Editor's Notes
- May 2011 Council approved existing contract.
- Mention that energy supply prices have actually gone down but the losses, capacity, transmissions have gone up. Averaging these costs over a three year contract makes it less expensive than the 1 year. Mention about getting supply only price for years 4 and 5 but too much uncertainty around pass-through costs
- City’s uses 23 million kWh per year Mention about getting supply only price for years 4 and 5 but too much uncertainty around pass-through costs
- The 5% rule would be a net increase of $60,000 annually for 100% Green Energy over the brown price or $5,000 per month
- Annual usage: 23,000,000 kWh Annual cost: $1,125,000 Have list of buildings with audits ready Come up with stats for lighting retrofits
- The 5% rule would be a net increase of $60,000 annually for 100% Green Energy over the brown price or $5,000 per month Have list of buidlings with audits
