The Central Oregon Energy Resilience Plan was developed to strengthen the region’s capacity to anticipate, withstand, and recover from power outages while safeguarding critical services and community health. This initiative is a collaborative effort among the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council and Crook, Deschutes, and Jefferson counties. With technical leadership from Parametrix and funding from the Oregon Department of Energy, the team assessed energy vulnerabilities and mapped essential infrastructure. The plan recommends both immediate, low-cost solutions and a long-term shift toward renewable energy systems and microgrids, ensuring sustained public safety and resilient communities as the region grows.

The City of Wenatchee, Washington, in collaboration with Sustainable North Central Washington, completed its first comprehensive GHG inventory using global and state guidelines. Led by Parametrix, the project collected local and consumption-based emissions data, conducted calculations, and established a detailed audit trail. The results informed a baseline report and a strategic roadmap, including input from city, utility, and community stakeholders. This inventory created Wenatchee’s first quantitative emissions baseline, shaping a strategic plan that targets impactful, cost-effective GHG reduction strategies in areas like building electrification and energy efficiency.
