As a follow up to the Strategic Issues Paper, CVEA retained the Financial Engineering Company to provide an independent review of what generation options might provide lower costs to CVEA members.  The primary goal of the study was to determine whether the high fuel cost associated with the diesel plants could be displaced with another, less expensive, generation alternative.   The resulting report entitled Alternative Generation Review evaluated a number of generation alternatives while taking into account the contractual and seasonal limitations of producing power on CVEA’s system.
