Below is the three-step approach developed by AEA to respond to the committee’s advice. 1. Use a regional population weighted “burden of energy cost” metric to establish regional funding bands. The burden of energy cost for a household is calculated based on: a. Residential electric costs assuming 500 kWh/month use b. Heating fuel cost for a community assuming regional consumption from CCHRC’s recent housing assessment. Consumption levels vary based on a number of factors, most importantly temperature and house size. c. Household income (Census: American Community Survey 3 year average) Burden of energy cost = (HH cost of electric + heat energy) / HH income This burden of energy cost is calculated for each community and then weighted by population to generate a regional burden of energy number. This burden of energy cost is used to calculate the range of funding that each region should receive, such that regions with high energy cost burden are eligible to receive more funding cumulatively across all years of the REF. The results indicate that Yukon-Koyukuk/Upper Tanana is considered “under-served”. 2. Cap all individual projects at $1.5 million (10% of Governor’s budget). 3. To achieve a better balance of funding across the state, regions that exceed the target funding band will be capped so their share of the overall fund cannot grow. This rule affects the Southeast region in this round. Therefore Southeast projects in the top funding tier are limited to recommended projects that are in communities with the highest burden of energy cost. Once the region’s funding equals 22.15% of recommended funding, the remaining projects will be identified as recommended projects, but in a group outside the top tier of $15M of Round 8 projects. Page 1 of 2 The following table identifies by energy region: REF funding to date, the burden of energy cost, and Round 8 funding before and after the REFAC-advised criteria are applied.
