CEA’s Mike Butler Calls for Thoughtful Energy Policy in Pennsylvania

The high bridge at the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

The U.S., and Pennsylvania, are amid a profound energy revolution that won’t be slowing anytime soon, says CEA’s Mike Butler. He cites dynamic breakthroughs in energy infrastructure including shale gas development, pipeline expansion, nuclear and renewables as a driving force, and discusses outlying factors on issues across the globe, from Russia to the Middle East to Venezuela and beyond.

This time of year, I can’t help but think of my days as a student at Dickinson College. I loved my time at that school and still consider Carlisle my home away from home. I am, however, saddened that my liberal arts college and its students have chosen to only focus on topics that some in the media consider “trendy” — like energy policy — without thoroughly examining the issues from more than one prospective.

7th Annual Energy Day Festival in Houston

Energy Day Houston

HOUSTON — Consumer Energy Alliance (CEA) and Consumer Energy Education Foundation (CEEF) will donate $10,000 to help Houston-area classrooms rebuild following Hurricane Harvey during the 7th annual Energy Day Festival, on Saturday, Oct. 21, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Sam Houston Park, 1000 Bagby St., in downtown Houston.

Energy Day, a free event geared towards students of all ages, will continue its tradition of connecting industry employers to their future workforce by showcasing exciting state-of-the-art technologies and innovations that only those equipped with classroom skills in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) can fulfill.

“Energy Day has a proud history of showing families and teachers in Houston how much fun it is to learn the skills needed to innovate and expand upon safe, responsible ways to develop energy, advanced technologies and continue research in fossil fuels, nuclear and renewable energy development,” CEA President and event organizer David Holt said. “And we are excited to announce that as part of this year’s festivities, Energy Day will take time to recognize and provide financial support to local schools, children, and teachers impacted by the historic Hurricane Harvey.”

In addition to awarding nearly $17,000 to more than 145 students and teachers during the Energy Day Award Ceremony, CEA and CEEF will take a moment to pause and present a check for $10,000, to be divided up amongst three schools hit hard by the hurricane in the Pasadena Independent School District.

Energy Day comes at a time when the energy and manufacturing sectors continue to face a shortage of workers equipped with STEM-related skills, as evidenced by the U.S. ranking 38th out of 71 countries in math scores and 24th in science, according to recent international testing results. According to Pew, only 29 percent of Americans rated U.S. STEM education above average for K-12 as recently as 2015.

“Americans know the importance of STEM, and they know our country needs to improve how it’s being taught,” Holt said. “Houston is not only the nation’s energy capital; it must be the STEM capital too. Our energy sector continues to lead the way in cutting costs and providing important opportunities for families and communities by improving global competitiveness, diversifying our fuel supply and improving the environment, and that can’t continue unless we strive to attract more students to STEM.”

With more than 50 interactive exhibits and demonstrations from many of Houston’s leading companies – including Phillips 66, Telemundo Houston, Noble Energy, Golden Pass LNG, Caterpillar, Direct Energy, University of Houston, Anadarko, ConocoPhillips, Chevron, TransCanada, Statoil, BHP Billiton and SHALE Magazine – each exhibit is designed to spark interest in STEM by highlighting ongoing advancements in energy and various high-tech careers. Exhibits include air cannons, catapults, hydro-blasters, and Solar Ovens which roast marshmallows without fire. The outdoor festival will also feature food, music, games, contests and more.

This year, Energy Day will host a new contest for teachers, where educators can submit lesson plans based on a STEM concept they saw implemented at Energy Day. The top three lesson plans will be awarded gift cards for their efforts to create new unique ways to get children excited about STEM in the classroom.

Since the Energy Day Academic Program began in 2011, CEA and CEEF have awarded nearly $100,000 to more than 670 K-12 teachers and students.

Transportation to Energy Day will be provided free of charge to the event from several Houston area school districts. To learn more about Energy Day and its accompanying 2017 Energy Day Academic Program, visit https://energydayfestival.org/houston/.

Minnesota Hears It From Both Sides Over Enbridge Oil Pipeline

Public Hearing

State leaders in Minnesota heard from both sides of the debate over the Enbridge Line 3 project, which would replace an aging crude oil pipeline currently operating in the state. CEA State Affairs Policy Group Vice President, Brydon Ross, appeared before the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission to explain the impact on consumers.

“One of the ways that U.S. energy security could be threatened is a lack of investment in energy infrastructure or reinvestment in existing infrastructure,” Brydon Ross, the vice president of state affairs for Consumer Energy Alliance, testified before the state Public Utilities Commission. “There is no better example of this than the current discussions revolving around modernizing Line 3 – part of a system that supplies 80 percent of all crude oil to Minnesota refineries.”

