Objectives• Create a consortium of rural utilities:
Alaska rural utilities Alaska Energy Authority (AEA) Alaska Village Electric Cooperative (AVEC)
• Survey of existing village power monitoring systems
• Data collection and management (standardization)
• Optimization through data analysis and energy profiling (Hybrid Arctic Remote Power SIMulator): load profiling energy efficiency analysis economic analysis environmental analysis

• Village power system data collection & analysis:
• AEA and AVEC: developing a standard system for downloading village power data on a regular schedule and in a convenient format.
• Metering Projects: powerhouse electrical data, weather stations, met towers, BTU meters from heat recovery systems, and electrical data from village users such as schools, washeterias, and community buildings.
• Kongiganak, Lime Village, Stevens Village, and Wales Village - UAF evaluated data with its hybrid power system analysis tool (HARPSIM)
• Kwigillingok and Kongiganak - access to online data (URL:
http://www.aidea.org/aea/aearemotemon.html)
• Remote monitoring switchgear installed in 16 villages: Atka Diesel Powerhouse and Hydro Facility, Arctic Village, Chuathbaluk, Crooked Creek, Golovin, Hughes, Kongiganak, Koyukuk, Kwigillingok, Pedro Bay, Manokotak, Nikolski, Sleetmute, Stevens Village, Stony River,
and Takotna
• 5 more villages by summer 2007: Buckland, Chefornak, Diomede, Larsen Bay Hydro Facility, and Ouzinkie Diesel Powerhouse and Hydro Facility

• Graduate student Ashish Agrawal defended his PhD dissertation entitled “Hybrid Electric Power Systems in Remote Villages: Economic and Environmental Analysis for Monitoring, Optimization and Control” on Monday, July 17, 2006 based on work related to this project.
• Presentation on hybrid village power systems at 2006 Alternative Energy Fair at the Chena Hot Springs Geothermal Energy Conference on August 20, 2006.
• A one-year extension with additional funds of $71k from DOE for salary and travel was granted on this project to complete the collection and analysis of data from newly installed monitoring systems.
• Planning a consortium meeting/workshop for AK rural utilities at AK Rural Energy conference in April 2007.
Project BudgetThe total budget for this project is $371.4K with $80.0K as a subcontract to AEA. About 78% or $284.5K of the budget has been spent or encumbered.
