WPP

OVERVIEW

Since publication of its Concept Paper on October 2, 2023, the Western Power Pool received over 30 sets of comments from the public in response to its proposal to form a Western Transmission Expansion Coalition effort to develop a West-wide long-term transmission plan. Join the Western Power Pool along with several co-presenters involved in the effort on Jan. 29 to share updates, next steps, and to take questions and comments from the public.

This meeting is conducted under standard business practices and procedures.
