The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of electricity planning in the Pacific Northwest conducted by the Power Council so as to gain a preliminary understanding of how the process can be applicable or adapted to other regions in the US. Following this introduction, a short discussion on the background of the Northwest Power Act is provided. Then, the roles of the Power Council and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) under the Act and other statutes are briefly described. Subsequently, the planning process including the public involvement process is explained. Tentative observations are then discussed in some detail.
