Electricity is another significant operating expense, particularly during the months of October through March. The model assumes the greenhouse will require 62kW of electric power, primarily for lighting, 16 hours per day. The greenhouse is laid out with 48x 1,000 Watt lights installed for an optimal production area of 4,300ft2. The total electricity costs are approximately $30,200 per year assuming a price of 10¢/kWh. This electric rate would be a wholesale value, and significantly less than the 10 to 14¢/kWh rate that the operation would pay if purchasing power directly from GVEA, the utility company in and around Fairbanks (GVEA 07). Marketing and bags to seal the lettuce for sale would be an additional expense of $0.25 per head, or $37,000 per year. Assuming a local market for the lettuce, the model does not include transportation costs.
