THAT WORK INCLUDES SUPPORTING A BUILD-OUT OF TRANSMISSION LINES TO BRING WIND FROM THE AREAS WITH THE BEST RESOURCE (IN THE GREAT PLAINS) TO AREAS WITH MORE DEMAND (FURTHER EAST). WE WORK WITH MISO STAKEHOLDERS AND STAFF TO FIND INNOVATIVE WAYS TO DEPLOY ENERGY STORAGE AND DEMAND RESPONSE THAT WILL MAKE THE GRID MORE ADAPTIVE TO INTEGRATED VARIABLE SOURCES - LIKE WIND AND SOLAR - AT VERY HIGH LEVELS. WE ARE ALSO RESEARCHING THE MOST INNOVATIVE STORAGE AND DEMAND RESPONSE TECHNOLOGIES TO HELP DECISION-MAKERS UNDERSTAND THEIR OPTIONS.ADVANCING THE FRAMEWORK FOR MOVING TOWARD 'UTILITIES OF THE FUTURE': * MADISON GAS AND ELECTRIC (MGE).

OVER 10 PROJECTS RECEIVED IN-DEPTH ASSISTANCE WITH DEPLOYING CLEAN ENERGY AT THE LOCAL LEVEL. * SMALL BUSINESS ENERGY COACHING. THROUGH METRO CERT, GPI IS WORKING WITH THE LAKE STREET COUNCIL, A LOCAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION, AND ENERGY SMART, AN ENERGY EFFICIENCY ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION SERVICE OF THE MN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, TO DEVELOP A NEW MODEL FOR HOW SMALL AND MINORITY-OWNED BUSINESS OWNERS HEAR ABOUT AND IMPLEMENT ENERGY EFFICIENCY. IN 2015 WE PILOTED THE "SMALL BUSINESS ENERGY COACHES" MODEL ON LAKE STREET, UTILIZING OUTREACH STAFF FROM THE LAKE STREET COUNCIL TO SERVE AS MESSENGERS AND TRUSTED 3RD-PARTY FACILITATORS IN CONNECTING BUSINESS OWNERS TO ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAMS. TO DATE, WE'VE COMPLETED 84 ENERGY ASSESSMENTS AT BUSINESSES AND ORGANIZATIONS ON LAKE STREET. OF THOSE, NEARLY HALF WERE BUSINESSES OWNED BY PEOPLE OF COLOR AND APPROXIMATELY 60% OF THE BUSINESS OWNERS REPORTED THAT THEY HAD NEVER PREVIOUSLY CONSIDERED SEEKING OUT AN ENERGY ASSESSMENT.

THROUGH METRO CERT, GPI HAS WORKED ON 3 PROJECTS TO SUCCESSFULLY DEPLOY SOLAR GARDENS IN THE GREATER TWIN CITIES METROPOLITAN AREA. FIRST, WE PARTNERED WITH THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL, HENNEPIN COUNTY, RAMSEY COUNTY, AND THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS TO DEVELOP A COLLABORATIVE PROJECT THROUGH WHICH 30 LOCAL GOVERNMENT ENTITIES HAVE POOLED THEIR BUYING POWER TO PROCURE SOLAR GARDEN SUBSCRIPTIONS UNDER A SINGLE PROCUREMENT PROCESS, LED BY THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL. SECOND, WE PROVIDED SEED FUNDING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO THE CITY OF EDINA TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A ROOFTOP SOLAR GARDEN ON THE CITY'S PUBLIC WORKS BUILDING. THIRD, WE WORKED WITH THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS TO HOST AN EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOP