Integrated Resource Planning: Objectives and Key Questions
- Objectives:
– Sufficient Power Supply for Reliability & Low Costs – Meeting I-937 and Other Regulatory Requirements – Appropriate Mix of Cost and Risk
- The IRP is About Three Key Questions:
– How Much Conservation and Resources? – When? – What Kind?

2010 IRP: Less Resources Needed to Preserve 95% Winter* Reliability
Accounts for Load Growth, Weather Impacts, Hydro Volatility, Forced Outages, Operating Reserves, Power Contract Terms and Expirations
Notes: Both 2008 and 2010 assume 100 aMW from wholesale spot market. Winter reliability-based resource needs are independent of I-937 requirements.

What’s Next?
- Seek City Council Approval of Draft 2010 IRP
- Incorporate Key Elements of the IRP into the
Strategic Plan Update as Appropriate
– Contributes to Customer Service, Operational Excellence, Environmental Stewardship, and Balanced Resource Portfolio in the Strategic Plan
- Continue to acquire RECs and Renewable
Resources on a Path to Comply with 2016 Targets for I-937
