Western Area Power Administration : ウィキペディア英語版 | Western Area Power Administration
(Western Area Power Administration ), or Western, sells and transmits wholesale power from 56 hydropower plants and one coal-fired plant operated by the (Bureau of Reclamation ), the (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ) and the (International Boundary and Water Commission ). The combined annual generation averages more than 25,000 gigawatt-hours per year, which could supply 100 percent of power needs for 2.3 million American homes at prices lower than market averages. The agency is one of four (power marketing administrations ) within the (U.S. Department of Energy ) whose role is to market and transmit wholesale electricity from multi-use water projects. Its service area encompasses a (15-state region ) of the central and western U.S. where its more than 17,000 circuit-mile transmission system carries electricity from the powerplants to preference power customers usually identified in Congressional legislation. Preference power customers include federal and state agencies, cities and towns, rural electric cooperatives, public utility districts, irrigation districts and Native American tribes. They, in turn, provide retail electric service to 40 million consumers in the West. Western employees conduct power sales, transmission operations and maintenance and engineering services at 49 duty stations throughout our service area. Its main offices include a headquarters office in Lakewood, Colorado; regional offices in Billings, Montana; Loveland, Colorado; Phoenix, Arizona; and Folsom, California; and the Colorado River Storage Project Management Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. == Strategic Planning ==
In 2014 Western published its Strategic Roadmap that defines what Western will look like and what role it will play in the energy frontier, with its customers and within the federal government in 2024. The Roadmap provides the vision that will help the agency deliver on its mission, manage resources effectively and operate safely, securely and reliably to move the agency in one direction, meet its customers’ needs and provide the best value as an organization. Through (Strategic Roadmap 2024 ), Western will power the energy frontier for the benefit of generations to come.
