Evergy Kansas IRP Comments

Client: Sierra Club

Authors: Senior Researcher Tyler Comings and Researcher Joshua Castigliego

Senior Researcher Tyler Comings and Researcher Joshua Castigliego assisted the Sierra Club in comments on the Evergy Kansas Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). AEC had several criticisms of the Evergy plan, including that the company 1) failed to choose one of its alternative plans that was lower-cost and had accelerated coal unit retirements; 2) failed to conduct true optimization of coal unit retirements; 3) inflated the costs of new renewable resources; and 4) failed to consider any battery storage.
