Electricity Costs over Time APA, 2007, Valdez Steve Colt Institute of Social and Economic Research University of Alaska Anchorage
Fundamental Cost Equation Fuel price ($/gal) x Diesel Efficiency (gal/kWhd) = Fuel cost per diesel kWh x Diesel fraction of generation = Fuel cost per overall kWh + Nonfuel cost per kWh = Overall cost of power ($/kWh)
equals:Avg fuel cost per diesel kWh2006$ / diesel kWh Fuel price
