Bruce Driver, Western Resources Advocates - Testimony Before the House Committee on Energy and Utilities
WRA is an environmental law and policy center serving the American Interior West.Since 1991, WRA has promoted a western electric system that lowers electricity costs, reduces economic risk and protects the natural environment of the region. Ordinarily,WRA does not appear before the Kansas legislature. However, because the legislation before the Committee will affect the future of the planned Holcomb pulverized coal unitsand because a substantial share of the power generated at these units would be available to Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association (Tri-State) in Colorado andelsewhere in WRA’s region, WRA believed it could offer some perspectives that would be useful to the Committee. In this regard, I do not take a position on House Bill 2711.Rather, I provide information that may provide context for the Committee’s consideration of the legislation.
