By Jim Kelly Burning Wood, Not Oil Biomass Plant to Come Online in 2014 One of the most important projects for Kaua‘i’s energy future is a hightechnology power plant that will use wood chips and other biomass instead of oil to produce 6.7 megawatts of electricity. Conceptual outline of the Green Energy plant, which will be hidden behind a grove of trees. Source: Green Energy Team 4 KIUC CURRENTS Green Energy Team and Kaua‘i Island Utility Cooperative announced in October that Green Energy had received a loan guarantee commitment letter from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Utilities Service (RUS) that will enable it to begin construction of the facility. The loan guarantee as well as the commitment of the construction financing by Deutsche Bank means construction can begin in early 2013, with the plant operational in 2014. Construction work will create about 200 jobs and significant work for subcontractors and local service providers here on Kaua‘i, which will help the local economy. Once operational, the plant will employ 39 permanent workers and will continue to rely on goods and services from local Kaua‘i businesses. The principals of Green Energy had been working on the project for more than six years, building support from the community and public officials, while navigating to meet a host of regulatory and financial requirements. With a power purchase agreement signed by KIUC in January 2011, Green Energy and its partner, Standardkessel Baumgarte Contracting GmbH of Germany, secured the financing, assisted by the RUS. Standardkessel is an international leader in highefficiency boiler technology with more than 1,000 plants designed around the world. Standardkessel is an equity partner in the project. The plant is a stateoftheart facility that is fueled by wood chips from trees sustainably grown and harvested on Kaua‘i. The plant will provide more than 11 percent of Kaua‘i’s energy needs, contributing significantly to KIUC’s efforts to generate 50 percent of its power from renewable resources by 2023. The plant will be built near Knudsen Gap and will provide enough electricity to power 8,500 households, annually replacing about 3.7 million gallons of imported oil. Power will be sold to KIUC under a contract approved by the Hawai‘i Public Utilities Commission in October 2011. “Many in our community have worked so hard since 2006 to bring these jobs and clean, sustainable energy production by Kauaians, on Kaua‘i for Kauaians,” said Eric Knutzen, co founder of Green Energy. “Much appreciation goes to the KIUC board members for their patience, for many years of support of the project which benefits so many.” The plant is especially important to Kaua‘i’s renewable energy efforts because it is “firm power” and is “on” 24 hours a day, unlike solar, which is intermittent and available only during the day. Green Energy Biomass Gasifiers Older Diesel Engine Generators 35.0 30.0 25.0 20.0 15.0 10.0 5.0 0.0 NOx SO2 CO Cleaner Air, As per KIUC’s Air Consultancy -Sierra Research Pounds of emissions per MWh generated 40.0 PM10 Pollutant Here is a Q and A with Green Energy cofounder Eric Knutzen about how the biomass plant will work. Talk about the financing and benefits of this project. The capital expenditures during the past six years have been borne by Green Energy, covering all the costs of the project. In the past year or so, Standardkessel has committed engineering and project leadership resources. Now fully funded, work on building the plant has begun. Secondly, and equally important, pricing of energy from the plant is below the current costs for generating power by burning fossil fuels and will not be subject to the volatility of oil prices during the 20year term of the agreement to sell power to KIUC. Using wood chips instead of oil will help stabilize customers’ bills. How will this plant affect our air quality? The impact will be significantly positive. We have proactively conducted both a statelevel environmental assessment (EA) as well as an Environmental Protection Agencylevel environmental review (ER), with findings of no significant impact in both cases. The project employs the bestavailable control technology and even uses electrostatic precipitators to further filter the air. As the Green Energy plant is brought into production, the Port Allen diesel generators can be “dialed down,” so the air is cleaner. The Green Energy emissions as registered with the state Department of Health in the EPA air permit represent: • NOx or nitrous oxides about 80 percent less than the current KIUC diesel production in Port Allen • SOx or sulfur oxides about 65 percent less than the existing diesel production • Carbon emissions are less, and actually nearly carbon neutral or “zero,” since the trees during growth absorb just as much as emitted during production • Particulate emissions are lower versus diesel production What fuel is to be used? Wood chips, and as part of our objective to concurrently foster the use of green waste, woody green waste will be used for excess energy production. What crops will be planted to provide the fuel? Our fuel supply initially will begin with clearing invasive Albizia, and then planting DLNR forestry approved species in a shortrotation plantation model, with mainly eucalyptus hybrids. Trees will grow an average of 4½ years. We generally cut off the trees at the base and don’t replant, as the stumps coppice and create the next harvest. Is this project carbon neutral? It is nearly