I Golden Valley Eiectric Association, Ni FjNUses tl.e =v, -rStrtl%tion of a solar heating system to be used by the Denali Education Center (DEC). This proposed solar water heating system would be used to displace fossil fuel energy (specifically, electricity) that is currently used to heat water and space for these end -users. DEC is located just south of the 64th northern latitude, about eight miles south of the Denali National Park entrance at mile post 231.1 on the east side of the Parks Highway bridge that crosses over the Nenana River. It is a non- profit research, education and communication organization with cooperative interaction to Denali National Park and all its summer -time visitors. The DEC's campus serves people who visit and stay their during the summer tourist season. There are 13 cabins on the campus, a campus center and other outbuildings. Currently, the peak number who lodge and work at the Center during the summer is about 75 people, with an anticipated near -future growth up to 100 people. GVEA also plans to work ABS Alaskan and Jim Norman, principal and owner. l `.3 PROJE T BUDGET 0VIERVIEW I� Drrofty disccus the -arnoanf cf fjF?dR-needad, the amht ip,�fed sources of fands,.and tl�e nature -and source l oWAhr&; corrtrrbutiunq to the profact incJude a profact cost surnmary than includes an estimated total cast :trr4ggh corkstructton. All anticipated funds, except GVEA time on project management and additional labor and services provided by Denali Education Center, will to come from Renewable Energy Fund.

Solar water heating systems use the sun's energy to provide hot water and space heating in this project. The significant public benefit of this project is the following: Non-profit education foundation offsets conservatively approximately $9,000 in operating costs per year. (See attachm n # 1) Alaska's hospitality tourism industry is competitive and reducing energy is good for business. Alaska's hospitality tourism industry, contrary to most of the state, is energy intensive in the summer, not the winter. This project will also increase the demand for solar AEA 09-004 Grant Application Page 3 of 13 9/3/2008 /I&D ALASHKA Renewable Energy Fund Grant Application water heating in the summer -season hospitality tourism industry and result in increased employment and training opportunities to develop the capacity for installing such systems. This system is custom-made for the hospitality industry but has broad economical appeal and application for all Alaskans. Solar water heating is environmentally clean and does not contribute to greenhouse gases or other pollutants. In this particular case, the reduction of electricity demand will not only reduce operating costs and improve DEC's financial balance sheet and affordability, it will also drop the demand, or load, on the organization's facilities and actually lower the rate on the DEC account, dropping an expensive demand charge on its bill. This is an excellent example of load management and a direct financial benefit for other businesses. The public is keenly aware of global warming and the environment. Organizations that endorse sustainability demonstrate they are taking proactive steps towards environmental preservation and are serious about renewable energy and steps toward energy independence. in the hospitality industry, customers are more likely to spend their money with a businesses that are eco-friendly, knowing that they share the same values when it comes to the environment. With GVEA, the cooperative's membership that sees practical steps toward diversifying energy resources, addressing environmental concerns and reducing fossil fuel dependency will view this project as their public benefit. 1 2.5 PHOJECT COST AND BENEFIT SUMARY - — hw—Vude a -summary of your project's total costs and benefits belo w- i 2.5.1 Total Project Cost #nclu€fin estimate§-thfoti h construotianr 2.6.2 Grant Funds Regties£ed in this appfloattbn.

An alternative might be solar electric (PV), though its efficiency would be much lower in terms of both absolute efficiency and the cost per watt. Wood fired or coal fired (from Healy) could be used but emission, transportation, supply, on- going operation and maintenance issues must be considered. Somebody must physically fire that boiler very day. Solar thermal operates with minimal amount of human intervention and no fuel supply issues.

The potential impact on the hospitality tourism industry is to reduce summer electricity peak load. In addition, water heating is something everyone uses year round and is therefore a secondary target market to demonstrate the practical and economical application of solar water heating systems. The bottom line is that this project will have a reduced load on GVEA's generation and demonstrate a lower energy use and cost on its member. As a cooperative electric utility, it is not simply a purpose of the electric company to sell electricity; it is a responsibility of the cooperative electric utility to serve its membership in the best and better use of electricity. This project is an example of the responsibility that a cooperative member -owned electric utility has to its membership.

