Vermont Electric System: Integration of Non-Transmission Alternatives Vermont Public Service Board |
Raab Associates was selected by the Vermont Public Service Board to mediate negotiations among more than a dozen Vermont parties to develop consensus recommendations on incorporating least cost, integrated resource planning guidelines for VELCO’s transmission planning process that would look at both transmission and non-transmission alternatives in a timely and even-handed manner. The mediation included 21 days of face-to-face negotiation sessions and numerous conference calls between November 2005 and August 2006. It resulted in the creation of a new transmission planning system and a settlement on all issues by all the Vermont utilities, the VT Department of Public Service, and the Associated Industry of Vermont which was subsequently approved by the Board and implemented by VELCO. |
