The Department of Energy/Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) intends to solicit on a single source basis with Alltricity Network, formerly the Rocky Mountain Electrical League under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for annual membership to Alltricity. Alltricity's membership provides access to a diverse community of utilities and service companies. Alltricity's community is comprised of companies and individuals that are leaders of the industry.

Alltricity Network provides resources and 30 annual events to benefit members of the utility industry. Content is designed to help attendees and members feel productive and knowledgeable as they get back to work armed with practical takeaways. Continuing education credits are given at each event, and members can even bring an Alltricity event to their location.

Events are focused on topics like plant management, public policy, the Smart Grid, power supply planning and projects, finance, system operations, generation, growth, OSHA, renewable technologies, safety, transmission, reliability, overhead and underground distribution, workforce issues, keeping rates low, giving back to the community, NERC/FERC, transmission line design, IT, grounding, arc flash, sustainability, customer service, green building, substation design, distribution line design, health, energy efficiency, security, management, customer service, government regulations, engineering and many other top concerns for the electric energy industry.
