GOVERNOR OWENS SIGNS HB 1415 INTO LAW

—New Net Metering Law to Apply to Rural and Cooperative Utilities in Colorado

Colorado Governor Bill Owens signed several bills into law on 3 June that will provide a boost to Colorado’s rural economy. Among these bills was HB 1415, enabling net metering (i.e., utility purchase of customer-generated electricity from renewable energy sources) for customers of Colorado’s rural and cooperative utilities. This new law standardizes net metering for the state and sets the utility purchase price for renewable-generated electricity at avoided cost.

In signing the net metering bill and other legislation into law, Owens said that “rural Colorado is a critical part of our state’s economy, and it’s essential that these areas experience the benefits of good-paying jobs and economic growth…[t]hese bills represent an important step forward in our effort to jump start the rural economy.”

U.S. SENATE COMMITTEE PASSES FOUR-POLLUTANT BILL

—Jeffords’ “Clean Power Act” Moves out of Committee

Legislation introduced by U.S. Sen. Jim Jeffords (I -Vt.) to significantly reduce pollution from electric power plants today passed the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on a 10 to 9 vote. "The Clean Power Act," authored by Jeffords in 2001, requires electric power plants to reduce their emissions of nitrogen oxides by 83 percent, sulfur dioxide by 83 percent, mercury by 90 percent and carbon dioxide by 23 percent from today's levels by 2008.

"Today's action sends a clear message to this Administration that the Senate is willing to engage on clean air and climate change. My bill protects public and environmental health by making swift and deep reductions in pollution from power plants. Everyday that goes by without such action, more people get sick, more forests are damaged, and more degrees of global warming are added."

Senator Jeffords’ office notes that the bill reduces power plant emissions “which cause smog, acid rain, respiratory disease, mercury contamination and global warming.” It also eliminates grandfather exemption for outdated power plants, requiring every power plant to meet the most recent pollution control standards for new pollution sources. The Clean Power Act will also allow power plants to use market-oriented mechanisms, such as emissions trading based on generation performance standards, auctions, or other allocation methods, in order to comply with its emissions reduction requirements. It also sets annual emissions caps for four pollutants that apply beginning in 2008

AD COUNCIL APPROVES NATIONAL EFFICIENCY CAMPAIGN

—Colorado to be Lead State in New Program

The National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO) reports that the Ad Council has officially approved the Colorado-led National Energy Efficiency and Conservation Campaign. Representatives of the Ad Council and partners with the Colorado Governor’s Office of Energy Management and Conservation will be spending the next few months preparing the message and producing the advertisements.

To date, the team has raised over $125,000 from 11 State Energy Offices. The North American Insulation Manufacturers Association (NAIMA) recently increased its commitment for the campaign from $100,000 to $300,000 over the next three years and The Home Depot has committed $300,000 per year for three years, bringing the total of current commitments to $520,000 per year.

NASEO notes that “the typical Ad Council campaign gets $32 million worth of advertising exposure for the cause. That makes this a rare opportunity to raise the awareness of consumers across American with this campaign, which should help all of our individual state programs be more successful.” NASEO adds that the federal government is not currently supporting this effort, thus necessitating state and industry support for this “tremendous outreach opportunity.”

BLM FINDS RENEWABLE ENERGY POTENTIAL IN 11 WESTERN STATES

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) recently issued its draft report on the renewable energy resource potential for power production on federal lands. The report notes 64 public land areas in 11 western states that have a high potential for power production from one or more renewable energy sources, and of those, 19 land areas in 6 western states could draw on three or more renewable energy sources.

The report, prepared in partnership with DOE’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, examined the potential for power production using concentrating solar power, photovoltaic solar power, biomass power, wind energy, and geothermal energy. As part of the report, BLM identified 31 “top-pick” geothermal energy sites located in 17 land areas in five western states.

The BLM released the report for public comment in May, and comments are due by 12 July. See the draft report on the BLM Web site at: http://www.blm.gov/nhp/spotlight/energy/.

NAFTA COMMISSION CALLS FOR CARBON TRADING, RENEWABLE ENERGY

The countries of North America should develop a carbon emissions trading system and promote renewable energy and energy efficiency, according to a report issued on 17 June by the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC). The CEC was established by Canada, Mexico and the United States to build cooperation among the partners in implementing the environmental accords included in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The new report, “Environmental Challenges and Opportunities of the Evolving North American Electricity Market,” was prepared for the CEC by an expert advisory board.

