Ameren Missouri Grows Renewable Solutions Program

Organizations across Missouri partner with the company to support new development

Ameren Missouri recently received approval from the Missouri Public Service Commission to acquire a 150-megawatt (MW) solar facility currently under construction in Cass County, Illinois. When finished, the Cass County Renewable Energy Center will double the size of the company's Renewable Solutions program.

"Demand remains very strong for programs that bring businesses ready-made solutions to help them reach their sustainability goals," said Mark Birk, chairman and president of Ameren Missouri. "Working collaboratively with participating organizations, we're able to innovate, support continued investment in the region and help all our Missouri customers."

Renewable Solutions is a subscription-based program that allows eligible businesses and organizations to replace up to 100% of their total energy use with renewable sources. Organizations from throughout Missouri signed up to take part in the program's expansion, increasing their use of renewable energy. Below is a list of organizations that have recently joined or increased their participation in the Renewable Solutions program:

  • Air Products

  • bioMérieux

  • Donald Danforth Plant Science Center

  • Mastercard

The Cass County facility is one part of Ameren Missouri's strategy to supply affordable and reliable energy. The acquisition of the energy center is subject to customary closing conditions and is anticipated to begin generating energy by the end of the year.