carbon neutral, as the trees absorb just as much carbon as they emit while burning. The only carbon footprint would be created by the use of diesel in equipment and hauling, which is limited by our use of plantations close to the plant. We would like to move to “green diesel” when economically viable. You could say the Green Energy process is carbon neutral, as many experts say, but there is room for more improvement! DECEMBER 2012 5 By Jim Kelly Three Big Solar Projects Set to Power Kaua‘i by 2014 PV, batteries to provide 50 percent of daytime electrical demand On a clear afternoon three years from now, energy generated by the sun will be providing at least half of the power used on Kauaʻi. Traffic lights, water heaters, air conditioners, irrigation pumps, desktop computers, washing machines, cash registers and industrial conveyors across Kauaʻi will be powered not just by oilfired generators, but also by the sun. The first of three utilityscale photovoltaic (PV) projects on Kauaʻi will begin supplying power to the grid in December. Alexander & Baldwin’s solar array at Port Allen will provide 6 megawatts of power to KIUC at a cost well below the price of using oil. The solar array is adjacent to KIUC’s Port Allen generating station. As part of the project, KIUC has installed two, 1.5MW battery energy storage systems to help provide stability on the grid. As the first largescale solar project to come online on Kauaʻi, the Port Allen array will provide valuable handson experience to KIUC engineers Jon Yoshimura of SolarCity, Brad Rockwell of KIUC and Michael Tresler of Grove Farm at the site of the proposed KIUC solar project near Koloa. and operators who are charged with keeping the system running at peak efficiency, with the load balanced between solar and traditional generation. Engineers will closely observe how the system responds when clouds diminish the output of the solar panels. It takes only a few seconds for the output of a panel to go from 90 percent of capacity to less than 10 percent, then to bounce back up to 70 percent. The battery system reacts within milliseconds, kicking in reserve power to “smooth” the load and then backing off when the sky clears. No other utility in the United States will have as much solar on its system, so there is no playbook for KIUC’s engineers to follow. “It’s definitely a learning process, but we’re confident,” said John Cox, KIUC’s senior engineer. He points out KIUC engineers have been familiar with the challenges of “variable generation” for years as more PV has come online. PV now accounts for 5 percent of the power produced during the day. The observations of how the new Port Allen system and its batteries work will be even more important as two larger solar arrays are built during the next two years. In October, KIUC announced it will build a $40 million solar facility that will generate 12 MW of power, about 6 percent of Kauaʻi’s daily energy needs. The PV project will be built on 67 acres KIUC is leasing from Līhu`ebased Grove Farm Co. Inc. near Koloa. Construction is expected to begin early next year, with completion set for 2014. When completed, these projects will generate 30 MW during the day, enough power to meet about 50 percent of Kauaʻi’s daytime electrical demand of about 65 MW. Using the sun to create electricity instead of oil means KIUC won’t have to import about 1.7 million gallons of diesel and naptha annually. That will go a long way toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions and stabilizing utility bills. Assuming county and state regulatory approvals are received, construction is expected to begin by July 2013, with the project operational by the end of 2014. The project will be built just east of Koloa on Mahaulepu Road, between the Koloa Bypass Road and the old Koloa Mill. The project is adjacent to KIUC’s Koloa Substation, which will greatly reduce interconnection costs. The project is expected to create about 125 construction jobs. A 1.5MW battery storage system is already in use at the substation and a second battery storage unit will be added. The Koloa project, to be built by SolarCity, will be developed by a subsidiary of KIUC that will enable it to qualify for state and federal tax credits. Because it is a memberowned cooperative, not an investorowned utility, KIUC can finance the project through the National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corp., which is also a cooperative. A second large solar project was announced by KIUC earlier this year at Anahola. KIUC, in partnership with the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands and the Homestead Community Development Corp., is developing a 12MW solar farm, along with a new substation and service center. Construction on the $50 million project, to be built by REC Solar, is expected to begin in early 2013. Nearly 150 construction jobs will be created. “Renewable energy is a driver of economic development on Kauaʻi and KIUC is proud to be at the forefront,” said David Bissell, president and CEO of KIUC. “Projects under development, either KIUCowned or through power purchase agreements, represent more than $200 million of capital investment over the next several years.” KIUC has committed to using renewable resources to generate 50 percent of its energy by 2023. Achieving that goal will not only lower and stabilize customers’ utility bills, but will create local jobs, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to Hawaiʻi’s cleanenergy efforts.

