North Carolina’s two municipal power agencies have filed renewable energy and energy efficiency compliance plans with the NC Utilities Commission. The documents explain the agencies’ plans for complying with the obligations set out under the state’s renewable energy and energy efficiency portfolio standards (REPS) legislation. This first annual filing covers 2008, 2009 and 2010. Since compliance starts in 2012, the plans outline efforts prior to the compliance obligation. The power agencies filed the plans on behalf of member cities and listed numerous means of compliance that are currently being investigated by the agencies.

Both North Carolina Municipal Power Agency Number 1 (NCMPA1) and North Carolina Eastern Municipal Power Agency (NCEMPA) Participants are pursuing a variety of compliance options and energy efficiency programs for residential, commercial, industrial and municipal customers.
