Family Restaurant, 2627 Center Street, Cedar Falls

Renewable Energy, Net Zero Emissions and Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in Iowa
MidAmerican Energy in partnership with BHE Renewables, a wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy, headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, is investing extensively in solar, wind, geothermal and hydro projects. Jeremy will explain the core principals of this partnership and account management using LINK Exchange programming.
Electric vehicles have introduced anxiety over the range that they can be driven before recharging. MidAmerican Energy is planning rapid direct current charging stations throughout Iowa. These stations and their locations will be discussed. A plan addressing the range anxiety issue is to build an infrastructure of 15 fast-charging stations across Iowa each within roughly 50 miles of another.
Other topics planned for this season:
August 2022, Tall Grass Prairie
September 2022, Tandem Insulin Pump
October 2022, Logistics of Food Bank with Tour
November 2022, Iowa National Guard
