The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) has released a report listing 12 actions Congress could take to reform TVA to improve affordability and reliability.
Key takeaways:
- TVA’s planned investment to meet growing power demand may lead to a request for congress to raise the $30 billion TVA debt limit. The report asserts that raising the debt limit should come with more congressional oversight.
- The “Menu of Congressional Options” in the report includes board reforms to add expertise, altering the IRP process to include regional transmission and distributed energy resource planning, and dismantling the “fence.”
The full ACORE report is available on ACORE.org.
