The Iowa Utility Association (IUA) is helping Iowa thrive with a sustainable, reliable energy grid that delivers the power we count on every day. Formed in 1971, the IUA’s mission is to secure Iowa’s energy future by improving the common business interests and operating conditions of Iowa’s investor-owned electric, natural gas, transmission and water utilities. The Iowa Utility Association’s members are Alliant Energy, Black Hills Energy, ITC Midwest and MidAmerican Energy Company. Associate members include NextEra Energy Resources and Iowa American Water. These utilities provide energy and water for thousands of Iowa’s homes and businesses.
Our Members
Our Utilities
From the IUA’s offices near the Iowa State Capitol in Des Moines, the IUA works with our member companies to develop, coordinate and promote common industry public policy. The IUA's goal is to make sure Iowa's energy story is told accurately... and that Iowans have the facts they need to understand why their energy costs look different from the rest of the country. The IUA organizes forums and community conversations to help Iowans understand the energy issues that affect their homes, businesses and communities.
The IUA’s key areas of advocacy include infrastructure, security, growth in renewable energy in Iowa, safety and cyber security.
