to eliminate and fully remove our CO₂ emissions from the environment. Our path will be guided by future policies, economic developments, evolving energy technologies and emerging trends in the communities we serve.

As we move forward, we will maintain sight of the fact that the energy we generate must remain affordable, safe and reliable. Through continued partnerships with customers, communities, regulators and stakeholders, we will successfully progress toward achieving our goals – and creating clean energy.