Modified McBryde Hydro Deal Results in KIUC Savings Earlier this year, the directors of Kaua‘i Island Utility Cooperative approved a modified 20year power purchase agreement with Alexander & Baldwin, whose McBryde Resources Inc. subsidiary operates two hydroelectric plants at Kalaheo and Wainiha. The agreement modifies a contract last updated in 1998. The amended contract, approved by the Public Utilities Commission in September, is significant because it sets a price for the power that is not tied to the price of oil, resulting in immediate savings. Under the old contract, KIUC paid McBryde for power using a formula based on socalled “avoided cost,” which calculates the amount KIUC would have had to pay to generate the same amount of power with its oilfired generators. By switching to the new price structure, KIUC could save about $49 million over the life of the contract, based on experts’ projections of future oil prices. The two McBryde plants generate nearly 5 megawatts and are the largest existing source of renewable power on Kaua‘i. The agreement continues a 107yearold relationship that began when Kauai Electric was founded as a subsidiary of McBryde Sugar Co. KIUC Chairman Teofilo “Phil” Tacbian said the agreement affirms the commitment by both KIUC and Alexander & Baldwin to continue working together to provide clean, renewable energy to Kaua‘i. DECEMBER 2011 7 By Shelley Paik Nearly Gone Lihue Mill Helped Power Kaua‘i for Nearly a Century Shawn deMille 8 KIUC CURRENTS What once was a thriving industrial business and major contributor to Kaua‘i’s power system is nearly gone, its deteriorating shell demolished for scrap during the past several months. The 150yearold Lihue Mill was decommissioned more than a decade ago. All that remains are two smoke stacks and the rusting façades of a few buildings awaiting demolition. But to Shawn deMille, the Lihue Mill still holds memories. It was where he first worked when he came to Kaua‘i in 1975. The Kaua‘i Island Utility Cooperative (KIUC) staff engineer and onetime Lihue Plantation employee worked at a civil engineering company on O‘ahu when he applied for a project engineer/draftsman position at Amfac, which owned the Lihue Plantation. He is one of a handful of KIUC employees who once worked at Lihue Plantation. “The power company used to hire a lot of plantation people because it was a good fit,” said deMille. “They understood power generation and also brought along other applicable skill sets with them.” His first projects at the mill included installing new equipment, redesigning things that didn’t work well and overseeing capital projects. After nearly 10 years on Kaua‘i, deMille was promoted and worked for Amfac’s Pioneer Mill in Lahaina until he returned to Kaua‘i in 1991 to work for Kauai Electric. The old sugar boilers at the Lihue Mill did not meet federal cleanair standards and there was no money for upgrades. “Money for improvements was scarce,” deMille said. “We had to improvise and do more with less. This provided an environment for challenges.” The old boilers were replaced in 1980 with a new $35 million power plant. An agreement was made between Foster Wheeler, the power plant manufacturer, and Lihue Plantation and Kauai Electric. Foster Wheeler would pay for the new $35 million plant, Lihue Plantation would get free steam and electricity, the utility would buy the excess power and the kilowatthour sales would go to Foster Wheeler. “This was truly a winwinwin business agreement,” deMille said. The new plant at the Lihue Mill was completed in 1980 and burned multifuels, normally straight bagasse—a waste product of sugar cane—or a combination of No. 2 fuel oil (diesel) or No. 6 fuel oil (bunker C oil). The new plant could produce 20 megawatts, enough to operate the mill with 12 to 14 megawatts left to send to Kauai Electric. That accounted for about a quarter of the island’s peak power demand at the time. Combined with hydroelectricity, more than 30 percent of Kaua‘i’s power came from renewable resources in the 1980s. “Sugar plantations had to be selfsufficient because of Hawai‘i’s remote location,” deMille said. “The Lihue Mill once was one of the most innovative mills in the sugar industry. Because of the demanding hours, employees and their families got to know each other well. Many employees had to eat on the fly and would bring their kau kau tins to share.” He said there were anywhere between 500 and 1,000 employees at different times, and a lot of camaraderie. “It was a good lifestyle and provided plenty of opportunities for people who wanted to work,” deMille said. “On the flip side, it was rough because you had to sacrifice your family life and work the long demanding hours to get ahead.” When Lihue Plantation closed the plant in 2000, Kauai Electric paid Lihue Plantation’s employees and all operating costs to keep the power plant running until the new Kapaia Power Station was brought online in 2002. In 2008, the Lihue Mill power plant was sold for $1.5 million, dismantled, and sent to the province of Negros Occidental in the Philippines, where it took two years to reassemble. From the Board of Directors Much Accomplished in 2012, Even