“Integrated Resource Plan: TVA’s Environmental and Energy Future.
The Clarksville Chapter of the Audubon Society will be holding their regular meeting on Thursday September 3rd at 7:30 p.m. in conference room E106 in the Sundquist Science Building at Austin Peay State University. Randall Johnson of TVA will be presenting a program titled “Integrated Resource Plan: TVA’s Environmental and Energy Future.” Light refreshments will be served.
On June 15, 2009 TVA kicked off an 18 month long project to prepare a new Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) entitled TVA’s Environmental and Energy Future. The purpose of the IRP is to develop a flexible portfolio of supply and demand side options that TVA can use to meet the valley’s electrical demand needs for the next 20 years. The portfolios developed will be evaluated for several criteria including capital and fuel costs, reliability, possible environmental impacts including climate change, compliance with existing and anticipated future regulations, and other factors.
