  • Getting the Most out of CHP Potential
    ICF QUICK TAKE Getting the Most Out of CHP Potential By Rick Tidball and Anne Hampson CHP Economics Driving Customer Demand Combined heat and power (CHP) plays a significant role in U.S. electricity generation—larger than many observers realize, but not anywhere near its potential. In 2014, approximately 4,400 CHP installations in the United States accounted for 12 percent of electricity production and 8 percent of power generation capacity—83 gigawatts. CHP deployment is poised to grow further in the near-to-medium term, due to increasingly compelling economics. A 10 megawatt (MW) system appropriate for many industrial and large commercial applications can reduce site energy costs by 47 percent and achieve economic payback in 3.7 years, even without including (potentially significant) tax credits or incentives (Table 1)1,2. The current low-cost environment for natural gas, which fuels 70 percent of CHP installations, is expected to be sustained in the coming years. ICF’s recent quarterly Natural Gas Strategic Forecast suggests that Henry Hub prices will rise to only $4.35/MMBtu (2014 dollars) in 2020 and remain below $5.50/MMBtu through 2030. Furthermore, there are parts of the United States (such as the Northeast and Midwest) that will continue to have lower gas prices than Henry Hub, due to shale gas production. In addition, the value of reduced emissions is expected to increase as new environmental regulations and policies are adopted, including state initiatives meant to enable greater deployment of distributed energy and the federal Clean Power Plan, which will put an implicit (or explicit) price on carbon.

Photo by Jocelyn Augustino, FEMA INTRODUCTION This CorpWatch report by Eliza Strickland and Azibuike Akaba tells the story of corporate malfeasance and government incompetence two years after Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans. This is our second report—Big, Easy Money by Rita J. King was the first—and it digs into a slew of new scandals. We have broken the report up into three parts: the struggle at the electricity and timber companies who have taken by ordinary residents to return home, the major effort to fix advantage of the emergency aid to expand, rather than limit, the broken Gulf Coast infrastructure, and finally—what the the impact of their environmentally destructive businesses.

  • Stranded and Squandered: Lost on the Road Home
    59 Stranded and Squandered: Lost on the Road Home Davida Finger 1 The staggering devastation following the 2005 Gulf Coast hurricanes and levee failures brought attention to inadequate local, state, and federal government responses. As rebuilding progresses in hurricane-impacted areas, images of those waiting for rescue on rooftops have vanished. However, urgent need remains for many still trying to rebuild their homes and lives. This article focuses on one specific disaster response that has fallen short in helping homeowners’ rebuilding efforts: the state of Louisiana’s Road Home Program. Throughout this article, “Road Home” refers to the program overseen by the state of Louisiana and implemented by ICF, the private contractor hired by the State. The launch of Road Home was announced by former Governor Kathleen Blanco on August 22, 2006, approximately one year after the 2005 Gulf Coast hurricanes.2 Created to “help Louisiana residents get back into their homes or apartments as quickly and fairly as possible,”3 Road Home is the state of Louisiana’s initiative to distribute federal rebuilding dollars. Through the Katrina Clinic at Loyola Law School in New Orleans, I have given direct assistance to many hundreds of Road Home applicants, and with other advocates, have called for changes to Road Home policies. With Road Home now administered under Governor Bobby Jindal’s authority, applicants and their advocates continue to encounter barriers while navigating complicated, ever-changing, and undisclosed rules. All told, Road Home has proved to be anything but quick and fair. The average homeowner in the Road Home Program received $54,586 less than was actually needed to rebuild.4 60 SEATTLE JOURNAL FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE Homeowners have experienced tremendous difficulties in navigating this government program that was supposed to enable rebuilding in Louisiana.
