The Western Power Pool (WPP), formerly Northwest Power Pool (NWPP), is a regional transmission organization (RTO) that manages the electric grid and wholesale power market for much of western Canada and the western USA. The organization began operating on August 1, 1942. It is currently working with member utilities to implement the Western Resource Adequacy Program (WRAP), an electricity planning and sharing agreement that will improve grid reliability.[1][2]