More Work Ahead in 2013 For nearly a decade, the board of directors of Kauaʻi Island Utility Cooperative has made the pursuit of renewable energy a priority. When oil prices set records in 2008, that mission became even more urgent. Four years ago, the directors set the ambitious target of generating 50 percent of Kauaʻi’s energy needs by renewable resources on our own island by 2023. Over the years, nearly a dozen renewable energy projects on Kauaʻi have been discussed. But the recession made it nearly impossible for some developers to obtain financing, and the lengthy permitting process discouraged others. Projects disappeared, and oil prices continued to rise. Now, after years of talk, there is action. During the next three years, nearly 37 megawatts of power generated by renewable resources will come on line on Kauaʻi. That’s in addition to 14 MW already in production from hydroelectric generation and customers’ photovoltaic systems. By 2015, half of Kauaʻi’s daytime energy needs will be met by photovoltaics—the highest percentage of solar on an electrical grid of any utility in the United States. And you have been doing your part to conserve. Since 2007, the average residential customer’s power consumption has fallen 10 percent, thanks to energyefficient appliances, solar water heaters, compact fluorescent bulbs and the use of inhome usage displays. Many of these energysaving devices were provided free or at reduced cost by KIUC, including 104,000 CFLs. Those bulbs alone save our members nearly $3 million a year. In addition to using power generated by the sun and the burning of biomass, we are still working on hydroelectricity. We are talking to residents, water users and state agencies for their ideas on which projects are the most efficient and provide the biggest benefit to Kauaʻi. In addition to providing power, some of these projects have the potential to irrigate farmland and put longabandoned ditches and reservoirs back into use. Even if only half of the sites we’re considering for hydropower are built, they represent at least another 15 MW of firm, clean power. We will be talking to you about our ideas for this in 2013. All of this is good news for Kauaʻi, but we know that unless it translates into savings on your bill, it’s hard to get excited. But these steps, along with your efforts at managing your own power use, will ensure your electric bills won’t keep spiraling upward and that Kauaʻi can be secure and independent, generating most of its power using local resources, not foreign oil. We’re proud of the accomplishments we’ve made in the 10 years since we became a cooperative, especially in our progress on renewable energy. Thank you for your questions, your suggestions and your support. On behalf of all of us at KIUC, we wish you and your ‘ohana a safe and happy holiday season. Carol Bain Karen Baldwin Patrick Gegen David Iha Allan Smith Teofilo “ Phil ” Tacbian Jan TenBruggencate Calvin Murashige Peter Yukimura DECEMBER 2012 9 A Message from the Chairman Nov. 1, 2012, marked the 10th anniversary of the sale of Kauai Electric to Kauaʻi Island Utility Cooperative. A lot has happened in those 10 years, including a very notable event earlier this year when KIUC was named Solar Utility of the Year by Solar Power Generation USA. This honor recognizes our efforts in pursuing solar projects in partnership with private and community organizations. We are continuing our efforts to develop more solar projects, as well as biomass and hydroelectric power. We are focused on our goal of generating 50 percent of our power from these renewable sources by 2023. Now that the election is over, our Government Relations and Legislative Affairs Committee headed by Vice Chairman Jan TenBruggencate and Directors David Iha and Pat Gegen is gearing up for the upcoming legislative and congressional sessions. In recent weeks, we have had the opportunity to meet with U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye here on Kauaʻi. We also met with U.S. Rep.elect Tulsi Gabbard and gave her an update on KIUC’s progress on renewable energy and our involvement with federal programs. State Sen. Mike Gabbard, who chairs the Energy and Environment Committee, was also briefed on our legislative concerns at the state level. On Sept. 19, we met with Gov. Neil Abercrombie and had the opportunity to brief him on our activities and our plans, particularly in the areas of solar and hydroelectricity. It was a positive meeting and the governor expressed his support for our initiatives. His visit was followed by a meeting with the Public Utilities Commission on Sept. 27, headed by Chairwoman Mina Morita. She was joined by Commissioners Lorraine Akiba and Michael Champley and Consumer Advocate Jeffrey Ono. Like the governor, they commended our aggressive efforts in pursuing clean energy for Kauaʻi. As we approach the end of the year, on behalf of the board of directors, I want to wish each and every one of you, our members, a happy and safe holiday season. Teofilo “Phil” Tacbian, Chairman Board of Directors Board Actions Below is a summary of some of the actions taken by the KIUC board in August, September and October 2012.