The system would consist of a 2,000-foot insulated hot water loop between the laundry building on the south side of the site, to the Riverside complex on the north side of the site and to the Sheldon Center to the west. Primary heat generation would come from solar flat -plate collectors roof mounted at these three locations. Additional heat will be provided by six (6) individual 40-square foot collectors mounted on 30-foot towers positioned strategically next to cabins along the loop. The towers will prevent minimal disturbance to the habitat. The Heliodyne flat panel thermal collector, Gobi 410, will be used as the water -heating component of the system. A total of 1,274 square feet of collections area is calculated. A description of the Heliodyne flat panel thermal collector is attached. (See attachments # 6a. 6b & 6c) The anticipated annual generation is expected to offset approximately between 32,000 & 36,000 kilowatt-hours of energy or between 109 and 124 million BTUs annually.

Alaska's hospitality industry, contrary to most of the state, is energy intensive in the summer, not the winter. Summer is when this industry's' energy needs are at a peak, contrary to the rest of the state. Because solar water heating is environmentally clean and does not contribute to greenhouse gases or other pollutants, this visible water heating system will also increase the awareness of tourists and other travelers about the importance that Alaska places on renewable energy. In addition, besides increasing the demand for solar water heating in the summer -season hospitality industry and this project will help increase employment and training opportunities to develop the capacity for installing such systems within the renewable energy field here in Alaska. This system is custom-made for the hospitality industry but has broad economical appeal and application for all Alaskans. In this particular case, the reduction of electricity demand will not only reduce operating costs and improve DEC's financial balance sheet and affordability; it will also drop the demand, or load, on the organization's facilities and actually lower the rate on the DEC account, dropping an expensive demand charge on its bill. This is an excellent example of load management and a direct financial benefit for other businesses. The public is keenly aware of global warming and the environment.

The biggest additional expense, the expenses that drives this project cost higher than normal solar water heating systems that are single source and replace traditional single source systems, is the heating loop that will serve to circulate the solar -heated water. DEC is a non-profit organization that is very excited to commit what resources it can to the project, specifically, housing for construction workers and volunteer labor when necessary. We also expect to get support for statewide foundations, such as the Rasmuson Foundation, to expand the system. This project will be used as a model demonstration for the appropriate use of solar water heating systems through out Alaska and particularly with the hospitality tourism industry.

These pioneers applied to the Rural Electrification Administration, which granted a loan to form a not -for -profit rural electric cooperative. Last year, GVEA celebrated 60 years of service to nearly 90,000 Interior residents in the Fairbanks, Delta Junction, Nenana, Healy and Cantwell areas to over 42,000 service locations. The 9.500Kw Fairbanks Exploration Co. (F.E.) power plant was built in 1927 to serve the gold dredges operating in the Tanana Valley. GVEA purchased power from the F.E. Company until 1952, when they purchased the plant. It was retired in March 1972. • Bradley Lake Hydroelectric Project • Energy$ense conservation programs • Small scale renewable power *Wind *Green power partnerships GVEA operates and maintains 2,995 miles of transmission and distribution lines and 35 substations. Our system is interconnected with Fort Wainwright, Eielson AFB, Fort Greely, the University of Alaska -Fairbanks and all electric utilities in the Alaska Railbelt which extends from Homer, Alaska to Fairbanks. Peak system demand increased during the past year, from 194.7 MW in 2005 to 207.1 MW in 2006. Golden Valley maintains a diverse fuel mix to help stabilize costs. The new North Pole Expansion Plant adds Naphtha, an extremely clean burning fuel, to our mix. If natural gas comes to the Interior, the new plant will have the ability to burn gas. In 2005, GVEA's Board of Directors adopted a green power pledge. The pledge calls for 10 percent of GVEA's peak load to come from renewable energy sources by the end of 2007. With an anticipated peak load of 230 MW in 2007, Golden Valley plans to meet these goals through a variety of programs and initiatives including: GVEA energized the Northern Intertie in October 2003. This 97-mile, 230-kilovolt line is one of GVEA's initiatives to improve system reliability. GVEA is the northern control point for the Fairbanks/Anchorage Intertie, which serves most Railbelt communities. Both interties allow GVEA to augment our 296 MW generation capacity with an additional 70 MW from the Anchorage area. Golden Valley's Battery Energy Storage System project came online in November 2003. The BESS can provide 27 megawatts for 15 minutes or up to 40 MW for less time if necessary. Being able to produce 40 MW makes the BESS the most powerful battery energy storage system in the world in terms of MW output. In 2006, the BESS responded to 82 events which prevented 311,000 member outages. GVEA's generating capability of 296 MW is supplied by six generating facilities. The Healy Power Plant provides 28 MW, is coal-fired and is located at the back door of the Usibelli Coal Mine. Our 120 MW North Pale Power Plant is oil -fired and built next to Flint Hills refinery. The oil -fired Zehnder Power Plant in Fairbanks can provide 41 MW, The Delta Power Plant, formerly the Chena 6 Power Plant on First Avenue in Fairbanks, can produce 27 MW. In 1991, GVEA added Bradley Lake's hydroelectric power to its sources of energy. Bradley Lake is located near Homer, and GVEA's 17 percent share of the energy (20 MW) is transmitted via the Intertie. Mealy power plant Construction of the North Pole Expansion Plant was completed in 2006. Fired up for the first time in November, it is now operating commercially. The plant uses combined -cycle technology to add 60 MW of generation at the existing North Pole Power Plant site. The project entails a 47- MW combustion turbine with a steam turbine that allows us to generate an additional 13 MW.

