ESA Files Comments with Indiana’s Utility Regulatory Commission on Updating Integrated Resource Planning to Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission
ESA today is filing comments in response to the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission’s request for comments (Docket RM15-06) on proposed revisions to the Commission’s rule requiring electric utilities to prepare and submit integrated resource plans (IRPs). In our comments, ESA calls for additional revisions to facilitate effective consideration of energy storage, including use of up-to-date cost estimates and forecasts, modeling tools that employ sub-hourly intervals, and instituting a “net cost” analysis to better capture flexibility benefits.