DECEMBER 2012 13 By Anne Barnes Meet KIUC’s CFL Charlie Creating Enthusiasm for Science I’m a geek, so I view science as a hugely creative and deeply human endeavor. And because younger kids are characteristically inquisitive, handson projects and science labs in the elementary classroom have become an important foundation for all children to help encourage curiosity and inquiry. With lessons approved to meet appropriate state educational standards in addition to the National Science Education Standards, Touchstone Energy’s Kids “Super Energy Saver” program is designed to do just that. Through the use of engaging and fun activities, students follow CFL Charlie on a tour of basic energy sources and energy efficiency. At the end of the unit, students grades K5 will become “Super Energy Savers” by understanding how to conserve energy at home and at school. Charlie’s Quick Tips 1. Your refrigerator uses a lot of energy, so to save energy when getting food from the refrigerator, decide what you want before opening the door. 2. To save energy, turn the lights off when you leave the room. 3. To save energy and water, take short showers, turn off the faucet while you brush your teeth and never leave the faucet on if you are not using the water. 4. To save energy when using the washing machine, wash a full load of clothes each time. 5. To save energy when using your oven, try not to open the door and peek in while it is in use. 6. Since most of the energy used in your home is for water heating, your family can reduce the electric bill by about 40 percent if you install a solar water heater. 14 KIUC CURRENTS Charlie’s program is designed to teach four aspects of energy: Basic energy. Students learn how electricity works, including how energy is generated and distributed. Electrical safety. Students are given tips they should follow to stay safe around electricity. Energy efficiency. Students learn that by making simple changes around the house and at school they can make a big difference in the world. Renewable energy. Students learn about alternative energy sources. The lesson is designed to inform students about alternative ways to generate energy, such as solar, hydroelectric, wind and biomass. This year, students from King Kaumualii, Eleele, Kilauea and Koloa schools are competing to win prizes for themselves, their classrooms and their school by collecting as many lessefficient incandescent light bulbs as they can and help Charlie replace them with more efficient compact fluorescent lights, provided by KIUC’s energy efficiency team, led by Claurino Bueno. They are running neck and neck. We wish them all luck!

Though cooperatives had been running utilities and agricultural enterprises on the Mainland for decades, they were practically unknown in Hawaiʻi. The founders of KIUC believed the coop concept would hold special appeal on Kauaʻi because of the island’s character as a self sufficient place where neighbors helped neighbors and family was valued nearly above all else. The founders and other community leaders persisted during a turbulent journey that lasted more than three years and changed the course of Kauaʻi’s future. Ten years ago—on Nov. 1, 2002—their dream was realized when the people of Kauaʻi took ownership of the island’s electric utility system and became the state’s first electric cooperative. Plantation roots, corporate ownership In 1905, Kauai Electric Co. was incorporated to build a 2,400kilowatt hydroelectric plant for McBryde Sugar Co. on the Wainiha River. In the early 1950s, Kauai Electric merged with Lihue Plantation’s Waiahi Electric Co., keeping the Kauai Electric name. As Kauaʻi’s need for additional power grew, the owners of Kauai Electric—who struggled to find the capital for new generation, transmission and distribution facilities—sold the utility in 1969 to Citizens Utilities, an investorowned company based in Connecticut. In 1999, Citizens announced it was selling its utility companies and shifting its focus to telecommunications. An editorial in the Kaua‘i Business Report suggested that the people buy Kauai Electric. Local banker Jim Mayfield was intrigued by the idea, but tossed the paper in the trash. “But the idea would not leave me,” Mayfield said. “I knew that on a small island like Kauaʻi, there are only a very few people capable of doing a project like this. If I chose not to get involved, it probably would not happen, and Kauaʻi’s electrical company would ultimately be purchased by another forprofit utility company. So, I fished out the article and reread it.” Mayfield met with his friend, Gregg Gardiner, publisher of “101 Things to Do,” and tossed out the idea of forming an electric cooperative so residents could make sure the utility was operated for the benefit of the people. He coldcalled the Hawaiʻi office of the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Hilo, which expressed support, but quickly referred him to Rural Utilities Service staff in Washington, D.C. From there, he was connected to the National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corp., known as CFC. Each night, Mayfield would send CFC questions and concerns. In the morning, the answers would be in his fax inbox. When CFC’s Rich LaRochelle first called Mayfield and expressed CFC’s support, he explained what a coop was. “While I did not understand everything he told me, I came to understand that a coop was similar to an ʻohana … in an extended sense of the term,” Mayfield said. “The term emphasizes that families are bound together and members must cooperate and remember one another. While I knew we would not be able to teach the people of Kauaʻi what a coop was in a short amount of time, we could explain to them that a coop was an