2021 Power Plan Mid-Term Assessment

About the Mid-Term: Because of the rapid and significant challenges facing the electric system, the Council has decided to provide this dynamic assessment, updating recommendations as new information becomes available. At least quarterly, the Council’s power committee will review and approve its updates.


2021 Plan Scenarios

  • Robustness of Energy Efficiency
  • Early Retirement of Coal Generation
  • Change in Reliance on Extra-Regional Markets for Resource Adequacy
  • Organized and Limited Markets for Energy and Capacity
  • Analyze the Bonneville Portfolio
  • Greenhouse Gas Cost Tipping Points
  • Paths to Decarbonization

Also see how the Council uses scenario analysis, and more details about each scenario.
