The city of Bellevue is soliciting questions and comments from the public regarding Utility Systems Efficiencies’ independent technical analysis of Puget Sound Energy’s Energize Eastside project. Comments and answers to questions from the public will be included in USE’s written report, a draft expected to go to city council in March.

Questions, comments and materials should be submitted to the city before 5 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 12, via email at energizeeastside@bellevuewa.gov with the title, “Ask the Consultant.”

USE has been contracted to evaluate forecast growth and delivery timing to meet that growth in energy use, electrical system reliability and the purpose and timing for electrical system changes in Bellevue.
