Moran says the Southwestern Power Administration Fund Establishment Act would give the SWPA the jurisdiction to operate on a self funding revolving U. S. Department of Treasury Fund to help provide long term stability, allowing the SWPA more stable funds in order to lower customer rates, which can be volatile due to market demand and weather.
Moran says it is critical that Kansans have access to reliable electricity at stable rates, especially during extreme and dangerous weather.
