HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Dynegy (NYSE:DYN) subsidiary, Illinois Power Holdings (IPH) completed its acquisition of New Ameren Energy Resources (AER), an Ameren (NYSE:AEE) subsidiary. The transaction includes AER and its subsidiaries Ameren Energy Generating Company (Genco), New AERG (AERG), and Ameren Energy Marketing Company (AEM). Dynegy now owns more than 8,000 megawatts (MW) of generating capacity in Illinois, and nearly 14,000 MW nationally.

The AER fleet and the Homefield Energy retail and marketing businesses are a natural fit with Dynegy’s existing generation fleet,” said Dynegy President and Chief Executive Officer Robert C.
