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).

“Splunk has long recognized the tremendous pool of technology talent here in Colorado,” Jim Lejeal, Splunk vice president and Boulder general manager, said in a statement. “We strive to provide our employees around the world with the best possible work environment and are excited to expand our role in the Boulder business community.”

The Market Building at S’PARK was designed by Phoenix-based architecture firm Worksbureau.

S’PARK, which will include office, retail and residential spaces, will be located on Valmont Road. It is expected to be completed in early 2019. It is being developed by the The John Buck Co. and Boulder-based Element Properties. 

“We’re delighted that Splunk chose the Market Building in S’PARK for its home in Colorado. Splunk and its team members will bring a great energy to the project,” John Buck senior vice president Justin Parr said in a prepared statement. “Our development team and our retail and restaurant partners are excited to welcome them to our neighborhood.”