ʻohana.” Within 2½ weeks of receiving Kauai Electric’s financial statements, CFC provided Mayfield with a commitment letter for $200 million and two emergency lines of credit for $30 million each for the replacement of equipment and working capital in the event of a hurricane. With a promise of financing in hand, Mayfield— who worked with the executives of Kauai Electric in his job at the bank, and was concerned about a conflict of interest—handed off the leadership role to Gardiner and the plan went public. The first task was to form a board of directors. The initial board was comprised of 11 people. “We were not only the board of directors, but we were also the missionaries for this project,” Gardiner said. “That meant that everyone had to know about the significant details of this project to be able to communicate it with their friends, neighbors, business associates and the community at large.” They Started It There were two groups of people involved in the founding of KIUC: an 11member board that made the first, unsuccessful attempt to buy Kauai Electric in 2000 and an expanded board of 17 people who oversaw the purchase in November 2002. This board ultimately handed off to the first elected board on Feb. 21, 2003. KIUC Organizing Board, 200003 Gregg Gardiner (chairman), publisher of “101 Things To Do” Dennis Esaki (vice chairman), Esaki Surveying and Mapping Inc. Peggy Cha (secretary), provost of Kauaʻi Community College Jerry Gibson (treasurer), general manager of Grand Hyatt Kauaʻi Resort and Spa Brian Barbata, president of Senter Petroleum Michael Loo, director of real estate and development for Princeville Corp. and vice president of Princeville Utilities Co. Clyde Kodani, civil engineer and president of Kodani and Associates John Bandmann, retired Kauai Electric base yard supervisor JoAnn Yukimura, attorney and former mayor and county council member Mary Thronas, former governor’s representative for Kauaʻi Turk Tokita, veteran of the 442nd Infantry Regiment and founder of Kauaʻi People Power Clinton Shiraishi, retired judge, state legislator and county councilman Freckles Smith, businessman active in the visitor industry Walter Barnes, electrical engineer and lead software architect for Motorola Corp. Roberta Wallace, active in Kauaʻi nonprofit, arts and community organizations Fran Brennan, retired insurance executive Rohit Mehta, chemical engineer with experience in electric generating plants From 1999 to 2000, board members were Patty Finley, Dennis Esaki, Clyde Kodani, Jim Mayfield, Jerry Gibson, Ian Kagimoto, Mark Hubbard, Mike Loo, John Bandmann, Gregg Gardiner, Brian Barbata, Robbie Rask and Trudy Senda. Of these people, only 11 served at any given time. General counsel was David Proudfoot, who remains general counsel to KIUC today. DECEMBER 2012 17 Dennis Esaki was one of the first people contacted. For a time, he ignored the calls. “I figured they wanted money from me to invest and I had made some bad investments before,” Esaki said. “After a few more calls, I finally connected with Gregg and other government and community leaders, who kicked around the idea and formed the Kauaʻi Island Utility Cooperative. At that time, we had very high electric rates, with profits going out of state.” Residents not only were paying for damage from Hurricane Iniki in 1992, but the high cost of imported fuel and the energy rate adjustment that allowed the investorowned utility to charge customers more to ensure that the business was profitable. The failed first attempt Gardiner Mayfield Yukimura 18 KIUC CURRENTS On their own credit cards, Gardiner and Mayfield traveled to Washington, D.C., to meet with CFC and National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) staff members to examine thousands of documents related to Citizens’ operation on Kauaʻi. Their job was to determine the value of Kauai Electric. They had enlisted the help of local attorney David Proudfoot, who offered his time for free if the purchase effort failed. To divest itself of its electricity business, Citizens Utilities put together a quasiauction format that lasted about three days. “It filled everyone with anxiety as our price went from $210 million to $285 million,” Gardiner said. “You could literally have cut the tension in the room with a knife. We knew who the other bidder was, and we knew what they were willing to pay. If we did not match and slightly top that offer, we would be out of the running forevermore.” Ultimately successful at the auction, the new KIUC board now had to convince the Hawaiʻi Public Utilities Commission that it was a good deal for Kauaʻi. “Everyone was complaining about the price,” Gardiner said. “We weren’t happy with it, either. But at the time, had we not stayed in the game, we would have been out of it and we’d be looking at another investorowned utility on our island.” KIUC’s application to acquire the assets of Kauai Electric was filed on April 6, 2000. Four months later, the PUC rejected the deal, citing an excessive purchase price. “Many rejoiced, thinking it was a stupid idea, we were overpaying, only the seller wins, etc.,” said Esaki, who became a founding KIUC board member and now sits on the board of NRECA. “Some initial board members lost hope, but not Gregg Gardiner. He bugged me, more than I should have let him, and he bugged many others, too, often using my name. We were going to buy Gregg a koa paddle as a token of all his efforts and tell him to end the pursuit, but he persisted.” Ready for the second round The cooperative board still wanted to strike a deal and Citizens Utilities still wanted to sell Kauai Electric. JoAnn Yukimura, a county council member and former mayor who served as a founding KIUC board member, balked at the