Targeted Research

The Iowa Energy Center has a strong history of setting the course for renewable energy development and energy efficiency initiatives in our state. As our nation awakens to the realities of energy production and use, the Energy Center continues to pursue opportunities for investigation in new and emerging areas that otherwise would go untapped. For these projects we initiate targeted research.

Our targeted research is funded in the same manner as our other grants, programs and sponsorships – from an annual assessment on gross intrastate revenues of gas and electric utilities in Iowa. The amount received from the assessment is closely tied to the level of economic activity in the state and can vary from year to year.
