Tax-related - Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s tax-related regulatory liabilities are primarily related to excess deferred tax benefits resulting from the remeasurement of accumulated deferred income taxes caused by Federal Tax Reform. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s tax-related regulatory liabilities decreased primarily from returning a portion of these excess deferred tax benefits back to customers.
