Chugach has completed an update to its Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The IRP maps the utility’s long-term generation plans designed to meet its decarbonization goals. Read more.

Those goals include reducing our carbon intensity by at least 35% by 2030 and at least 50% by 2040 with no material negative impact on rates or reliability.

A parking lot upgrade project will temporarily change parking for members at the Chugach Headquarters building on Electron Drive. Beginning June 3, member parking will be moved from the south side of the building to a lot on the east side of the building. During the construction period, expected to last through the summer, there will be no payment drop box outside the Chugach lobby, and there will be no electric vehicle charging available. Members are encouraged to set up online payments to avoid any disruption in service. Chugach will install signs during the construction phase directing members to the parking area should they need to visit the lobby.

The Eklutna Hydroelectric Project, owned by Chugach, Matanuska Electric Association, and the Municipality of Anchorage, is a very valuable part of our generation mix. It's the lowest cost energy on the Railbelt and the source of the majority of the city's drinking water. This video looks at the value of the project.

The owners of the Eklutna Hydroelectric Project, Chugach Electric Association , Matanuska Electric Association, and the Municipality of Anchorage, recently responded to the Anchorage Assembly regarding the 1991 Fish & Wildlife Agreement. The Assembly passed a resolution seeking a two-year extension of the Agreement along with other requests and assertions. The owners responded with a letter to the Assembly which was discussed at the Feb. 12, 2024, meeting of the Chugach Board of Directors. Attached below are the Assembly resolution, the owners’ response, and the slides presented at the board meeting.
