FortisBC has filed its long term Resource Plan with the BC Utilities Commission. The Resource Plan deals with FortisBC’s long term generation needs and differs from FortisBC’s System Development Plan which deals directly with power lines and substations. The Resource Plan examines the capacity of our existing sources of power generation and proposes solutions to supply our existing and forecast customer load requirements. The Resource Plan provides new information and analyses on FortisBC’s current and forecasted energy requirements, current resource adequacy and presents a strategy to close any forecasted energy gaps.

The 2007 BC Energy Plan plays a significant role in FortisBC’s evaluation of potential sources for additional power, providing public policy guidance on directions that BC would like to take in making these types of decisions.
