Integrated Resource Plan Drafterv0.1.1

An IOU must file a full IRP with a state PUC every two years. This scenario guides utility analysts through load forecasting, resource need assessment, and portfolio selection to produce a compliant filing packet.

A new CCA entering its first IRP cycle needs to establish load forecasts, resource inventories, and a preferred portfolio while meeting statutory requirements for transparency and equity considerations.

A utility under a state mandate to achieve 80% clean energy by 2030 must incorporate aggressive retirements and renewable additions while maintaining reliability and minimizing cost impacts.

A rural electric cooperative with a small planning team needs a streamlined IRP that uses default assumptions and existing contracts to meet PUC requirements without extensive modeling.

Following a major fuel price shock, a utility must update its IRP with sensitivity analyses to demonstrate portfolio resilience and request PUC approval for revised resource additions.

Offer a cloud-based platform that automates IRP drafting, with per-seat or utility-size pricing. Recurring revenue from annual subscriptions.

Provide expert-led IRP drafting services on a project basis, combining AI tools with human regulatory specialists. Charge per filing cycle or hourly.

Integrate the drafter as a feature in established utility planning software (e.g., energy modeling platforms), licensing per user or per filing.
