Energy Updates: August 2026
With autumn around the bend, energy is on our minds. This month we’ve got an important GVEA update and the good news that AK LNG tax subsidies finally fell flat.
July energy updates
Summer in Alaska is in full swing, which means the wildflowers are blooming, the fish are running, the sun is shining, and ... the Legislature is still in session?! Keep on reading for a rad story on balcony solar, aka plug-in solar, as well as an update on the AKLNG pipe dream pipeline project. 😎
June energy updates
This month, there are two big things going on in the Alaskan energy world: the legislature is nearing the end of their special session focused exclusively on legislation to give tax breaks to the AK LNG project, plus three pieces of news from GVEA (two great, one not so great).
GVEA just voted to bring on more wind energy for the interior.
Last night, the GVEA Board voted to sign a Term Sheet with Amaresco for development of 36 MW wind energy in Delta. This is very good news for clean energy and energy security in the Interior!
