I.E.P. Tries Again

The Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority will select a partner for the Interior Energy Project by the end of the year. AIDEA chose finalists earlier this month following a request for proposed plans to supply Fairbanks with natural gas.  An earlier public private partnership yielded a North Slope gas plan that proved to be too expensive. As KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, a review committee will consider the latest proposals and how state financing can be used to leverage a project.
