BPA participates in the development of the Northwest Power and Conservation Council’s Seventh Power Plan
Throughout 2015, BPA will be engaged with the Council on the development of the Seventh Power Plan and the Energy Efficiency targets. BPA is engaging on a number of fronts; first with regional data collection from 2010-2013 and the upcoming months will be summarizing and analyzing the 7th Plan energy efficiency supply curves. BPA will continue to post information as the Seventh Plan process evolves and more data is available. For Council related materials, please visit the Council’s Seventh Plan webpage.
7th Power Plan
This spreadsheet compiles all of the NPCC's conservation supply curves into one workbook so users can conveniently assess the overall levels of savings it believes can be achieved in the 7th Plan's planning period. Potential savings are detailed by measure and sector.
7th Plan Measures Compiled
This presentation provided a summary of the Council’s draft energy efficiency supply curves and savings potential for the 7th Power Plan. All numbers were draft and subject to change until approved by the Council.
This presentation provided a high level overview of the supply curve review process and how these supply curves feed into the Regional Portfolio Model (RPM).