1World Needs New Offshore Oil Investments (via Reuters)

Higher investments in offshore oil production are critical to avoiding a supply squeeze by 2020, as expanding shale output will not match projected demand increases in the next few years, U.S. oil producer Hess Corp. said on Thursday. The past four years of low oil prices have major producers pulling back on needed offshore investment, and the gap between supply and demand should help prices rebound, Hess Chief Operating Officer Greg Hill said at an energy conference at Rice University’s Baker Institute.

GasBuddy, an information technology firm that tracks fuel prices at gas stations across the American landscape, has announced a new program aimed at drivers who would like to save a few cents per gallon each time they fill up with gasoline or diesel. The “Pay with GasBuddy” offer consists of an electronic discounts card that must be connected to a bank account, which means that drivers will have to pay with their debit cards in order to benefit from the program. The first time at the pump, drivers will save 15 cents per gallon; subsequent refill will net savings of 5 cents per gallon.

4Energy Sector Attracts More Investors (via Barrons)

Crude oil prices are expected to maintain prices around $50 per gallon in 2018; currently, this estimate may not sound like much, however, it certainly indicates an improvement for the battered oil industry, which is once again attracting investors to its midst. According to a recent article published by Barron’s, Goldman Sachs analysts feel pretty upbeat about the gradual return of investors to the energy sector, particularly because they know that the major oil companies are investing in renewable energy projects instead of trying to squeeze more profits from petroleum, an energy source that is not as profitable as it used to be.

The U.S. territory of Puerto Rico is struggling to recover from the devastation left by two hurricanes this year; one of the biggest challenges thus far has been the total destruction of the power grid, which is exacerbating conditions at local hospitals. Officials do not expect to be able to restore electrical service for a few months, but engineers are already looking towards the future of the island. The potential of installing a smart grid network with underground cables and advanced backup systems is being discussed. Smart grids also offer the benefit of regulating output so that excess energy is stored by battery charging systems that would replace generators, which have been operating intermittently on the island due to fuel shortages.

CEA Makes Statement on DOE’s Proposed Rule-making for Grid Reliability

New York park in winter

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Consumer Energy Alliance (CEA) acknowledged the significance of the Department of Energy’s (DOE) request that FERC undertakes a comprehensive review of wholesale energy markets in light of concerns over resilience and reliability.

This is the first follow-up to the grid study requested earlier this year by DOE Secretary Rick Perry, which recommended that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) take steps to protect the resiliency and reliability of the grid.

These advances, which reflect technological innovation and new market realities, are central to regulating our power markets across the country. CEA President David Holt issued the following statement supporting the agency and its new rulemaking proposal:

“We support efforts at the national and state levels to ensure electricity is affordable and reliable,” Holt said. “The discussion of grid resiliency and reliability, initiated by the Department’s Grid Study, is important, especially in light of the grid issues facing many parts of our nation today – and made abundantly clear by the real-time crises we are seeing in Puerto Rico. We look forward to reviewing the proposal and working with both the DOE and FERC on this issue, which is so important to families, households, and businesses across the country.”

Holt added: “We’re not just thinking about the short-term; we’re thinking about the future. How do we continue to meet the growing energy demand? That is why CEA has long advocated for an all-of-the-above approach to energy development and policy, to ensure we have enough of a diversified fuel mix to meet electricity demand and provide affordable, reliable energy to families and businesses across the country.”

Consumer Group Testifies in Support of Line 3 in St. Paul

Line 3 Replacement

ST. PAUL, MN – SEPTEMBER 28, 2017 – Stressing the need to modernize energy delivery infrastructure to ensure families and businesses across the state of Minnesota have access to reliable energy, Brydon Ross, Vice President for State Affairs for Consumer Energy Alliance (CEA), urged the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission to consider just what is at stake as they make considerations on the Line 3 Replacement Project.

“For over a year now, Consumer Energy Alliance has been running a campaign called ‘Pipelines for America’ and addressing the consequences to families and businesses across the United States who oppose, and likely take for granted, the construction of energy delivery systems like Line 3,” Ross said. “The current debate surrounding the replacement project is a prime example.”

Testifying to the billions of dollars in private investment that would be made to upgrade and replace the state’s energy delivery infrastructure, Ross said the project would create more than 8,000 high-paying jobs and ensure hard-working Minnesotan families have access to four out of every five barrels the Line carries that is critical to going about their daily lives. He also stressed that, should the project not be approved, those who would be hit hardest would be those who can least afford higher energy costs – like people living paycheck to paycheck and on fixed incomes, struggling to get by.

“Even the Department of Commerce’s most recent report, which opponents of Line 3 like to cite, acknowledges the negative effects that decommissioning or failing to replace Line 3 would have on prices for families and small businesses,” Ross said. “So, how is the construction and replacement of this line even remotely controversial? How did we get to a point in our society where people have started to question the critical role infrastructure like Line 3 plays? I want to ask, ‘Are we really educating our communities, and are we truly doing right by the families and businesses that reside in them?’”

