New Mexico Integrated Resource Planning
What is Integrated Resource Planning (IRP)?
An IRP examines the types of resources to be included in the utility’s portfolio, the amounts that must be added, and the timing for those additions. In effect, an IRP provides a strategic plan for future resource decisions by the utility.
Public Participation
SPS invites you to participate in the 2008 electric service Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) Public Advisory process. The purpose of SPS’s public advisory process is to provide information to, and receive and consider input from the public regarding the development of the IRP. Topics include the load forecast; evaluation of existing supply and demand-side resources; assessment of need for additional resources; identification of resource options; modeling; and development of the most cost-effective resource portfolio for the IRP. The first of a series of workshops will be held:
| Date: |
July 8, 2008 |
| Time: |
9 a.m. - 4 p.m. (no host lunch) |
| Location: |
1st National Bank
111 E. 5th Street
Roswell, New Mexico |
If you are interested in attending the first workshop or participating at a later point, contact SPS at (806) 378-2340 or spsnmirp@xcelenergy.com. SPS will file its IRP at the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (NMPRC) by July 16, 2009.
