It’s about an Energy Economy
… Its Jobs!
Energy = Jobs
Energy Sector as Jobs Provider
• Oil and Gas Industry
9.2 million jobs
• Alberta Oil Sands
343,000 new jobs in US – 2011-15
• Electricity Generation
250,000 direct jobs
• Ethanol Industry supports
220,000 jobs
Energy = Jobs
The American Economy Relies on Affordable, Reliable
Energy
• More than 3.7 million manufacturing jobs lost since 2007
• High energy prices a major factor
• 4,200 trucking companies closed due to high diesel prices
between 2Q 2007 and 4Q 2008
• 10 Airlines shut down due to high jet fuel prices in 2008 alone
• Over 360,000 jobs lost

Wind & Solar Facts
Wind Facts*:

United States wind power generation now totals 35,159 MW and
is produced in 35 states

Powers close to 9.7 million American homes.

Capacity grew 39% between 2008 and 2009.

The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) estimates 38
manufacturing companies were brought online, announced or
expanded in the United States in 2009.

The United States ranks 1st in the world in wind power
generation above China and Germany for 2009, per the Global
Wind Energy Center (GWEC).
* Numbers provided by AWEA unless otherwise noted.
Wind & Solar Facts
Solar Facts*:

United States solar power generation now totals 8,775 MW

Powers close to 1.5 million American homes.

Capacity grew about 10% between 2007 and 2008
* Numbers provided by the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) unless otherwise noted.

How to Improve Transmission Utilization
•
Geographic Diversity (wind in multiple locations)
•
Blending wind with solar and other renewables
•
Use of gas-fired generation for “firming” and meeting load

Local Market versus Export Market
•
•
•
•
•
Estimated wind energy potential exceeds local needs.
– NREL estimate of Ports-to-Plains states:
5 to 9 million MW
– US installed generating capacity 2008 (all fuels) 1.1 million MW
Everyone wants to export to either California or southeast
States are trying to be first to market:
– Competing with each other for economic development opportunities
– Want to change transmission planning philosophy to focus on wind
export in addition to reliability
Export scenarios will put tremendous stress on existing transmission built
primarily to serve local load.
Electric system stability will limit installed wind generation installation to a
fraction of the theoretical capability.
What About Those Oil Sands? -- The Opportunity
‫٭‬Ft McMurray
• There are 1.7 trillion
barrels of oil in the
Canadian Oil Sands
• Over half of this
potential resides in the
Athabasca McMurray
Sandstone
• Only 20% can be
mined – the rest is too
deep

Why Colorado? …
Almost 73% of Truck Trade with Mexico goes
through PTP Ports of Laredo, Eagle, Pass
and Del Rio.
The market share of Colorado’s trade with
Canada has increased 7.5% since 2004
through PTP Ports of Sweetgrass, Wild
Horse, Raymond and Portal.
It’s about the rural heartland …
Most communities under 20,000 population
Most communities are a long way from their state
capitals.
Most communities have little voice in
Washington, D.C.
How can we be heard about …
The importance of a national transportation vision
The value of freight corridors
The importance of connecting rural areas to
markets
How can we be heard about …
The importance of NHS High Priority Corridors
connecting to new markets north and south.
The expansion of these corridors
The value of Border Infrastructure to Commerce
and Security
How can we be heard about …
The need for a pilot project addressing truck
permitting, weights and combinations
Opposition to legislation that limits the
opportunities for expansion of rural highways
The opportunity for North American energy
security
How can we be heard about …
All these items through a
multi-state caucus!
How can we be heard about …
