Year | MWs Purchased | MWs Used | MWs Sold |
2016 | 741,941 | 629,466 | 112,475 |
2017 | 969,244 | 648,988 | 320,256 |
2018 | 1,067,364 | 678,759 | 388,605 |
projected 2019 | 1,260,200 | 680,000 | 580,200 |
This shows that the purchased power is increasing at a rate of 19.3% per year over 3 years.
The electricity used is increasing at a rate of 2.63% per year over 3 years.
The power sold is increasing at a rate of 73% per year over 3 years.
What is going on with these contracts? Why is the city purchasing power at a 19.3% growth rate?
The city contracted amount should have been stable after 2015 when the two wind contracts, EDF and AEP, were in place as well as the gas contract with MEA.
No new power should have been purchased until July 2018 when the solar contract came on line.
The city needs to share those contracts with the people as GUS is owned by the people of Georgetown.
