Public Notice of Proposed Tariff Amendments: Change in Customer, Demand, and Energy Charges

Posted: August 7, 2026

The Board of Directors of Alaska Village Electric Cooperative, Inc. is considering tariff
adjustments which include changes in Customer, Energy and Demand Charges for each of its
service areas.

Due to the increase in operating costs related to materials, labor, transportation and freight,
these proposed adjustments in non-fuel rates are designed to meet revenue requirements,
provide a positive operating margin and meet the debt covenants AVEC has with our primary
lender, the National Rural Utilizes Cooperative Finance Corporation. These proposed
adjustments are made across all rate classes and service areas to provide rates in closer
alignment to costs. If approved by the AVERC board the proposed rate changes would apply to electric service used on or after November 1, 2026. The specific proposed rate changes for
Bethel, Yakutat, and All Other locations are attached to this notice.

The All Other locations include Alakanuk, Amber, Andreafsky, Anvik, Brevig Mission, Chevak,
Eek, Ekwok, Elim, Emmonak, Gambell, Goodnews Bay, Grayling, Holy Cross, Hooper Bay,
Huslia, Kalskag Lower/Upper, Kaltag, Kasigluk, Kiana, Kivalina, Kobuk, Kotlik, Koyuk, Marshall,
Mekoryuk, Minto, Mountain Village, New Stuyahok, Nightmute, Noatak, Noorvik, Nulato,
Nunapitchuk, Old Harbor, Pilot Station, Pitka’s Point, Quinhagak, Russian Mission, Savoonga,
Scammon Bay, Selawik, Shageluk, Shaktoolik, Shishmaref, Shungnak, St Mary’s, St Michael,
Stebbins, Teller, Togiak, Toksook, Tununak, Twin Hills, and Wales.

There will be a Public Hearing on September 9, 2026 at 10:00 a.m., held telephonically. The
purpose of the Public Hearing is for (1) management to explain the rate changes and why they are needed and (2) for members to ask questions and make statements regarding the
proposed rate changes. The Board of Directors will consider the information from the Public
Hearing in deciding whether to approve, disapprove or modify the proposed rate changes.
