Address

Waterloo, IA
United States
Latitude: 42.2934
Longitude: -92.2035
Cost (in millions): 1500
Notes
Was to come online in 2013 and sell power to customers in and out of IA.
Elk Run never filed a permit (because it was proposed as a 'merchant' plant). Since it didn't file a permit, the proposed output was never part of state energy plans.

LS Power cited the economic downturn as reason for not pursuing the project.
Announcement of the cancellation follows news that LS Power and Dynygy's joint venture has dissolved.
