Not all conservation is equal

Some conservation measures provide greater value to rate payers• Who benefits? Conservation participant,

rate-payer, society?Considerations include:• Time of day (peak)• Fuel costs

Page 14: Community Dialogue Part II: Powering Our Future · Community Dialogue Part II: Powering Our Future Meeting Gainesville’s ... • General options. 4 Our need for electricity continues

14

Best conservation methods reduce peak demand

Peak demand• Hot summer days• Cold winter mornings and evenings

Peaking generation units• Expensive fuels and less efficient

How much more energy conservation can we get by 2010?

Summer Demand* 5.4 MWWinter Demand 2.4 MWAnnual Energy 10,500 MWh/Year

* 3.6 MW included in current forecast

Page 25: Community Dialogue Part II: Powering Our Future · Community Dialogue Part II: Powering Our Future Meeting Gainesville’s ... • General options. 4 Our need for electricity continues

25

The current conservation model: utility companies modify

customer behavior

How do we do this?• Select energy conservation measures that

benefit all rate payers• “Sell” customers one at a timeHow successful is this approach?• Participants to date: 54% of residential

dwelling units and 40% of commercial buildings

Page 26: Community Dialogue Part II: Powering Our Future · Community Dialogue Part II: Powering Our Future Meeting Gainesville’s ... • General options. 4 Our need for electricity continues

26

What if we change this model?

GRU provides funding to give customers incentives to shift their peak use and conserve energyPrivate businesses (not GRU) run programs and aggregate demand and energy reductionsHow much will we pay?• Value of avoided capacity• Fuel cost savings• Market value of green power

Electricity from Renewable Resources

Launch on Nov. 302 cent per kWh premiumBlend of renewable resources• Biomass/landfill gas produced from

decomposing garbage at the Southwest Landfill in Archer

• Solar produced locally• Wind purchased from other energy

companiesSign up forms available in the back

Renewable Resource Factors

Costs more to produceMust determine if customers will pay more• Sign up rate on a nationwide basis is about

1 percent• Some communities are higher

Many environmental benefits, but also some disadvantagesContinue to implement as feasible

32

Renewable resource opportunity?

Biomass• 300 tons per day of waste wood

potentially available within a 25 mile radius*

• 109,500 wet-tons/year of biomass• This amount of biomass production could

support approximately 12.5 MW of electrical generation

World Climate ChangeGreenhouse gases• Increasing due to industrialization• Believed to contribute to global warming• Include Water Vapor, CO2, Methane, Ozone, NOx,

Fluorocarbons, and Particulates, among othersWarming trend this century is partly because we are coming out of a “little ice age”Forecasted effects of greenhouse gases vary widely due to confounding factors
