If the CPCN request is approved within the anticipated timeframe, I&#038;M is expected to take ownership of the facility in March of 2029 once construction and commissioning are complete. The site is adjacent to I&#038;M\u2019s retired Breed Generation Facility. I&#038;M has a long and positive history of collaboration with the community and looks forward to reinvesting in the area.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal to acquire Sycamore Riverside is a component of <a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/2025\/04\/01\/indiana-michigan-power-is-future-ready-with-plans-to-enhance-diverse-energy-mix\/\">I&#038;M\u2019s Future Ready plan<\/a>, which details the resources needed to provide I&#038;M customers with reliable and affordable energy today and into the future. The cost of the project will not impact I&#038;M\u2019s ability to request a reduction in base rates as well as a multi-year freeze of non-fuel rates for Indiana customers.<\/p>\n<p>The acquisition is necessary to meet increased energy and capacity demand and the filing contains additional information on future operating plans, fuel supply strategy, status of major equipment purchases and affordability considerations. Through the CPCN process, the IURC will evaluate whether the acquisition is reasonable and in the public\u2019s interest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs our communities continue to grow, we are investing in a diverse generation portfolio consisting of new and existing facilities, designed to meet our customers\u2019 future energy needs,\u201d said Steve Baker, I&#038;M president and chief operating officer. \u201cThe Sycamore Riverside Energy Center is a dispatchable resource, providing reliable on-demand power during periods of peak energy needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The project is being developed by Invenergy, North America\u2019s largest privately held independent power producer and energy infrastructure innovator. Sycamore Riverside Energy Center will be Invenergy\u2019s third project in Sullivan County.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to working with I&#038;M on this project and moving it into the next phase of its development,\u201d said Daniel Runyan, Invenergy\u2019s senior vice president of development. \u201cAs energy demand continues to grow, unlocking reliable, affordable, domestic energy helps ensure that Indiana customers have consistent power when they need it most.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I&#038;M is navigating an unprecedented time in history. As the company looks ahead, power demand is expected to more than double the Indiana peak from approximately 2,800 MW in 2024 to more than 7,000 MW in the 2030 timeframe. The rapid growth in energy demand provides an opportunity for I&#038;M to reshape the way it serves current customers and those the company will serve decades into the future.<\/p>\n<p>I&#038;M\u2019s generation portfolio incorporates a diverse mix of resources, including solar, wind, nuclear, natural gas, coal and hydroelectric units. The company\u2019s vision for the future is to implement a comprehensive approach to providing a reliable, resilient, and stable electric power system that customers can access affordably.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Indiana Michigan Power<\/strong><br \/>\nIndiana Michigan Power (I&#038;M) is headquartered in Fort Wayne, and its approximately 2,000 employees serve more than 600,000 customers.
