The company will deliver 91 million tons of coal from its mines in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming, US.

In an effort to meet limits on emissions of sulfur dioxide, Ameren burns low-sulfur coal at its Missouri plants to generate electricity.

Ameren Missouri president and CEO Warner Baxter said the company will produce cleaner air, reduce the impact of stringent environmental standards on its customers, and strengthen the state’s energy and economic future.

Ameren Missouri serves 1.2 million electric and 126,000 natural gas customers in central and eastern Missouri.
