REGIONAL PLANNING

Transmission Plan Project List

The purpose of the WestConnect Transmission Plan Project List Workbook (TPPL Workbook) is to facilitate the collection of and updates to transmission related projects which inform the development of the Base Transmission Plan in each WestConnect biennial regional transmission planning cycle. Refer to the WestConnect Order 1000 Business Practice Manual as well as the latest WestConnect Regional Study Plan for more information regarding the latest Base Transmission Plan. 

Energy Strategies is currently responsible for maintaining the “master” TPPL Workbook.

The WestConnect TPPL Workbook is available to WestConnect members and stakeholders via the instructions outlined below. Once you’ve downloaded either of the TPPL Workbooks, there is a TPPL Workbook Guide which provides instructions on how to use the TPPL Workbook to add or update its project data, and there is a TPPL Training Webinar for additional reference.

WestConnect Members and NDA Signatories:

The complete WestConnect TPPL Workbook is available via the WestConnect Egnyte secure file storage system and contains non-public information. As such, it is made available only to members and non-members who have signed the WestConnect Non-Disclosure Agreement. For those who already have a log-in, the WestConnect TPPL Workbook can be accessed using this link: 24-25 TPPL Folder

A requestor can request access to Egnyte by emailing Energy Strategies.

         Member entity or an entity that has signed the WestConnect NDA.

     then the requestor will receive an email invitation to access Egnyte.  The requestor will
     receive a notification email that indicates they now have permission to access the
     secure area containing the non-public TPPL documents.

b. If the requestor can’t be verified as an authorized representative of a PMC Member
     entity or an entity that has signed the WestConnect NDA, then the request
     for a username and password will be denied.

A public version of the TPPL Workbook is available to WestConnect stakeholders who may want to submit to WestConnect information regarding their planned transmission project(s), not otherwise sponsored by a WestConnect Transmission Owner Member.  The public TPPL Workbook can be accessed by sending a request to Energy Strategies.
