Power Planning

PNGC Power manages power supply for its member cooperatives starting with planning months and years in advance, all the way to the moment of power delivery. Reliable load forecasts are a basic component for power planning and PNGC has strong load forecast and power supply models and expertise. Conceptually, the work is quite straightforward; the challenge lies in identifying the relevant inputs.

Integrated Resource Plan

PNGC Power continues to plan for the future through the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) process.

  • Our goal is to find a balance between risk and cost in reliably meeting the electricity needs of our members
  • The planning environment for the IRP is our best estimate of what we believe the landscape will be for the coming years, and the post-2028 world
