The Western Interconnection Regional Advisory Body (“WIRAB”) submitted comments on the Western Electricity Coordinating Council’s (WECC’s) Strategic Direction Planning Process, 2017-2020 Operating Plan, and Strategic Direction Outline. WIRAB’s comments encourage the WECC Board to adopt an open and transparent procedural process to develop WECC’s strategic priorities and direction; recommend specific strategic priorities for WECC’s 2017-2020 planning cycle; and advise the WECC Board to redefine its Strategic Direction Outline document as Key Reliability Challenges in order to transform the Outline into a durable document, capable of enduring multiple planning cycles.
