A forward-looking infrastructure modernization initiative designed to replace aging infrastructure, upgrade electric distribution systems, and modernize the electric grid. The plan includes deploying smart meters to provide real-time data, implementing system hardening, and expanding system capacity to improve grid reliability and resilience.

Expected impact: Improves system reliability and resilience, reduces outage times, and supports the integration of clean energy resources while modernizing the grid for long-term customer benefit.

Ameren Missouri's long-term resource plan focused on transitioning to a cleaner, more diverse energy portfolio. The plan includes retiring aging fossil-fuel generation, accelerating the expansion of renewable energy, and deploying battery energy storage systems.

Expected impact: Achieves significant greenhouse gas emission reductions, aligns with state-level climate goals, and leverages federal Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) tax credits to deliver customer savings and financially accretive rate base growth.

Proposed construction of a new 2,100-megawatt combined-cycle natural gas facility designed to provide reliable, around-the-clock baseload power. The project will utilize existing infrastructure and transmission line access on-site to reduce construction time and costs.

Expected impact: Ensures grid reliability during extreme weather and periods of high demand, supports regional economic development, and replaces retiring generation assets with efficient, dispatchable capacity.
