About <strong>Knoxville</strong><br />

<strong>Knoxville</strong> has been the hub of east Tennessee since its founding in 1791. The best of its Appalachian heritage<br />

remains today - a strong work ethic, a family-centered community and an intense respect for the natural<br />

beauty that surrounds the region.<br />

While <strong>Knoxville</strong>’s roots run deep, it remains at the core of the electric power industry for the future and the<br />

technology-based world of business. <strong>Knoxville</strong> boasts of more than its history:<br />

One of the country’s five national labs<br />

sits in <strong>Knoxville</strong>’s backyard in Oak<br />

Ridge.<br />

The main campus of the University<br />

of Tennessee is home to nationally<br />

acclaimed schools of engineering,<br />

business and law, as well as, the state’s<br />

favorite pastime, UT Football.<br />

Seventeen additional colleges and<br />

training programs in the region produce<br />

a ready supply of trained workers.<br />

All these organizations feed the<br />

strong entrepreneurial spirit found in<br />

<strong>Knoxville</strong>.<br />

<strong>Knoxville</strong> is not a secret. The area has been recognized by<br />

national lifestyle and business magazines as a fantastic place<br />

to live and work. Some of those rankings include: • Forbes<br />

magazine, Best Places for Business & Career – ranked #5<br />

• Expansion Management magazine, America’s 50 Hottest<br />

Cities for Business Relocation & Expansion – ranked #9<br />

• Places Rated Almanac Millenium Edition,Best Place to Live<br />

for cities under 1 million population – ranked #1<br />

• Sperling’s Best Places, Best Places for Affordable Living –<br />

ranked #8<br />

• Money Magazine, Best Places to Retire – ranked #10<br />

• Inc. magazine, Top Mid-Size City Boom Towns (for Job<br />

Growth) – ranked #24<br />

• Hotwire.com, America’s Most Affordable Travel<br />

Destinations – ranked #4


The <strong>Knoxville</strong>-Oak Ridge Region in the center of the Eastern US at the junction of 3 major interstate highways.<br />

An ideal location for the movement of people and goods, the region is within a day’s drive of 75% of<br />

the U.S. marketplace.<br />

Many regional businesses take advantage of this strategic location to implement just-in-time delivery<br />

practices. A major intersection for air, motor, rail and waterway transportation, the region is a prime location<br />

for both domestic<br />

and international<br />

commerce.<br />

Utilities<br />

The municipal and<br />

cooperative distributors<br />

of the Tennessee Valley<br />

Authority (TVA)<br />

supply electricity in<br />

The <strong>Knoxville</strong>-Oak<br />

Ridge-Smoky Mountains Region.<br />

Industrial electricity rates in the region are: 12.5% below the national average.<br />

Commercial electricity rates are 15% below the national average.<br />

Residential rates are 22% below the national average.<br />

TVA is the largest public power producer in the nation, serving more than 8.3 million people, and is among<br />

the most reliable. TVA has never dropped firm load to any industrial customer in its history and has a<br />

reliability rate of 99.999%, the highest in the nation. TVA generates 152 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity<br />

annually, or enough power to meet the needs of nearly 10 million homes. TVA also manages the Tennessee<br />

River, the nation’s fifth-largest river system. The Tennessee Valley: Prepared for Future Demand<br />

Demand is forecasted to exceed generating capacity in many areas of the US by mid decade. Kiplinger<br />

reports that the West Coast, Northwest, Northeast, Southwest, and some Midwestern cities will be vulnerable.<br />

The Southeast US is one area in the country that will have ample power supply.<br />

This area is also known as the Tennessee Technology corridor (http://archive.knoxmpc.org/plans/nwcnty/15_<br />

ttcda.htm) which is also the home of many other technology companies – most notably the Electric Power<br />

Research Institutes (EPRI) <strong>Knoxville</strong> location – only a half mile away from our new offices. EPRI’s<br />

<strong>Knoxville</strong> Office provides an integrated portfolio of Research, Development, Application and Services to<br />

the entire power industry value chain... from generation through transmission and distribution to end-use.<br />

<strong>EnerNex</strong> partners with EPRI on various projects, most notably the EPRI IntelliGrid.
