This new version of Entergy’s “Ready Resilience” plan was filed at the Commission Monday, April 15, as a motion and request that the Commission vote on the new proposal at their April 19 Business and Executive Meeting. The meeting was held in Many, Louisiana at the Cypress Bend Resort, rather than at their typical location in Baton Rouge. While the docket had eleven participating organizations and companies, Entergy’s motion had no support from any party.
“While The Alliance supports utility spending on grid hardening as we’ve been faced with stronger storms and more extreme weather year after year, we have conflict with the way the utility appears to have circumvented the standard LPSC procedure which allows for all stakeholders to thoroughly review the proposed framework to ensure & fully understand the benefits associated with the investment made by all Entergy Louisiana customers,” said Jessica Hendricks, the Alliance for Affordable Energy’s State Policy Director.
The Alliance is considering its options regarding this vote and process concerns at the Commission.
