ITP Provides Scenario Consulting Support to the Western Electricity Coordinating Council on Future North America Electric Transmission Needs
Innovative Technology Partnerships, LLC (ITP) has been contracted by the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) to provide consulting support with an effort to create future scenarios to assist in the forecasting of electric transmission needs for western North America. The Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) is the Regional Entity responsible for coordinating and promoting bulk electric system reliability in the Western Interconnection. WECC is geographically the largest and most diverse of the eight Regional Entities that have Delegation Agreements with the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC). WECC's service territory extends from Canada to Mexico. It includes the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia, the northern portion of Baja California, Mexico, and all or portions of the 14 Western states between. Due to the vastness and diverse characteristics of the region, WECC and its members face unique challenges in coordinating the day-to-day interconnected system operation and the long-range planning needed to provide reliable electric service across nearly 1.8 million square miles. Principal Partner, Jack Jekowski, who leads ITP’s scenario planning efforts, provided an initial Webinar workshop on scenario planning to over 80 Stakeholders in mid-May, and will be working with WECC to define the methodologies and process that will be used to provide the necessary forecasting for transmission needs over the next 20-30 years.

ITP Presents Strategic Implications of Current Events and U.S. Nuclear Policy on the Future of the Nuclear Security Enterprise, the Nuclear Stockpile and Deterrence
ITP Principal Partner, Jack Jekowski, made a presentation on the future of the Nuclear Security Enterprise (NSE) to the Southwest Chapter of Institute of Nuclear Materials Management, in Taos, New Mexico. This presentation was the fifth consecutive year that Mr. Jekowski has presented an analysis of policy and events related to the nuclear policy of the U.S. and its impact on the NSE (see What's New entry May 2009). The presentation, entitled “Complex Transformation: The ‘Nuclear Spring”, provides a detailed look into the Obama Administration’s efforts since the historic Prague speech of April,
2009, to move the world toward the goal of eliminating nuclear weapons. Updated timelines (11x17 format) were also provided to the more than 40 attendees at the workshop on National Security Critical Uncertainties, and three timelines associated with the Obama Administration (January-July, 2009; July-December, 2009; and January-July, 2010) .

ITP to Help Mission Support Alliance at the Hanford Reservation Re-Scope Contract With DOE Based on New Policy and Mission Guidance
ITP has been asked by the Mission Support Alliance (see What’s New January 12, 2010) to support an effort to re-scope their contract with DOE as a result of dramatic changes to policy and mission, driven in part by the ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) funding that has been provided to the Richland Office. This intensive effort is expected to take at least six months, with a number of Subject Matter Experts supporting the requirements.
