- KEY POINT #1:MICHIGAN HAS A HUGE ENERGY PROBLEM • Michigan uses a lot of energy – Total cost $22 billion per year in 2000 By 2008, had increased to $37 billion!!! – 9 th highest cost burden in the nation • Michigan is almost totally dependent on fuels imported from other states and countries We import: – 100% of the coal and uranium we use – 99% of oil & petroleum products – 70% of the natural gas COST OF MICHIGAN‟S ENERGY IMPORTS • Before the new „high energy cost‟ era (circa 2000), roughly $12 billion per year was leaving Michigan to pay for fuel imports • At 2008 market prices, this dollar outflow was over $24 billion per year- THIS IS A HUGE ECONOMIC DRAIN ON OUR STATE ECONOMY! In 2007 Total Statewide Energy Bill estimated at $37 billion: Petroleum accounts for more than half of total expenditures (56%), natural gas accounted for 18 percent, electricity 25 percent and 1 percent was spent on industrial coal, biomass and others. About 30 cents of every dollar Michigan spends on energy is retained within the State’s economy, which means about 70 cents of every dollar goes to other states and nations to pay for the petroleum, natural gas, coal and nuclear fuel the State imports.
- FOR OUR OWN STATE POLICIES…MICHIGAN NEEDS TO EMPHASIZE: • Energy Efficiency • Michigan-based Renewable Energy As a matter of state policy, we should be trying to maximize the amount of energy efficiency resources we can acquire, … and minimize the amount of additional fuel imports we need
- 12KEY POINT #3 It is much cheaper to save energy than it is to produce it. [We can save electricity for about one-third the cost of producing it through a new power plant … . With no carbon (CO2) emissions] Michigan Green Jobs Report found 23 % of jobs directly involved in generating or supporting a firm’s green related products or services were in improving energy efficiency. Local jobs and tend to pay well.
- In the early 1990’s, Michigan was among the national leaders in utility efficiency programs. Our top utilities were spending 1 to 2% of revenues on energy efficiency Independent evaluations documented that the energy efficiency programs were very cost-effective (1.5 to 2.6 cents per kWh saved)…less than half the cost of new electric supply. The programs were very popular with the public Michigan’s utility energy efficiency programs were terminated in 1996, in the rush to utility deregulation [Many other states maintained their energy efficiency programs, and have realized hundreds of millions of dollars in utility cost savings.] PA 295 Corrected in 2008 when PA 295 was signed into law, requiring utility energy efficiency programs and setting annual energy savings requirements for electric and natural gas utilities. Cost Recovery - re-established utility EE programs in Michigan and authorized cost-recovery through a surcharge. [ Problem : charge is capped at 2% of revenues. Will need somewhat more in order to reach high savings levels.] Shareholder Incentives – PA 295 did create incentive mechanism for utilities that exceed savings goals. Decoupling – PA 295 allowed for gas utilities, did not address for electrics. [Status: MPSC has since approved decoupling for DTE and Consumers electric. Will be crucial in convincing utilities to achieve high EE savings levels.]
- Complimented by the LIEEF fund, public service commission.
- Appliance Rebate Program 9.6 million Complement and go beyond existing utility EO programs. Provide rebates for Energy Star appliances and some that exceed ENERGY STAR standards. Michigan Residential rebates Compliment to utility E. O. programs Launched February 10, 2010, updated August 1, 2010; is not retroactive.
- Target homes and commercial buildings for energy efficiency retrofits in neighborhoods across the state Awarded $30 million by DOE per EECBG program Proposal submitted by Michigan Department of Energy, Labor & Economic Growth and Michigan SAVES on behalf of a collaborative group including the cities of Detroit and Grand Rapids and Southeast Michigan Regional Energy Office Pilot a well informed model program that will drive economies of scale and large-scale uptake of significant energy efficiency improvements across entire neighborhoods/communities Strengthen our existing MI Saves financing program to ensure a strong private sector market ready to invest in energy efficiency loans in Michigan and a deep pool of energy efficiency incentives and credit enhancements in perpetuity Create a critical mass of growing awareness about the benefits of energy efficiency and the means to achieve it in residential, commercial, industrial and public buildings Kick start an energy efficiency qualified contractor infrastructure that is strong and growing Develop an informed knowledge base about what drives uptake of energy efficiency improvements across numerous customer segments Develop and amplify nascent policy and voluntary programs in order to enhance their efficacy in driving consumer awareness and uptake
