Innovest Report Highlights Financial Risks Of Coal Expansion
(CSRwire) NEW YORK, NY - May 14, 2008 - Innovest Strategic Value Advisors, Inc. has
released a report on the carbon-risk exposure of Dynegy's proposed coal
expansion projects.
Innovest's report on Dynegy offers an analysis of the company's plans to
develop six new coal fired power plants. Although the proposed plants
differ in capacity, each will increase Dynegy's exposure to impending
federal legislation on climate change. The report demonstrates how current
and future regulatory structures will continue to shift the competitive
balance away from coal fired generation. Therefore, Dynegy's strategic
decision to focus on new coal capacity could adversely affect shareholder
value.

Senior Analysts Eric Kane and Mario Lopez- Alcalã are the co-authors
of the Dynegy report. A recorded Webinar which contains an overview of
Innovest's findings is avaivable online. To see the webinar, click

Innovest is rated the #1 global provider of "extra-financial" research by
Thomson Extel and is the research provider for the Carbon Disclosure
Project. For more about Innovest Strategic Value Advisors, click here.