The board specifically recommends forming a North American fund to promote the adoption of best available emission control technologies, energy efficiency measures, and energy conservation within the NAFTA countries. It also urges the NAFTA countries to promote the development and use of renewable energy through increased market-based incentives and funding. And in addition to a carbon emissions trading system, the board recommends continent-wide trading systems for emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxides. See the CEC press release at: http://www.cec.org/news/details/index.cfm?ID=2483.

The full report, as well as nine background papers (including one on renewable energy) and comments from the three governments, is available on the CEC Web site at http://www.cec.org/pubs_docs/documents/index.cfm?ID=842.

The United States is committed to expanding energy trading with its North American neighbors and to strengthening North American energy markets. The North American Energy Working Group, formed to help meet these commitments, issued its first report on 10 June. “North America — The Energy Picture” presents an overview of the energy situation on the continent. See the DOE press release, with a link to the full report, at http://www.energy.gov/HQPress/releases02/junpr/pr02101.htm.

A North American trading system for carbon emissions would represent a significant step toward addressing climate change issues and (as noted in the CEC report) would promote energy efficiency and renewable energy. Although President Bush has rejected the Kyoto

Protocol, which would have mandated some form of carbon emissions trading, the United States is taking action at the federal and state levels to address climate change. According to the Pew Center on Global Climate Change, the business community is also doing its part. See the June 11th report, “Climate Change Activities in the United States,” on the Pew Center’s Web site at http://www.pewclimate.org/projects/us_activities2.cfm.

“FASTM BUS” GOES FROM CLEAN SHEET TO PROTOTYPE IN 90 DAYS

— New Hybrid-Electric Vehicle Unveiled at FutureTruck 2002

A new bus developed for airport shuttle and mass transit use was unveiled on 19 June at the FutureTruck 2002 competition at California Speedway in Fontana, Calif. Called the “FASTM Bus,” the prototype was built by Ford Motor Company and four leading suppliers, including coalition member TransTeq, only 90 days after the first meeting was held to conceive and design it. The hybrid system is based upon technology currently used on the world’s largest fleet of heavy-duty hybrid buses, designed and manufactured by TransTeq, which traverse Denver’s 16th Street Mall and serve 60,000 passengers daily.

Advanced hybrid-electric technology powers the FASTM bus efficiently and with minimal emissions. A generator driven by a Ford 4.2-liter engine operating on propane (LP) gas charges a pack of 28 lead-acid batteries with electricity to power the bus. The hybrid system captures energy normally wasted during idle, eliminates particulate emissions, uses regenerative braking to capture energy during braking to charge the batteries, and allows operation with the engine off (zero emission mode) in environmentally sensitive areas.

Dr. Richard P. McDermott, chairman of TransTeq of Denver, developed the concept for the new energy-efficient, hybrid-electric bus. “The goal was to start from a clean sheet of paper to quickly design and build a completely new hybrid vehicle capable of running in a zero emissions mode,” says McDermott.

The primary use of the FASTM bus is as an airport shuttle transporting passengers and their luggage to and from rental car agencies and hotels. The bus has a capacity of 15 passengers plus their luggage. Such shuttle vehicles are currently a source of pollution at airports as they sit idling, waiting for passengers — often in enclosed, or partially enclosed, areas.

Prospective markets for the bus also include mass transit, “pickup on demand” services, transportation for senior citizens, and other uses requiring medium-duty vehicles.

The companies involved in designing and building the FASTM bus include: Ford (for the engine, fueling system, and E450 chassis), AAM (for driveline modifications), Supreme Industries (for the body and interior of the bus), TransTeq (for hybrid technology and program management) and Magtec (for the electric drive motors and controllers).

BP BRINGS RENEWABLE EDUCATION, SOLAR POWER, AND LOW-SULFUR GASOLINE TO COLORADO

BP America, parent company of coalition member BP Solar, announced on 10 June that it plans to invest $125,000 in a partnership with DOE’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden to develop education and public awareness programs in Colorado that focus on renewable energy and energy efficiency.

The company has already constructed 16 of its “BP Connect” gas stations in the state. The new gas stations incorporate thin-film solar power modules in their canopies, allowing the stations to draw on solar energy for a portion of their power needs.

BP also announced that it is starting to deliver low-sulfur gasoline to cities along Colorado’s Front Range as part of the company’s global Clean Cities Initiative. The company’s lower-sulfur Amoco Ultimate blend contains 85 percent less sulfur than previous Ultimate blends. BP has introduced cleaner fuels in more than 110 cities worldwide, including lower-sulfur premium gasoline in more than 40 U.S. cities.

