Energy-Efficiency Funds and Demand Response Programs, Alaska
Updated July 2007
What public-purpose-funded energy efficiency programs are available in my state?
Alaska has no public-purpose-funded energy efficiency programs.
What utility energy efficiency programs are available to me?
Golden Valley Electric Association offers the Business $ense Program, which provides rebates for lighting efficiency upgrades of up to 50% of the project cost ($20,000 maximum). Currently, the Business $ense Program is not available to government customers.
What load management/demand response options are available to me?
Anchorage Municipal Light & Power has an interruptible rate available to customers with peak demands over 100 kW. In exchange for their willingness to be interrupted, customers on this tariff are not assessed a demand charge.
What distributed energy resource options are available to me?
The Database of State Incentives for Renewable Energy (DSIRE) provides information on programs that offer incentives for renewable distributed generation. Alaska currently has no programs of this type open to federal customers.
Are there energy efficiency programs sponsored by the state government?
No state energy efficiency programs are currently available to federal customers.
What are other sources where I could look for more information?
Federal customers have opportunities to pursue energy efficiency projects with utilities that have area-wide contracts with GSA (e.g., Golden Valley Electric) and, by extension, all other federal agencies. Federal facilities should contact their account executive to determine the level of participation by their local utility.
