8 megawatts over time. And with that im happy to take any questions you may have. We also have representatives from tjpa here if you have specific questions for them. Thank you. Thank you, ms. Hale. Actually, i have a few questions. Ill start with im very supportive of this and i want to thank the agency for working through tjpa as well, and also supervisor kim for sponsoring this. Thank you. So, my question isnt so much about this particular project, but i would like to see more like this. I think a lot of people dont realize that San Francisco Public Utilities commissions power enterprise generates an enormous potential to provide power for use in San Francisco.