price, but embraced the idea of an electric cooperative on Kauaʻi. “I tried to start a housing cooperative here in the 1970s,” she said. “It was too foreign of a concept. But the coop model is grounded in the power of community.” Carol Bain, who has served on the KIUC board since 2007, was among its loudest critics. “There was a hesitancy,” Bain said. “Was this a really good option? For the island to own the utility was a new idea. There was a feeling that maybe someone was trying to take advantage of us.” Yukimura called a meeting, inviting the cooperative’s organizing board and its critics together in an effort to keep the cooperative model alive, while the county contemplated making its own run for the Kauai Electric assets. Five members of the original KIUC board agreed to step down and make room for new board members, including Yukimura and others who had been asking tough questions about the deal. “This was a crazy move, but the thought process was that if they had the information that we had, working together as a group, we still might be able to get this thing done,” said Gardiner, who now lives in Redding, Calif. Walt Barnes of Wailua, an electrical engineer and software architect, was one of the critics who joined the reconfigured KIUC board. “Some members were committed to how bad the first deal was,” Barnes said. “I didn’t care. I just wanted a good deal. The concept was good. It was the deal that was bad.” Fran Brennan, a financial specialist who had overseen mergers and acquisitions, agreed to be on the board only if “we got an investment banker on our side of the table,” Yukimura said. “Everyone knew that was the first step,” she added. Investment banker Bill Collet of Kansas City brought years of experience assisting with cooperative purchases, and help from environmental and engineering experts was critical, Barnes noted. “We drug our feet to do all of this stuff right,” he said. “The more we did that the antsier the seller got.” When Citizens Utilities could not reach a deal with other buyers, the company resumed negotiations with the coop. After the dust settled, the KIUC board offered Citizens Utilities $215 million—which turned out to be the same amount the county had settled on in its valuation of the electric system assets. The cooperative’s second application with the PUC was filed on March 15, 2002. To show the PUC that the public supported the plan, 7,000 signatures had been collected on a petition favoring the purchase. An estimated 500 people attended the PUC hearing in fluorescent green “People Power” Tshirts. The PUC approved the transaction on Sept. 17, 2002. ‘We had no experience’ The first years were rough as a new board and the Kauai Electric staff tried to find their way as a coop. “We struggled with what it meant to be a co op board and coop management,” Barnes said. “We had no experience, and the management of Kauai Electric had no experience dealing with an elected coop board. Our biggest challenge was the constant struggle of defining what board and management should do. The board was all over their face on things that were operational. Management was all over our face on things strategic.” The board hired three CEOs in barely five years and stumbled through a series of staff upheavals and membership unease in the mid 2000s. Oil prices skyrocketed, utility bills rose and members complained they weren’t seeing any of the benefits that the cooperative had promised. Now, 10 years in, Barnes and others cite KIUC’s financial strength, its commitment to renewable resources and the engagement of the community as examples of how KIUC has succeeded as a coop. “We have returned more patronage capital than most co ops,” Barnes said. “That is savings the community would not have had otherwise.” Despite the struggles and occasional disagreements over the direction of the utility, Yukimura insists the coop model was the right model for Kauaʻi. “I know the choice of the fork in the road we made was the right choice,” Yukimura said. “Rate increases were avoided, and money is going back to the community. The coop can bring people together with very divergent ideas and find consensus. “Everyone wants the best for this community, but we don’t agree on how to get there. We need to recognize the opportunity we have with a utility we all own that provides a service for every aspect of our lives. It is critical for our families and businesses. There are so many issues, and so much is at stake. There are exciting times ahead, but lots of work.” Barnes Esaki Bain A traditional Hawaiian blessing was part of the coop’s founding celebration. DECEMBER 2012 19 Hey, Do We Have Your Money?! Every year, KIUC publishes a list of members who we owe a patronage capital refund. The patronage capital is the money KIUC has left after paying all of its expenses in a given year. At the end of the year, that money is credited to each member’s patronage capital account, according to the amount paid for electricity used. In past years, KIUC issued checks to members, so it is possible some of those on the list simply forgot to cash the check or accidentally threw it away. That’s one of the reasons KIUC switched to reflecting patronage capital as a credit on bills once a year. If your name appears on the list, you must apply for a refund. Please complete the refund form on the opposite page and provide a copy of a picture ID as proof that the person requesting the refund is the same as the account holder. You can mail in the form or bring it in to our office. If you need additional forms, you can download one from our website at www.kiuc.coop. If you have questions about patronage capital, please call 2464300. Please allow 45 business days for us to process your request.

