ColumbiaGrid publishes 5-year Strategic Plan: The ColumbiaGrid (CG) 5-year Strategic Plan has been posted. This plan was created by the CG board and officers, in collaboration with the CG membership, to ensure that CG will continue to successfully carry out its mission- to improve the planning, expansion, and efficient use of the NW transmission grid- in the midst of a rapidly changing environment, and thereby provide sustainable value to its members.

WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY

"Chelan PUD is a strong supporter of ColumbiaGrid and the work that’s accomplished through the transmission Planning and Expansion Functional Agreement (PEFA). As a result of that process, the mid-C utilities (Chelan, Grant and Douglas PUDs) and Bonneville Power Administration were able to reach an agreement that defined the need for a new transmission line, as well as determine who will construct, own and pay for the facility. Those difficult decisions were made successful through the expert and independent expertise of the ColumbiaGrid staff."
