What what powers the Midwest power grid?

I'm currently working on a research power, and no amount of googling has netted any sort of official website stating what percentages of the power grid in either the Midwest or Indiana in particular are powered by what source. I know a majority is coal power, with some natural gas and small bits of alternative sources, but I can't find anything official. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

Update:

I'm not looking for exact information, simply a legitimate source stating that X percent is coal, Y percent is oil, etc. I've seen such information referred to in the news, magazines, etc, so there must be a factual basis for it one way or another...

    that information is classified. Youlll never get percentages, sources or load averages, as they represent national vulnerabilities.
