A study conducted of the costs of the Council's 

 conservation program, per unit of energy saved, brings 

 into question the cost-effectiveness of conserving or 

 Hithdraning that annual 1500 aMH by the year 2000. 



BPA is spending S2. 8 Bill Ion to acquire all 

 proven cost effective energy conservation 

 available. (DOE/BPA InfoRelease 12/11/92) 



and 



l^e 're going to have to spend S7 Billion by the 

 year 2000 for conservation. (Ed Sheets, Executive 

 Director, Morthitest Potter Planning Council, per 

 McCall-AP 6/12/9J). 



Acquiring energy conservation at a uniform annual rate 

 over eight years toward the 1991 POWER PLAN'S "call to 

 action for 1500 a«H by the year 2000", equates to 1500 

 aMH for four years or 52.5 Billion kilowatt-hours* 

 saved in the first of two conservation efforts called 

 for by the Northwest Power Planning Council. Then 

 BPA's $2.8 Billion of our revenue is 5.3 cents per 

 kilowatt-hour unit of energy saved if all assigned to 



4 Yrs X 1500aHM x 8,760.000 kHh/aHH = 52.5 Billion kHh
