How dispatchable resources enable the clean energy transition

Platte River must prepare for the retirement of 431 megawatts (MW) of dispatchable, coal-fired generation by the end of the decade and address more frequent extreme weather events that can bring dark calms (periods when there is no sun or wind).

All in all, the company plans to open six new locations in Denver and one new location in Fort Collins to do engine tune ups, oil changes, tire rotations and other typical car servicing jobs.

Green Garage offers service packages that include biodegradeable oil and recycled tires. The oil filters used by Green Garage mechanics last longer than traditional ones and the spark plugs generate more fuel efficiency, according to the company.
