The website says 350, but Tom DeLong tells me that there are now more than 500 SNAP purchasers (people who contribute extra money to pay alternative energy producers in the SNAP program). The site also says that "GVEA is well on its way" to meeting its goal of producing 10 percent of its peak load from alternative sources. However, it doesn't say what that peak load is (anticipated to be 230 MW) or what percentage is actually produced from alternative energy sources. Or at least, I can't find it. Does anyone know what this is, and how close or far GVEA is from meeting its goal?
It would be helpful, on this page, to have contact e-mails or links to the members of the Green Power Advisory Committee. I know several of these people, so I have that info, but others may not.
Golden Valley Electric Association is a member owned cooperative of over 45,000 services in a large area of Interior Alaska served by the road system. This blog seeks to provide information and encourage dialog amongst members, board members and MAC members. If GVEA members (even board and staff!) would like to contribute to this blog, you can email me at gvea(at)chena.org. Anyone can comment on an existing blog entry.

The new bills
It's been a few months now since the new-format bills came out, so I've had time to get used to them. Guess what?
I still don't like them.
The little bar graph is nice and all, but I don't know exactly HOW much electricity I used each month in the last year. A close approximation, yes, and a nice visual quickie look-see, yes, but exact amounts? No. I have to go to my old bills and look 'em up.
Not so convenient.
Okay, done now.
