What is the IRP and how does it guide utility decisions?

The IRP is a long range, 20-year reliability planning document that provides several scenarios, based on a snapshot in time, of how we could serve our customer demand. It provides a structured, analytical way to evaluate how customer energy needs could be met over time by testing assumptions, constraints, and different resource portfolios. This analysis is conducted under current laws and across a range of future conditions.
