Alrededor de 20 isle\u00f1os se reunieron con algunos miembros de la junta directiva y del equipo directivo de OPALCO para debatir una amplia variedad de temas.<\/p>\n<p>Los miembros hicieron comentarios reflexivos sobre las tarifas el\u00e9ctricas de OPALCO, el ahorro de energ\u00eda, el proyecto de expansi\u00f3n solar de la isla Decatur, el almacenamiento de bater\u00edas, las centrales el\u00e9ctricas virtuales, el aumento de la demanda y las fuentes de energ\u00eda renovables alternativas. Los miembros parecieron disfrutar de la oportunidad de hacer preguntas sobre los cables submarinos, el mantenimiento de la red y el plan futuro de suministro el\u00e9ctrico de OPALCO.<\/p>\n<p>El equipo directivo de OPALCO destac\u00f3 que prev\u00e9 un aumento del 301% en el consumo de electricidad en los pr\u00f3ximos 20 a\u00f1os y que OPALCO debe planificar para este crecimiento a fin de garantizar un suministro el\u00e9ctrico seguro y fiable para la comunidad. El aumento de la demanda regional derivada de los veh\u00edculos el\u00e9ctricos, los centros de datos y el crecimiento demogr\u00e1fico, junto con las normativas sobre energ\u00edas limpias, est\u00e1 provocando un incremento de los costes energ\u00e9ticos en toda la regi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLos miembros de OPALCO tienen invertidos m\u00e1s de 1.040.360 millones de d\u00f3lares en proyectos de eficiencia energ\u00e9tica y energ\u00edas renovables, lo que ha retrasado la necesidad de comprar energ\u00eda en el mercado, que es m\u00e1s cara\u201d, declar\u00f3 el director general Foster Hildreth. \u201cTenemos mucho de qu\u00e9 enorgullecernos como cooperativa y debemos seguir promoviendo el ahorro energ\u00e9tico y buscando soluciones de generaci\u00f3n local para garantizar un futuro energ\u00e9tico sostenible\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>OPALCO seguir\u00e1 buscando maneras de reducir los costos de energ\u00eda para sus miembros. Algunas de las estrategias que implementar\u00e1 incluyen la solicitud de subvenciones cuando est\u00e9n disponibles, s\u00f3lidos programas de eficiencia energ\u00e9tica, energ\u00eda solar y almacenamiento de bater\u00edas para los miembros de la cooperativa, y proyectos a gran escala, incluido un proyecto agrovoltaico en la isla de San Juan. OPALCO planea colaborar con las partes interesadas y el condado de San Juan para modernizar el marco de permisos y los criterios de ubicaci\u00f3n para proyectos de energ\u00eda renovable.<\/p>\n<p>OPALCO desea que la comunidad cuente con las herramientas necesarias para un futuro energ\u00e9tico eficiente y asequible. OPALCO seguir\u00e1 organizando estas charlas informales en diferentes lugares y horarios. El pr\u00f3ximo evento de Charla de Liderazgo se llevar\u00e1 a cabo en la Isla San Juan el 26 de agosto a las 5 p. m. Nos encontraremos en The Grange, en Friday Harbor.
