Central Region Public Power Partner Stakeholders

Announcement of Meeting on July 27, 2012

Notice

Tennessee Valley Authority and the Central Public Power Partners (CPPP) invite regional stakeholders to participate in an ongoing CPPP stakeholders group. The next Stakeholder meeting will be held on July 27, 2012 in Chattanooga, Tennessee at the Tennessee Valley Authority Headquarters.

Background

The purpose of the CPPP stakeholder group is to facilitate regional and inter-regional planning studies, provide a process allowing stakeholders to request economic planning studies and provide access to planning data, assumptions, criteria, and results of studies. This process will help develop mutual benefits from stakeholder involvement in regional planning and will address CPPP’s voluntary participation in an open and transparent planning process.

In addition to regional activities, the CPPP participates in inter-regional planning through relationships with the 1) PJM, MISO, and SPP utilities, 2) Southeastern Interregional group comprising the main transmission-owning members of SERC and 3) Eastern Interconnection Reliability Assessment Group ERAG. This will facilitate the participation of CPPP regional stakeholders with interests in inter-regional projects.