The energy usage is derived from the electric consumption history as reported by GVEA for account numbers 170667-0 and 107912-8 for 2007 for the months June through October. 170667-0 107912 Total Month Avg kWh Avg kWh Avg kWh June 199 122 321 July 328 117 445 August 326 79 405 September 351 127 478 October 243 140 383 Avg 289 117 406 Each of the cabins uses electric power for both water and space heating. As this is likely to be responsible for the bulk of the electric bill, I will assume 90% of the total is related to these two loads for an average heating load. of 406 * 0.9 = 368 kWh/day. Propane usage for the Riverside Office in 2008 was 127 gallons, of which 95% was used for hot water heating. The propane usage for the Riverside Hall was 647 gallons, with 50% being devoted to hot water. This implies a total propane consumption of 445 gallons. This is the energy equivalent of 9030 kWh (at 75% thermal efficiency). If this usage is spread over 5 months, it implies an additional 60 kWh/day of energy consumption. Working with these assumptions, the DEC requires 368 + 60 = 428 kWh/day of energy for water and space heating. The specified operational period for the DEC is between May 10t` and September 17th. For this period, Heliodyne flat panel thermal collectors can be expected to gather an average of 169 Wh/f1^2/day. If we size an array to offset 50% of the heating load, it will require 428,000 (Wh) / 169 (Wh/fi^2/day) = 1266 square feet of collector area. Each Gobi-410 collector has 37.48 f1^2 of effective collector area, so this will require 34 Gobi 410 panels for a total 1274 square feet. An array of this size can be expected to offset approximately 32,000 kWh of energy consumption annually.

The company was the first to introduce "closed loop" (indirect) solar water heating systems to the U.S., a now commonly used method to heat water via the sun. Heliodyne's products have been installed in solar water heating systems in the United States more than any other American company. Heliodyne has acquired a solid reputation for engineering and manufacturing solar equipment that is both durable and affordable. With offices and manufacturing facilities in Richmond, California, the company manufactures and assembles a variety of solar water heating products, including the Gobi line of solar flat plate collectors, and the Helio-Pak heat -transfer appliances. The Gobi collector is perhaps the most well known American collector on the market today, having been installed in thousands of homes and commercial installations throughout the U.S. and many other parts of the world. It's also one of the highest -rated collectors in terms of performance and reliability. The Helio-Pak, another flagship product of Heliodyne, is an all -in -one heat -transfer appliance designed to eliminate the issues with piecing together the heat -transfer components. Because everything in the Helio-Pak is pre -plumbed and assembled, installers find its "plug & play" design easy to use, and a time saver. To simplify installations even further, the company offers pre -packaged kits complete with all the necessary components to make installing a solar water heating system a hassle -free experience. Having pre-engineered systems to offer installers, takes out a lot of the guesswork involved with "sizing" a system for their client. It also eliminates all the potential hidden extra costs a solar hot water customer might encounter when trying to purchase a system. Where relevant, all the company's products and packaged systems are SRCC and IAPMO certified, ensuring the products are built to the highest standards. Heliodyne's solar water heating systems are suitable for residential, commercial and industrial applications. Heliodyne is the North American branch of SolarCAP, the active parent company of the VKR Group's solar thermal energy business, a holding based in Europe. SolarCAP's vision is to become the leading provider of sustainable energy solutions focusing on solar thermal energy — while at the same time making solar thermal energy the most environmentally sound and cost-effective source of energy. SolarCAP is owned by VKR Holding, which is one of Denmark's largest and most respected industrial investors, as well as owner and developer of companies that bring daylight, fresh air and a better environment into people's everyday lives.

