Integrated Resource Planning – Example
21 April 2011
Integrated Resource Planning Example Issues to be Addressed
•DSM/Energy Efficiency
• Potential resource ‐ need to gather gbaseline information
• Funding alternatives – State, system Funding alternatives State, systembenefit charge, participants, etc.
• Delivery mechanisms – AHFC, AEA,IRP
