Strategic Issues Discussion Paper
In September 2006 Copper Valley Electric published a Strategic Issues Discussion Paper.
The purpose of the strategic issues document is to (1) provide a refresher on how CVEA makes electricity, (2) discuss the impacts of high oil prices and what CVEA has been doing about it, (3) discuss alternatives to burning diesel to generate electricity, and (4) discuss other issues which could affect power costs including the potential for generating electricity with renewable technologies.A full electronic copy (in PDF format) is available by clicking Strategic Issues Discussion Paper.