Yetiv Why the Latest Energy Boom Won’t Mean Cheaper Oil The United States is experiencing a boom in oil and natural gas production—one that many people see as a gamechanging, tectonic shift in our energy picture. But while the boom is real, the benefits are less than meet the eye. The United States produces 1.6 million more barrels of oil each day now than it did in 2008. That’s a significant increase in a world that consumes around 89 million barrels per day, with the United States accounting for about a quarter of that amount. In addition, America’s net petroleum imports have fallen from 60 percent of total consumption in 2005 to 42 percent today. This is partly because of new discoveries and the reclamation of “tight oil” using hydraulic fracturing technology that shoots pressurized liquids into compact, underground rock formations—the same technology driving the natural gas boom. But what does this oil boom really mean? Will it deliver lower oil prices and enhance energy security, which is what most Americans want and many may expect? We should not be overly optimistic. First, the boom would mean far more if America alone used its own oil resources. But oil is a global commodity. Imagine a giant pool of oil. No matter where the oil comes from, buyers will pay roughly the same price for it. And all of that extra American oil will be sold chiefly on global oil markets, not set aside for Americans. As an extreme example, Norway is a net exporter of oil, but its gas prices are very high, even after accounting for that country’s higher fuel taxes. Second, it follows that because oil is traded globally, a supply disruption or development anywhere in the world affects oil prices for all consumers. Even if the United States were to import little oil because of a homegrown energy boom, Americans would still be vulnerable to global events that raise the price of oil. Third, the energy boom probably won’t stop oil speculation—the purchase of oil futures to make a quick buck rather than to obtain oil. Tens of billions of dollars went into the nation’s energy commodity markets in the past few years, earmarked to buy oil futures contracts. Institutional and hedge funds are investing increasingly in oil, which has prompted President Obama and others to call for curbs on oil speculation. Data released in March 2011 by Bart Chilton, a member of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission who has urged limits on speculation, suggest that speculators increased their positions in energy markets by 64 percent between June 2008 and January 2011. 30 KIUC CURRENTS The rub is that despite the domestic oil boom, speculators will still buy oil futures whenever they think oil prices will rise. Of course, extra American oil on the market might temper speculation under some conditions, but then again, it might not. Fourth, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries won’t sit by idly if America’s boom begins to hurt oil prices seriously. Its members will most likely agree to decrease their production to try to keep prices higher. For instance, in June, when the price of oil dropped to around $80 a barrel from $107 in March, fellow OPEC producers pressured Saudi Arabia to cut output. Producers need oil revenues to maintain their cradletograve welfare states; otherwise, they could face Arab Spring revolts at home, which most oilrich countries have avoided by using their wealth to quell dissent and maintain domestic control. Fifth, a backlash against hydraulic fracturing, which can pollute water, is growing as Americans learn more about it. Technological breakthroughs may make the process— popularly known as fracking—safer, but it’s not apparent when or if they could be implemented at a reasonable cost. To be sure, the American boom has its positives. The world needs all forms of energy to meet its rising demand, and the boom will help in that regard. It could also dampen the impact of oil disruptions, especially if the drilling revolution goes global down the road. Use of America’s abundant natural gas can also offset reliance on dirtier coal. But let’s not exaggerate what the energy boom can do for the United States and American consumers. At its current pace, the oil boom probably won’t significantly lower prices—though it may temper their rise at times. Greater oil independence does not equal greater oil price independence—something lost in our national debate. And finally, a boom in fossil fuels is hardly something to celebrate, given the urgency of climate change. A green revolution would protect future generations from climate havoc and wean us from our dependence on the vagaries of oil prices. We shouldn’t let the fossilfuel boom divert our attention from that goal. Steve A.

However, yeartodate electricity use on the island continues to be 2 percent lower than last year. Despite the reduction in sales volume, KIUC is doing everything it can, while maintaining safety and reliability, to reduce costs in various areas to operate efficiently and effectively, and continue to maintain a strong financial position. Revenues, expenses and net margins totaled $155.4 million, $146.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively, for the 10month period ending October 31, 2012. As is the case for all electric utilities, the cost of power generation is the largest expense, totaling $97.7 million or 62.9 percent of revenues. Fuel costs are the largest component of power generation, totaling $84.6 million or 54.5 percent of revenues, and representing 86.6 percent of the cost of power generation. The remaining $13.1 million or 8.4 percent of revenues and 13.4 percent of the cost of power generation represents the cost of operating and maintaining the generating units.
