Council approves multi-year MPPA power-purchase commitment

Feb 3, 2025

Council voted to authorize a multi-year power purchase through the Michigan Public Power Agency to cover projected gaps in the city's hedge plan, with staff estimating a not-to-exceed total of $2,627,969.90 distributed across 2027–2029 deliveries.

City staff presented a multi-year purchase commitment coordinated through MPPA intended to smooth the city's energy supply over a five-year delivery profile. Staff framed the purchase as a hedge against anticipated capacity changes in regional generation and said most purchases occur in 2027–2028 with minimal amounts in later years.