Within the next three years, 50 percent of BP’s global fuel sales will be cleaner fuels, including new zero-sulfur fuels.

RENEWABLE ENERGY ATLAS OF THE WEST TO BE RELEASED

—Advance Orders Available Through 12 July

Advance orders for the “Renewable Energy Atlas of the West” are being accepted through 12 July at www.energyatlas.org. Authors of the atlas note that it “is a resource for policy makers, advocates, landowners, developers and others engaged in the development of renewable energy resources for electricity generation. The Atlas is a compilation of existing data from a variety of sources, including recently released high-resolution wind maps of the Pacific Northwest. It is the region’s most comprehensive, publicly available atlas of renewable resources and the issues involved in their development. Regional and state maps include wind, solar, geothermal and biomass resources, as well as transmission lines and locations of constraint, existing generating facilities, renewable energy policies, land ownership, load growth, and potential power production analyses. The Atlas contains regional overview maps and detailed state-specific pages for all 11 Western states.”

The Energy Atlas will be available in August in print, on CD-ROM and online as interactive, searchable maps at www.energyatlas.org. It is available as a 70-page document including a regional overview and 11 detailed state sections. State versions of the atlas may also be available in bulk quantities.

KINKO’S EXPANDS COLORADO GREEN POWER PURCHASES THROUGH WINDSOURCE PROGRAM

Coalition member Kinko’s, Inc. and the Boulder Energy Conservation Center (BECC) announced on 11 June that Kinko’s has adopted the Windsource® program for two Boulder-area locations.

“At Kinko’s, we point with pride to our dedication to the environment,” stated Larry Rogero, environmental manager at Kinko’s. “We’re excited to expand our Colorado green power purchases and recognize the positive impact Kinko’s involvement in the Windsource® program will have in maintaining and enhancing social and environmental conditions.” Kinko’s has committed to purchasing 10 percent of its total usage at participating locations as Colorado wind-generated power.

Kinko’s Environmental Vision Statement, adopted in 1997, identifies the environmental performance targets the company aims for as it serves customers. Kinko’s made its first two renewable energy purchases in 1999 and currently buys renewable energy in 12 states, including previous agreements for locations in Ft. Collins, Greeley, and Loveland, Colo. The company’s efforts to reduce its environmental impact also include reducing energy use, offering recycled and alternative papers, and minimizing waste.

“At Boulder Energy Conservation Center, our mission is to facilitate resource conservation and to help forward-thinking companies turn their policies into actions,” said Mona Newton, executive director of BECC. Businesses like Kinko’s help us to spread the message, leading by their example.”

Currently, BECC is recruiting businesses to participate in Windsource®. BECC seeks participants to purchase 2 megawatts (MW) of the recently completed 30 MW of Colorado wind- generated energy. Businesses purchase wind power in 100-kilowatt hour blocks at a premium cost of $2.50 for each block per month. The premium paid for wind is used by Xcel Energy to develop more wind turbines. Customer sign-ups determine how much wind will be built.

In related news, the Minneapolis Star Tribune recently reported that, pending regulatory approval, Xcel Energy plans to introduce its Windsource® green pricing option to its Minnesota-based customers this summer, with pricing at levels similar to Colorado’s. Minnesota law requires the state’s electric utilities to offer customers voluntary options to purchase power generated from renewable sources.

EX-IM BANK ANNOUNCES MEMBERS OF 2002 RENEWABLE ENERGY EXPORTS ADVISORY COMMITTEE

—Coalition Members Represented on Board

The Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank) held the first meeting of its 2002 Renewable Energy Exports Advisory Committee on 10 June at Ex-Im Bank’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. In accordance with President Bush’s National Energy Policy, the advisory committee will provide Ex-Im Bank’s Board of Directors with expert guidance on increasing support for U.S. exports of market-ready, renewable energy products and technologies that generate efficient energy and preserve a clean environment.

Members of the Renewable Energy Exports Advisory Committee represent U.S. renewable energy technology firms, related trade associations, financial institutions, academia and the non-governmental organization community. The chairman is former Deputy Secretary of Energy W. Henson Moore, who also served in the U.S. House of Representatives for Louisiana’s Sixth Congressional District from 1975 to 1987. Moore is currently president and chief executive officer of the American Forest and Paper Association.

Committee members include the heads of the leading Washington-based renewable energy trade associations, as well as former Congresswoman Claudine Schneider, Senior Vice President of coalition member Econergy International Corp. Another coalition member, BP Solar, is represented by its Chief Operating Officer, Atul Arya.

