Integrated Resource Plan Task Force Meeting Minutes
The Integrated Resource Plan Task Force reviewed Sections 2 (Introduction) and 3 (System Overview) of the draft Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). Key discussion topics included the need to broaden the IRP's framing beyond cost and reliability to explicitly incorporate environmental impacts, resiliency, sustainability, and adaptability as per the City's Energy Policy. The Task Force requested further quantitative environmental data, clarified Prairie State Energy Campus ownership and liability risks, requested updated data on electric vehicle adoption and distributed solar, and identified the need for clearer load-profile and PJM billing explanations. Members emphasized the importance of presenting the IRP as a data-forward comparison of alternatives rather than a justification for a preferred strategy, and staff committed to addressing these gaps in subsequent revisions and findings worksheets.
