At least once a year, Commerce and the UTC hold a meeting with representatives of investor- and consumer-owned utilities, regional planning organizations, transmission operators, and other stakeholders to discuss the current, short-term, and long-term adequacy of energy resources to serve the state’s electric needs. Based on RCW 19.280.065, Commerce and the Utilities and Transportation Commission (Commission) are required to hold these annual meetings and provide a summary to the governor and legislature.
Meeting topics discussed include recent assessments of electricity demand and supply, the electric power industry’s progress in developing a coordinated resource adequacy program, and other actions utilities are taking to ensure resource adequacy. Meeting summaries are submitted to the governor and Legislature within 60 days of each meeting, and meetings will be held through 2031.