ON SOLAR GARDENS FOR NEIGHBORHOOD LEADERS FROM ACROSS THE CITY. * GROW SOLAR. SOLAR ENERGY IS THE FASTEST GROWING FORM OF CLEAN ENERGY IN THE COUNTRY. SO GPI EXPANDED ITS CLEAN ENERGY PROGRAM CAPACITY WITH THE ADDITION OF NEW STAFF AND A NEW PROGRAM, THE GROW SOLAR PARTNERSHIP THAT FOCUSES ON REDUCING BARRIERS TO SOLAR ENERGY DEVELOPMENT AT THE LOCAL AND REGIONAL LEVEL. GPI'S MARKET TRANSFORMATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM COVERS FOUR STATES AND IS WORKING WITH OVER TWO DOZEN "BETA" COMMUNITIES TO PREPARE FOR AND ENCOURAGE SOLAR ENERGY DEVELOPMENT ON ROOFTOPS AND SOLAR GARDENS. GPI DEVELOPED LOCAL GOVERNMENT SOLAR TOOLKITS FOR PLANNING, ZONING, AND PERMITTING BEST PRACTICES IN MINNESOTA, WISCONSIN, ILLINOIS, AND IOWA. SUPPLEMENTING THE TOOLKITS, GPI PROVIDES DIRECT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND TRAINING TO CITIES AND COUNTIES TO BECOME "SOLAR READY" FOR DEVELOPMENT. CITIES ARE INCORPORATING SOLAR-READY BEST PRACTICES INTO COMPREHENSIVE PLANS, DEVELOPING SOLAR RESOURCE MAPS AND QUANTIFYING LOCAL SOLAR ENERGY RESERVES, STANDARDIZING DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS AND PERMITTING PROCESSES TO ENABLE BOTH ROOFTOP AND SOLAR FARM/ GARDEN DEVELOPMENT, AND ADAPTING LOCAL FINANCING AND EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS TO ENCOURAGE SUSTAINABLE USE OF THE SOLAR RESOURCE. PARTICIPATING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS INCLUDE MINNEAPOLIS, SAINT PAUL, ROCHESTER, AND DULUTH IN MINNESOTA, DES MOINES AND CEDAR RAPIDS IN IOWA, LAKE COUNTY AND URBANA IN ILLINOIS, AND CITIES ACROSS WISCONSIN FROM ASHLAND TO LACROSSE.IMPROVING LOCAL PLANNING PRACTICES TO SUPPORT CLEAN ENERGY DEPLOYMENTLOCAL PLANNING PRACTICE.

IN RESPONSE, GPI HAS STARTED A LOCAL PLANNING PRACTICE AREA TO HELP CITIES INCORPORATES ENERGY PLANNING, CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION PLANNING, AND CLIMATE ADAPTATION AND RESILIENCE INTO THEIR PORTFOLIO OF PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION TOOLS. EARLY WORK IN THIS PRACTICE AREA INCLUDED HELPING DEVELOP THE MET COUNCIL'S LOCAL PLANNING HANDBOOK THAT WILL GUIDE 180 NEW COMPREHENSIVE PLANS IN THE METROPOLITAN AREA. GPI IS ALSO PROVIDING DIRECT ASSISTANCE TO SEVERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENTS THAT ARE UPDATING COMPREHENSIVE PLANS AND ZONING ORDINANCES, FROM THE NORTH SHORE COMMUNITY OF SILVER BAY TO THE CITY OF AUSTIN IN SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA. GPI DEVELOPED ONE OF MINNESOTA'S FIRST LOCAL RESILIENCY PLANS IN FALCON HEIGHTS AND IS COMPLETING A RENEWABLE ENERGY ASSESSMENT AND GHG REDUCTION PLAN IN SHOREWOOD.

	BIOENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMERCIALIZING NEXT GENERATION FUELS AND CHEMICALS:THE BIOECONOMY COALITION OF MINNESOTA, CONVENED BY GREAT PLAINS INSTITUTE, HAS WORKED FOR THREE YEARS TO ACHIEVE ITS SIGNATURE PRIORITY: A PRODUCTION-BASED INCENTIVE FOR ADVANCED BIOFUEL, BIOBASED-CHEMICAL, AND BIOMASS THERMAL ENERGY PRODUCTION. THE COALITION SUCCEEDED IN 2015, WHEN THE MINNESOTA STATE LEGISLATURE PASSED THE BIOECONOMY PRODUCTION INCENTIVE. THIS POLICY IS ALREADY ACHIEVING RESULTS WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF A NEW $70 MILLION BIOBASED CHEMICAL FACILITY FROM SWEETWATER ENERGY IN MOUNTAIN IRON, MN. ADVANCED BIOFUELS CAN OFFER DEEP GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTIONS RELATIVE TO PETROLEUM, AND USE INNOVATIVE FEEDSTOCKS SUCH AS WOOD RESIDUES, AND PERENNIAL GRASSES. BIOBASED CHEMICALS ARE HIGHER VALUE, DISPLACE CHEMICALS MADE FROM PETROLEUM, AND OFTEN DISPLACE CHEMICALS OF HUMAN HEALTH CONCERN. THESE TECHNOLOGIES CAN HELP TURN WASTE FROM CITIES INTO HIGHER VALUE MATERIALS -TRANSFORMING A DISPOSAL PROBLEM INTO A RESOURCE. PUTTING THE BIOECONOMY PRODUCTION INCENTIVE INTO LAW NOW MAKES MINNESOTA THE BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD TO GROW THESE INDUSTRIES, AND WE'RE JUST GETTING STARTED.ELECTRIFYING TRANSPORTATION:DRIVE ELECTRIC MINNESOTA (DEMN) IS THE STATE'S ELECTRIC VEHICLE (EV) PARTNERSHIP, INITIALLY FOUNDED BY XCEL ENERGY AND THE MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY. IT HAS BEEN WORKING TO ELECTRIFY MINNESOTA'S TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM SINCE 2008. A DEMN SELECTION COMMITTEE CHOSE GPI TO TAKE OVER THE FACILITATION OF THIS PARTNERSHIP, WHICH INCLUDES ELECTRIC UTILITIES, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT, CORPORATIONS, AUTOMAKERS, AUTO DEALERS, AND ENVIRONMENTAL NGOS. DEMN SPEARHEADED MUCH OF MINNESOTA'S CURRENT PUBLIC EV CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE. GPI WORKS WITH DEMN'S MEMBERS TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TAKE THE WORK TO THE NEXT LEVEL. WE ARE WORKING WITH UTILITIES AND AUTO DEALERS TO FIGURE OUT WAYS TO MAKE IT EASIER TO SELL EVS. WE ALSO LED A TEAM THAT ORGANIZED MINNESOTA'S LARGEST DRIVE ELECTRIC WEEK EVENT TO DATE AND WE ARE WORKING TO PASS POLICIES AT THE STATE CAPITOL THAT WILL HELP INCREASE EV SALES. EVS OFFER DEEP GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION REDUCTIONS AND COST SAVINGS FOR CONSUMERS. MORE IMPORTANTLY TO SOME - THEY ARE FUN TO DRIVE.IMPROVING THE "GREET" MODEL:THROUGH A CONTRACT WITH ARGONNE NATIONAL LAB, GPI WORKS TO MAKE THE "GREET" MODEL A MORE ROBUST AND USER-FRIENDLY TOOL. "GREET" STANDS FOR "GREENHOUSE GASES, REGULATED EMISSIONS, AND ENERGY USE IN TRANSPORTATION MODEL, AND IS THE WORLD'S PREMIER TOOL FOR CALCULATING LIFECYCLE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION FUELS. THROUGH ON-SITE VISITS AT ARGONNE NATIONAL LABORATORY AND ONLINE WORK EXCHANGES AT GPI'S MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE, GPI HAS CONTRIBUTED SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW SOFTWARE PLATFORM FOR GREET THAT HAS MODERNIZED THE MODEL INTO AN EASY TO USE POINT-AND-CLICK INTERFACE. FOR THE NEW PLATFORM, GPI HAS DEVELOPED NEW COMPONENTS OF THE MODEL TO CALCULATE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS FROM LAND USE CHANGE AND OTHER SOURCES AND IS CURRENTLY WORKING TO CREATE MORE NEW COMPONENTS FOR OTHER APPLICATIONS. FINALLY, GPI HAS PRODUCED A NUMBER OF ONLINE TUTORIAL VIDEOS FOR OFFICIAL USE BY ARGONNE.
