IRP Preferred Portfolio

ID Number: IRP Preferred Portfolio

2026 IRP

The IRP Preferred Portfolio product will be a report on candidate expansion plans for the IRP. The process will involve the characterization of the existing system, the characterization of candidate resource options for selection, and a development of various expansion plans for scenarios established by the IRP Objectives.

Working Group update meetings will be held throughout 2026 on a monthly basis as work is performed by the RRC. Then, as expansion plans are finalized, Working Group meetings will occur on a more frequent basis to give input on those plans.
