11/9/19 Fairbanks Utility Wants To Buy LNG Facility But Is The Whole Deal Financially Feasible? We’ve Never Thought So.

Credit: http://www.thedailysheeple.com/the-west-is-on-the-wrong-path_082014 Commentary: With fuel oil prices low and the true cost of serving too few natural gas customers being high -- would enough oil-heated homes convert to gas to make the Interior Energy Project feasible? Gas rates to customers are subsidized, and artificially low. How can the repayment of loans to AIDEA be guaranteed? Meanwhile, the cash-strapped state could be investing the several hundred million going to Fairbanks subsidies for market-based income. That means the rest of the state at a time of budget shortfalls is subsidizing [...]

10-1-19 Canadian Energy Turmoil

Just how split are Canadians on resource development and climate action? Calgary Herald, A quick glance at the federal election campaign shows a deep chasm between the sides, with more name calling than a schoolyard squabble over issues such as national climate targets and developing oil and natural gas resources.

From a business perspective, organizations from across the country representing large urban centres are [...]

7-15-19 A Tale of Two Teachers

"It was the best of times; it was the worst of times... Alaska Budget Graph "...it was the age of wealth, it was the epoch of waste," we paraphrase with apologies to Charles Dickens. For over four decades Alaska's great Prudhoe Bay wealth elevated the sparsely populated, largest state in the U.S. to the biggest per capita spender. Its public officials knowingly created an unsustainable budget. They knew that North Slope production would decline but allowed their policies to create a state budget that was over 3/4 [...]
