Big names in the technology industry such as Google, Microsoft, and Meta have been at the forefront of a push for renewable energy in the U.S. These companies often run their own power-hungry data centers, and over the years, these companies have worked to make them greener.
MidAmerican's current power generation is largely wind-based, but the company also uses a combination of coal, nuclear and other sources for about 42 percent of its power supply. The company said that the WIND Prime project was also key to helping the company reach its own zero-emission goals. If approved by October, the project would also help the company qualify for $1.8 billion worth of renewable energy credits from the federal government, Bloomberg reported.
