FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 170
2022 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This legislation would create and establish parameters for the Alaska Energy Independence Fund (Fund) and the Alaska
Independence Program (Program) within the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA). It provides
AIDEA with the ability to arrange financing to suit Alaska's unique energy and finance needs, particularly with regard to
addressing urban and rural energy requirements. It is estimated that establishing the Fund would create new jobs and
businesses, lower commercial and household energy costs for redeployment in Alaska's economy, and improve Alaska's
energy independence.
Proposed Fund Capitalization: $20 million
The appropriation represents a level of capitalization to optimally fulfill the mission and growth of the Fund and to ensure
that the Fund has sufficient capital to achieve the goals articulated in this legislation.
