  2. The Good Old Days

  3. Marketing Electricity In The 60’s & 70’s Electric Heat Water Heating Appliances

  4. Energy Awareness In The 60’s & 70’s Insulation Windows Changing from window to central air conditioning Doors

  5. Energy Efficiency for Rural Electric Cooperatives Clark W. Gellings Vice President – Innovation March 21, 2007 Las Vegas, NV

  6. What is Energy Efficiency? • The ability to do the same or more with less energy!

  7. What Do Co-Ops Do? Or is it – The basic consumer-member tenant for a co-op is: Serve what?

  8. Why Should You (We) Care? • Save consumer-members’ money • Address environmental concerns • Diversify your resource portfolio • Relieve stress on the system Satisfy their needs?

  9. Consumer Members Care

  10. Energy Efficiency – 5th Fuel Energy Efficiency 6.0% Petroleum 3.0% Petroleum 3.0% Coal 49.7% Natural Gas 18.7% Natural Gas 16.7% Coal 43.7% OtherRenewables 5% OtherRenewables 2.3% Nuclear 19.3% Nuclear 19.3% Hydroelectric 6.5% Hydroelectric 6.5% 2005 Resource Mix Could This be 2015 Resource Mix?

  26. More Information… In addition to your energy company, here are some more home energy efficiency information resources • California Energy Commission (1-800-555-7794) • www.energy.ca.gov/efficiency/index.html • Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Network (EREN) (1-800-363-3732) • www.eren.doe.gov • Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) • www.epa.gov • Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Energy Crossroads • eetd.lbl.gov/links.html

  27. Energy Awareness In The 80’s & 90’s To The Present • Additional insulation values • Geothermal heating and cooling • Electric thermal storage (off peak sales) • Water heater change outs (from gas to electric) • Home sizes from 1500 sq. ft. to 2500 sq. ft. to 3000 sq. ft. to no limit…

  28. Planning For The Future • Conductor sizing • Transformer sizing & losses, DOE requirements • Vegetation management…line losses • Smart meters missed legislation this session (HB123 Tanya Pullin Rep. South Shore) • Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA)

  29. Planning For The Future (Cont.) • Graphic Information Systems (GIS) • Automated Meter Reading (AMR) • Load Management (LM) • Outage Management Systems (OMS) • Substation automation • Customer information systems

  30. Line Losses… Line Losses…Who Pays? kWh not sold after purchase

  31. Reliability Issues • SAIDI – System Average Interruption Duration Index • CAIDI - Customer Average Interruption Duration Index • SAIFI - System Average Interruption Frequency Index Service Restoration SB7 Sen. Ed Worley failed legislation The PSC latest fact finder order has SAIDI information in its text. Case #2006-0494 reliability measures and certain maintenance practices

  32. The Underground Assessment • Underground service installation…Florida • Some consideration for legislation this session near filed • Gone on to review…residential and scenic areas
