MR. PELUNIS-MESSIER explained that it is a standard of measuring how cold an area is for the purpose of comparing the climate of different regions. REPRESENTATIVE NAGEAK asked for data from the house in Anaktuvuk Pass built by the Cold Climate Housing Research Center, Inc. MR. PELUNIS-MESSIER answered that he worked on the solar array and wind turbine for that project and said it is a fantastic success. The house was cheaper to construct than standard homes in that area and uses much less fuel. The style of construction incorporated Native knowledge of the area by using traditional sod materials. He returned attention to the presentation, stressing that the reason Fairbanks is having air quality problems is because inefficient homes have been built there for the last 50 years. A graph showed that over the average life cycle of a building, 84 percent of the costs are operating expenses such as heating, maintenance, and electricity, thus spending more upfront to increase efficiency will result in significant reductions in the overall life cycle costs [slide 10]. Mr. Pelunis-Messier said biomass is a name for burning wood more efficiently by using gasification technology. Tanana's biomass project is an example of how heat can be provided locally in most of the Interior. In 2006, the City of Tanana was importing about 30,000 gallons of diesel fuel at a cost of $150,000 to heat the washeteria, sewer loop, shop, and fire hall. The city manager instigated biomass projects and in 2013, Tanana only needed to import 12,000 gallons of heating fuel. The savings stayed in the community and paid residents to harvest wood, creating job opportunities [slide 11]. A "rain barrel model" is a way to visualize money that goes in and out of a community; for example, energy dollars come into a community from government sources, and if those funds are used to pay for fuel oil or gasoline, the funds leave the community immediately, which is a dynamic that needs to change. To facilitate change, residents are working with AEA and in partnership with regional housing authorities to install biomass projects. 8:30:43 AM REPRESENTATIVE HUGHES asked whether Tanana is using biomass for its city buildings, and whether the supply of fuel is sustainable. MR. PELUNIS-MESSIER indicated yes. HOUSE ENE COMMITTEE -5- March 27, 2013PDF Image | ALASKA ENERGY PROBLEMS SOLUTIONS
