An IRP is a planning document that provides the public owned utility with guidance to establish policies regarding the City’s electricity supply over the long term planning horizon. Feedback collected through the online survey and workshops will be included in the final 2019 Integrated Resource Plan and will be presented to the City Council and to the State.

The IRP survey, which is also available in Armenian, Spanish and Korean, can be accessed through http://bit.ly/gwpenergysurvey. Hard copies of the survey will be available at one of several community workshops for those customers that do not have access to a computer. To obtain a hard copy, call GWP’s Customer Service Dept. at (855) 550-4497.
