OVERVIEW OF TVA DRAFT 2025 IRP + EIS
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? TVA will review and evaluate public input and conduct further analysis to appropriately incorporate feedback provided during the public comment period. Public comments on the draft IRP and EIS will be addressed in the final EIS. The final IRP, which is expected to be published in spring/summer 2025, will include power supply mix ranges, recommendations for strategic portfolio direction through 2035 and information on factors that will influence portfolio direction from 2035 to 2050.
The final EIS will evaluate the final IRP recommendations to determine the environmental impacts.
After the Board reviews and makes a decision on the final IRP recommendations, TVA will publish a Record of Decision. If the TVA Board accepts the IRP recommendations, the IRP will be TVA’s compass for power generation decisions as well as for long-term operational and financial planning. WE NEED YOUR INPUT TVA encourages stakeholders and the public to review the draft IRP and EIS and provide comments on the analysis and what they would like to see in the power system between now and 2050. The public comment period for the draft 2025 IRP and EIS runs through Dec. 11, 2024. There are a handful of ways to provide input – by submitting a comment form at the in-person open houses, by submitting comments online via the TVA website (tva.com/irp) or by emailing IRP@tva.gov with the subject line “Draft 2025 IRP Comments.” Comments also can be mailed to Kelly Baxter, NEPA Project Manager, 400 W. Summit Hill Drive, WT 11B, Knoxville, Tennessee, 37902. We look forward to stakeholder and public feedback on the IRP to help shape the region’s future energy system.