Ex-Im Bank is an independent federal agency that helps finance the sale of U.S. exports, primarily to developing markets, by providing loans, guarantees and export credit insurance. In fiscal year 2001, Ex-Im Bank support $12.5 billion of U.S. exports worldwide, and approximately $400 million of U.S. exports of environmentally beneficial goods and services.

ENERGY DEPARTMENT AWARDS $34.4 MILLION TO COLORADO, ILLINOIS AND PENNSYLVANIA TO WEATHERIZE HOMES OF LOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS

—Colorado’s Share Amounts to $5.54 Million Under Program

Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham announced on 26 June that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is awarding a total of $34,464,828 million to Colorado, Illinois and Pennsylvania to improve the energy efficiency of hundreds of low-income households this year. Colorado’s share of this grant amounts to $5,548,524.

"These weatherization assistance grants will enable states to provide energy-saving home improvements to thousands of low-income families this year," Secretary Abraham said. "Weatherization is a priority of President Bush, as outlined in his National Energy Plan. Every state, the District of Columbia, the Navajo Nation and the Inter Tribal Council of Arizona are receiving weatherization grants this year. Weatherization reduces an average home's energy cost by $218 each year."

DOE notes that “[b]y improving the energy efficiency of homes, DOE's Weatherization Assistance Program reduces the burden of energy costs for low-income Americans, especially households with elderly residents, people with disabilities and children. Weatherization funds will be administered through state energy offices…[f]or every dollar spent, DOE's Weatherization Assistance Program returns $1.80 in energy savings over the life of the weatherized home, based on recent energy prices.”

More information on DOE's programs to improve the energy efficiency of buildings is available on DOE's Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Network website at http://www.eren.doe.gov/buildings or by calling 1-800/DOE-3732.

REALTORS ENTER INTO RENEWABLE ENERGY CERTIFICATE PARTNERSHIP

Renewable Choice Energy (RCE), a Boulder-based marketer of renewable energy certificates, announced a partnership with Coldwell Banker Colorado Landmark, Realtors through which the real estate company will offer RCE’s American Wind certificate product to its home-buying clients. The RCE product, which represents the environmental attributes of Texas-based wind energy generation, recently received Green-e certification.

COALITION MEMBER PROFILE: McSTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS

[Note: this and future Updates will feature one coalition member company with a short profile written and submitted by the member companies]

Energy Awareness at McStain Neighborhoods

Coalition member McStain Neighborhoods is pleased to announce its partnership with the joint Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Department of Energy (DOE) Energy Star Program. To earn the Energy Star label – the highest energy threshold recognized nationwide today – a builder has to consistently exceed the CABO 1993-1995 Model Energy Code by 30% and the new International Energy Conservation Code by an additional 15%. An Energy Star home must score at least an 86 on the 0-to-100 E-Star Colorado home energy rating scale. A representative sampling of 15% of the homes built at McStain communities will be randomly tested by an independent third-party energy rater to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Energy Star Program.

The increased levels of energy efficiency in Energy Star homes are typically met through a variety of technologies and building practices that include tight construction to reduce air infiltration and heat loss, sealed ductwork for better performance of the duct distribution system, improved insulation, high-performance low-e windows and energy-efficient heating and cooling equipment. These quality features will provide McStain homeowners with greater comfort, lower utility bills, healthier indoor air, lower maintenance costs and better long-term value that typically results in higher resale value. It’s also a big plus for the environment.

McStain is also featuring active solar energy systems on two of its model homes at its Lafayette community, The Parks at Indian Peaks. These homes were recently featured in the Boulder County Tour of Solar Homes in October 2001. McStain currently offers the option of both photovoltaic (solar electric) and solar domestic hot water heating systems to homebuyers of single-family homes at The Parks at Indian Peaks. These systems offer homebuyers the potential for cleaner energy choices, lower utility bills, reduced emissions and emergency back-up power in the event of power outages. To date, we have sold two solar domestic hot water heating systems to homebuyers at The Parks at Indian Peaks!

The Willow House sales model at 391 Indian Peaks Trail features an AstroPower Sun UPS 5 photovoltaic system with an array peak power of 550 watts on the “granny” flat above the garage. In the event of any power disruption, there is an emergency bank capacity of 12.5 kWh.

The Bradfield Manor sales model still under construction at 2805 Shoshone Trail features a drainback (open loop) solar thermal heating system that will provide up to 70% of the hot water heating needs for a family of four.
