Summary

Iowa adopted regulations in 2003 that require a rate-regulated electric utility to annually disclose to its customers the fuel mix of its electricity production and the associated sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, and carbon dioxide emissions emissions, expressed in pounds per 1000 kilowatt-hours. This requirement excludes electric public utilities with fewer than 10,000 customers and electric cooperatives that have elected to allow the Iowa Utilities Board (IUB) to regulate their rates.
