IRP Advisory Council
UniSource is forming a Resource Planning Advisory Council (RPAC) which will solicit stakeholder input and provide transparency on development of the company’s 2026 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The RPAC will foster in-depth discussions with engaged community stakeholders. Members will include residential and business customers, environmental and low-income advocates, and representatives from local governments and educational institutions.
UniSource believes that input from a diverse, knowledgeable group of community members will inform a long-term plan that helps our community achieve a flexible resource plan that maintains reliable and affordable electric service.
