McGrath, Alaska Community Energy Plan

Summary

The remote Alaskan community of McGrath faces significant challenges with its vulnerable and high-cost energy system, being heavily reliant on diesel fuel. To address this, McGrath participated in the U.S. Department of Energy's ETIPP program, forming a local energy committee that worked with technical advisors to assess current energy infrastructure, identify key focus areas for improvement, and develop a comprehensive community energy plan. This plan serves as a foundational guide for future projects aimed at increasing energy resilience and exploring alternative energy sources, with implementation currently underway.
