Manitoba Hydro has filed its full 2025 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) Report with the Public Utilities Board (PUB).

Late last year, the utility released its 2025 IRP Road Map that included an early look at the recommended 10-year development plan designed to meet Manitoba’s energy needs and align with net-zero targets.

Representing a complete picture of the integrated resource planning process and its results, the 2025 IRP Report is also now available for public viewing on Manitoba Hydro’s website at hydro.mb.ca.

The 2025 IRP Report provides additional context and information surrounding the previously released road map including the 10-year recommended development plan, an alternative development plan, key learnings from the planning process, near-term actions Manitoba Hydro needs to take, and signposts that will be monitored going forward. The report is accompanied by documentation of the comprehensive analysis and engagement conducted to arrive at the road map.

The provincial government requested Manitoba Hydro file the IRP with the PUB as part of the overall approval process.

“We’re excited to build on our Road Map and present a more complete picture of Manitoba’s energy future with the filing of our 2025 IRP,” said Manitoba Hydro president and CEO Allan Danroth.

“This IRP is the outcome of a thorough, industry-best-practice planning process, informed throughout by engagement with thousands of Manitobans. It presents solid data and analysis in support of our development plan and our alignment with Manitoba’s Affordable Energy Plan and net-zero targets set by government.

“This filing represents the beginning of the final phase of IRP approval. I’m pleased to be able to share this information more broadly now about Manitoba Hydro’s future, and by extension the future of energy in our province.”

The 2025 IRP Report provides more detailed information including a comprehensive risk assessment and deep analysis of resource options, greenhouse gas impacts, financial implications and the trade-offs between different decisions made in planning for the province’s energy future.
