Are there any storage technologies that BPA is also looking at? What are the time frames and expected costs of these?

Whose responsibility is it to provide a stable source of power -- BPA (transmission company) or the Indep Power Producers?

The focus seems to be on luring big companies particularly in manufacturing. Is there also a push on smaller companies and companies that work not on manufacturing but research and technology development? Is the pay back in terms of job creation and other benefits to the local economy not as great for companies other than manufacturing? Or is this based on the timeframe of the benefits?
