About the Iowa City Area Development Group Now in its 26th year, the Iowa City Area Development Group works to enhance the quality of our communities by serving the business development needs of interstate commerce companies in the greater Iowa City metropolitan area.
The Iowa City Wind Energy Industrial Park and Supply Chain Campus Knowing that wind energy manufacturing is poised for significant growth, Iowa City became the first and only city in the nation to purchase land and develop an industrial park specific to this industry. Created with the goal of attracting this industry through conscientious design, every aspect of this new industrial park has been developed to meet the unique needs of wind energy manufacturers. In developing this site, a platting scheme was devised in which a foundry with machining capacity could be placed adjacent to any nacelle OEM such that shipping costs on large castings would be eliminated. Product could be moved on a private rail spur from one facility to the next. All the turning radii and road widths have been designed to accommodate the 19 axle trailers commonly used for moving nacelles and the articulated trailers on which many blades are transported.

We Know Wind Energy The team at ICAD Group understands that no company survives in a vacuum. For the past four years we have traveled to conferences worldwide building a network of project developers and supply chain contacts. Our goal is to utilize these relationships to help any project find market opportunities and create a value added supply base. We can coordinate meetings with potential customers to help bring deals to the table to catalyze production expansion plans. As well, we will work very closely with our local and state leaders to coordinate transportation, logistics and supply chain solutions to help any company compete with the major players in the market. We know that without this assistance, it can be extremely difficult for OEMs to compete with GE, Siemens and a growing Asian interest. Our research has shown considerable interest in innovations in turbine design and we see a strong future for products that can cut down O&M costs and return strong value to investors. Innovation is what drives our region and any company that locates here can take advantage of the strong R&D capacity and knowledge base that fuels new thinking.

Strategically Located and Prepped for the Wind Energy Supply Chain Being closer to Clipper and Acciona offers the potential to expand upon an existing synergistic cluster in the heart of the wind belt. At this time, infrastructure funding has been committed and initial projects are under way to certify this site as “Shovel Ready.” Soil borings done on site verify the capacity for crane infrastructure utilizing geopiers. Plus, there is still significant flexibility in platting and layout of rail infrastructure to customize the site plan configuration. This site is out of the 500 year floodplain with no history of seismic activity. Redundant electrical power to the site is provided by MidAmerican Energy. One of the greatest advantages of this site is the reliable power at some of the nation’s lowest electrical rates. ICAD Group can work with our electric partner to provide specific cost estimates with further information on load usage for any project.

Strategically Located and Prepped for the Wind Energy Supply Chain Roads With its location in the wind corridor, most Midwest wind farms could be reached by truck from the supply chain campus. One of the reasons for Iowa’s high installed MW capacity of wind is the ease by which loads can be moved within our borders. Many states do not offer a comprehensive travel corridor, leaving each county to determine restrictions, thus adding time and expense to shipping. Further, northern border states, such as Minnesota and Wisconsin, as well as Michigan, may have seasonal embargos on heavy loads in the spring which can cause delivery delays. Rail/River The entire park is rail served by the Iowa Interstate Railroad that has linkages to all major rail lines and two river barge ports, one of which is ice free year round. Our logistical studies and industry data suggest that rail can be a cost saving option for loads transported in excess of 400 miles. Air The Iowa City area has multiple domestic and international connections through direct flights available at two regional airports. Nearly one-third of the country's population is within an hour flight of our area. The Eastern Iowa Airport ranks in the Top 10 of airports in the seven-state Midwestern region.

Moss Green Urban Village Moss Green Urban Village is being developed as the nation’s first Macro Green business park, using effective green technologies in all phases of development. Buildings will use 60% less BTU’s per square foot than conventional office buildings.
All infrastructure will be built using minimum impact strategies and the latest in green technology, including utility, sanitary sewer and communication line installation. The development is located at the crossroads of Iowa state Highway 1 and Interstate 80, and near major employers including ACT, Inc., Pearson Educational Measurement and Mercer.

Incentives We recognize that in recent years some states have far surpassed what we as communities and a state typically provide in terms of incentives for projects. The economic downturn has created large pockets of high unemployment in areas of the country; these communities are desperately vying to encourage economic development to revitalize their areas. While we understand this funding can be very attractive to companies in the short term, there are many examples of how these incentives can mask hidden issues to profitability and create obstacles to success in the long run. We hope that the decision makers consider a holistic approach to their search and recognize an area like ours has continued to demonstrate stability and modest growth even in this downturn. The Iowa City area has retained one of the lowest unemployment levels in the nation because of the way it supports its interstate business climate. Area leaders for generations have sought and found a balanced approach to economic and community development. We have cultivated the conditions for companies to succeed and trust future projects would benefit from the progressive and positive mindset that permeates the region.
10
Job Training and Innovation Iowa’s job training program allows companies to spend up to 50% of their job training funds for on-the-job training and the other 50% on programs, travel and related expenses to train employees. Traditional industrial tech programs are also offered by Kirkwood Community College. Specifically, Kirkwood has worked closely with Clipper and Acciona to target wind specific job skill sets. Area companies can link to the innovations in wind energy research being developed at the University of Iowa’s College of Engineering and under IAWIND, both led by AWEA board member Patrick Butler. Cutting edge research will bolster the bottom line and develop talented employees through a variety of co-op and internship programs. The University of Iowa’s College of Engineering has developed research abilities and practical experience in a number of industry sectors: ￭ ￭ ￭
material handling and automation manufacturing process software, control and sensors
￭ ￭ ￭
meteorology composites for blades and nacelle covers mechanical engineering for drive train
11
Supportive Business Climate The Iowa City area is the southern anchor of the Cedar Rapids/Iowa City Technology Corridor. The economy is based on thriving commerce, a major university, and a number of national and international businesses, including Fortune 500 companies. Acciona North America, Pearson, Oral B Laboratories, Rockwell Collins, Procter & Gamble, ACT, Inc, and scores of smaller businesses operate facilities in the Iowa City area. ￭

Labor: Available and Capable The Iowa City area is strategically located in the center of the largest population region in the state of Iowa, more than 400,000 people, and consistently attracts laborers and knowledge workers from over a 60-mile radius. The Iowa City area, with a 16.7% workforce growth rate over the past decade, offers highly educated, productive labor in a ‘right to work,’ non-union environment. (Chicago Federal Reserve) Employers attribute local workforce quality to the superior educational commitment the area offers as well as Midwestern work ethic and values. Many executives recognize that community support and cultural diversity contribute to a positive bottom line. Compared to national averages, the Iowa City area workforce is 12% more stable and ranked 23% higher in quality. Workers in our region produce 8% more than the average American worker. (2008 North American Data Study)
13
Recruiting Top Talent Recruiting management and knowledge workers in medium sized metros can be challenging to many Midwestern communities. The Iowa City area is different. Home to a major university, the city has gained a reputation as an international city. In November 2008, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated Iowa City the world's third City of Literature. Iowa City joins Edinburgh, Scotland, and Melbourne, Australia, as UNESCO Cities of Literature. The Iowa City area is recognized as having the third highest education level per capita nationally and the highest doctor to citizen ratio in the U.S. With some of the best public and private schools in the nation, this area is focused on learning. This translates into a vibrant, artistic community that offers a very active way of life not typically found in our part of the country.