Through “Modernizing Minnesota” and CEA’s “Pipelines for America” campaign, it has been the organization’s mission at the request of members across the country to continue advocating for access to reliable energy that keeps costs low for their businesses, as well as the 450,000 grassroots members across the U.S. that want to keep energy affordable for their families.

“Like many projects we support and will continue to support across the country, the Line 3 replacement project is not only important to this state and its communities but to so many people across the country who depend on energy to power their lives each day,” Ross concluded.

“We wholeheartedly agree with activists on the environment, but we disagree with their approach for finding solutions to ensure sensible energy development, because they have none,” he added.

CEA Testifies before Minnesota PUC in St. Paul on the Line 3 Replacement Project

St. Paul Minnesota

Testimony before the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission Public and Evidentiary Hearing – St. Paul, Minnesota Line 3 Replacement Project

September 28, 2017

Judge O’Reilly, my name is Brydon Ross, and I serve as the Vice President of State Affairs for Consumer Energy Alliance (CEA).

On behalf of CEA and our more than 450,000 grassroots members and over 80,000 members comprised of households and families in the Great Lakes Region and  Minnesota, I wish to thank you for the opportunity to speak today and share our support for the Line 3 Replacement Project.

Founded in 2006, CEA is the leading consumer advocate in support of affordable, reliable energy for working families, seniors, individuals on low and fixed incomes, and small businesses across the country.

CEA encourages the development and delivery of all American energy resources, from oil and natural gas to renewable and alternative energies as key resources to creating a balanced and sensible energy policy – a policy that can protect Minnesota families and small businesses while promoting a stronger, healthier economy, along with a clean environment.

A thoughtful all-of-the-above approach can help ensure our communities have diversified energy supplies for electricity generation. The availability of supply also applies to how we fuel our cars to get to and from work or school, supply our trucks and commercial vehicles with energy that bring us the goods we use every day, and makes global and cross-country air travel possible.  CEA strongly believes a balanced energy mix – focused on affordability and reliability – is ultimately the best course for workers, households, and our environment.

CEA also believes a balanced energy mix must take into account energy security.  Energy security, as we see it, is defined as the relationship between our country’s ability to meet its energy needs and our ability to access affordable supplies of energy.

A variety of factors, such as international politics, economics, and technological factors means the landscape of energy security is constantly in flux.

One of the ways that U.S. energy security could be threatened, is a lack of investment in energy infrastructure or reinvestment in existing infrastructure.  There is no better example of this than the current discussions revolving around modernizing Line 3 – part of a system that supplies 80 percent of all crude oil to Minnesota refineries.

At CEA we established Pipelines for America, a public education campaign designed to convey how our nation’s pipeline infrastructure is built, maintained, and modernized to ensure access to affordable, reliable supplies of energy that, unfortunately, many individuals take for granted.

The current debate surrounding Line 3’s replacement is a prime example. Billions in private investment will be made to upgrade and replace our energy delivery infrastructure while creating over 8,000 high-paying jobs, and ensuring hard-working Minnesota families have access to four out of every five barrels so they can continue to go about their daily lives as normal. But this energy has to stay online.

How is this even remotely controversial? How did we get to a point in our society where people question the critical role this infrastructure plays? What would happen to prices and supply without Line 3? The answer is simple – they’d go up. And those impacts would be felt the hardest by those who can afford it least – those living paycheck to paycheck, which is all too common, and those on fixed incomes just struggling to get by.

Even the Department of Commerce’s most recent report, which opponents of Line 3 like to cite, acknowledges the negative effects that decommissioning or failing to replace Line 3 would have on prices for families and small businesses.

It also defies logic that by those claiming to ‘protect the environment’, would oppose the newest, and most up to date materials, and technology we have today to deliver the energy we need.

Pipelines are the safest, most efficient, and most environmentally-sound way to transport energy– and the Line 3 project is no exception.  Utilizing state-of-the-art technology, in both material and construction techniques, Line 3 replacement will also utilize advancements in technologies that are capable of automating shut-off valves and 24/7 monitoring.

For the benefit of all energy consumers in Minnesota – families, farmers, small businesses – it is critical that infrastructure projects like the Line 3 replacement proceed to protect energy affordability and reliability.

Thank you again for the opportunity to provide comment today.

Colorado’s Inaugural Energy Day Festival Kicks Off Amidst a Flash of Cold Weather

Dr. Peter Green at Colorado Energy Day

DENVER, CO. – Despite the cold weather, children, parents, and families joined Consumer Energy Alliance (CEA) and over 54 organizations to celebrate the state’s first annual Energy Day Festival, a STEM and energy education event, at East High School in Denver on Saturday, September 23rd.