COOL CLIMATE (CLOSED LOOP) HOW IT WORKS When there is sufficient heat to be drawn from the collectors, the controller automatically activates the pumps. Heated solar fluid is then circulated from the collectors, through the heat exchanger, where its heat is transferred to water in the storage tank. The solar liquid is then pumped back to the collectors to once again be reheated. This circulation loop will i continue as long as there is heat to be drawn from the collectors. During i times when there is little or no sun, a backup heating system will be i activated to provide adequate hot water.

The area has a definite continental climate. The sun is above the horizon from 18 to 21 hours each day during the months of June and July. During this period daily average maximumtemperatures reach the lower 70s. Temperatures of 80' or higher occur on about 10 days each summer with extreme highs of 90' or more occurring in the months of May and August. During the period from November to March, when the sunshine period ranges from 10 to less than 4 hours a day, the lowest temperature readings fall below zero regularly. Extremely cold temperatures of -40' and colder occur on the average only 14 days each winter with extremes of near or below -60' having occurred in the three midwinter months. Snowfalls of four inches or more in a day occur only three times during the average winter, andblizzard conditions are almostnever experienced. Severe weather during the summer months is rare. The snow cover during the winter months is a major contributing factor to the development of extreme cold, since the white surface prevents the absorption of heat from a limited amount of sunshine. December and January maximum temperatures are usually below zero. The surrounding upland areas tend to aid the settling of cold air into The Tanana Valley lowlands. Ice fog conditions frequently occur with the extreme low temperatures and they tend to EEM-01 355 persist for periods of a few days to one or two weeks. On the average, low cloudiness is minimal, year-round, and particularly minimal during February throughApril. Wind speeds are particularly light during the winter months. Precipitation normally follows a regular pattern. Total annual precipitation is about 12 inches, a little less than is received at Denver and a little more than is received at San Diego. Growing season precipitation, which begins with the occurrence of light rain showers in May, builds up through the summer months to a maximum in August. There is a noticeable decline in precipitationfrom September through November. April, which averages the lightest monthly precipitation during the year, realizes the greatest percentage of possible sunshine. The average last date of freezing temperatures in the spring is May 21, and the average first occurrence of freezing temperatures in the fall is August 30, resulting in a growing season averaging 100 days. Summers are warm enough so that vegetables such as broccoli, peas, beans, squash, cauliflower, and other leafy vegetables grow luxuriantly. Select varieties of tomatoes, corn, cucumbers, and melons reach maturity during the three-month growing season. There is a better chance of maturing grain crops in the Tanana Valley than in other agricultural areas of Alaska. nmo diN m Ozca u �tLrnm L-10 t�z� Qco I F N O a0 n N � O N z �? z cV 00 m O N NLN rl d! dt d+ 00 0 "O Z a` �LOcco `o N bA 0o a1 z LO :9 m 00 00 LfS 00 a1 F LO l� dl cnoot� c.o ct+ZN � 00 �' It LO cm u m�*m Cf)Cc �z 04 dam+ o m w iq Ci Ki o o m Z O a, C'4 s� Ln m cn o o z00 1 � I-D L 0 i� Z a� I N 0 0 0 0, a, v Q Q 4., a`) v a) Cd M I 'o N M M M -- m a0 M LV cm cm N N H �!