Attendees also included educators and local officials who saw 40 interactive exhibits highlighting a wide range of educational institutions and energy companies – from renewables and utilities to oil and gas – that came out to showcase various types of energy production, technology, and efficiencies within the energy industry. These companies and organizations play a dynamic role in Colorado’s robust economy and energize communities across the state. As a one-of-a-kind event, Governor Hickenlooper, through the Colorado Energy Office, proclaimed Saturday, September 23rd as Energy Day in Colorado.

More than just promoting interest in energy and STEM education, Energy Day also presented 19 students and a teacher with scholarship awards for their achievements within the classroom and in various science competitions across the state. In addition to the day’s exhibitors and awards ceremony, guests were treated to food from local food truck vendors and music from 95.7 The Party.

With the help of Energy360, Consumer Energy Alliance organized and supported this important inaugural event. Following the day’s festivities, CEA Chief Operating Officer, and local Colorado resident, Andrew Browning issued the following statement:

“Denver and the state of Colorado have become not only a leader in energy development, but a leader in STEM and energy education. With so many energy types supported in the state, it is important for the youth in our communities to understand the education needed through science, technology, engineering and mathematics that can help to develop future careers.”

“We had an exceptional variety of educational institutions, energy companies, and organizations focused on conservation and efficiency dedicated to showcasing not only the opportunities there are across the energy industry for students who are motivated within STEM, but how fun those jobs can be if they apply themselves.”

“With more people within the oil and gas sector retiring and as the renewable sector continues to grow, there are a wealth of opportunities for the future generation of energy experts. CEA is extremely pleased with our inaugural Energy Day and we look forward to building and expanding the event with our partners and sponsors in the years to come.”

Browning also added: “These exhibitors really went the extra mile to ensure kids and their families had fun. All of the exhibits demonstrated how technology and efficiencies have helped lead these industries forward. From the technologies that help these companies operate to schools who presented fun ways to understand robotics and physics – these organizations also helped teach participants about fun ways to conserve and be more energy efficient through quizzes and displays. With how focused Coloradoans are on STEM education and our future, it is no doubt that this will be an event our community can stand behind.”

Some of this year’s sponsors dedicated to STEM education and energy included, Vestas, PDC Energy, S&P Global, Anadarko, Xcel Energy, Extraction Oil & Gas, Crestone Peak Resources.

1Electricity Infrastructure in Puerto Rico Decimated

The United States island territory of Puerto Rico will likely not see electrical power restored before the end of the year. The power grid and the energy infrastructure in the Caribbean territory have been thoroughly devastate by the destructive paths of Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria. In an interview with news network CNN, Puerto Rican Governor Ricardo Rosello explained that the island is 100 percent without power; the only electricity is being produced by a few generators as well as isolated solar panels that were not connected to the grid. The Governor admitted that the grid of Puerto Rico was aging and in disrepair before the hurricanes made landfall.

2Renewable Energy Credits Become Easier to Purchase

More investors are showing interest in acquiring renewable energy credits (RECs), which are financial instruments tied to the performance of companies that provide these emerging resources, and the purchase process is becoming easier. In many cases, companies are purchasing RECs to offset their own carbon footprint; the purpose is two-fold since there is a profit expectation, but there are also compliance issues insofar as legal requirements imposed by regulators in terms of environmental protection. Trading of RECs is not allowed in all jurisdictions; however, utilities such as Puget Sound Energy in Seattle are beginning to offer their own RECs locally. At this time, RECs are mostly for large corporations, but market regulators expect that they will soon be available to individual investors who can purchase them in a fashion similar to bonds.

3Fuel Prices Still on the Rise After Hurricane Maria

Following a report by the U.S. Department of Energy on September 22, fuel prices are expected to keep climbing in the wake of the three hurricanes that have impacted Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico. The report indicates that a significant draw from American oil reserves was needed in the wake of Hurricane Harvey’s path through Texas, and the draw continued after Hurricane Irma made landfall in Florida and Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico. Analysts believe that the draw from crude oil reserves, the largest that the U.S. has experienced since 2005, will cause gasoline and diesel prices to climb at gas stations across the U.S. over the next few months.

4Tech Startup Explores Do-It-Yourself Solar Panels

PLX Devices, an American company that specializes in small solar panel technology, has started a Kickstarter project that seeks to commercialize 100-watt residential panels that homeowners and even renters should be able to install on their own. The DIY panels deliver enough energy to power a few electronic devices and some incandescent bulbs; however, they can also be installed as a daisy chain to generate up to 12.8 kW, which should translate into average savings of about $24 per month. A starter set will cost $299 and each additional panel $99; the company is looking into inverter and battery storage technology to complement its current offerings.
