| Explanation | THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD ON ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES ADDRESSES THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER TAX BENEFITS CLAIMED OR EXPECTED TO BE CLAIMED ON A TAX RETURN SHOULD BE RECORDED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. UNDER THAT GUIDANCE, THE ORGANIZATION MAY RECOGNIZE THE TAX BENEFIT FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION ONLY IF IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT THE TAX POSITION WILL BE SUSTAINED ON EXAMINATION BY TAXING AUTHORITIES BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. EXAMPLES OF TAX POSITIONS INCLUDE THE TAX EXEMPT STATUS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND VARIOUS POSITIONS RELATED TO THE POTENTIAL SOURCES OF UNRELATED BUSINESS TAXABLE INCOME (UBIT). THE TAX BENEFITS RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FROM SUCH A POSITION ARE MEASURED BASED ON THE LARGEST BENEFIT THAT HAS A GREATER THAN 50 PERCENT LIKELIHOOD OF BEING REALIZED UPON ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT. THERE WERE NO UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS IDENTIFIED OR RECORDED AS LIABILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2019 AND 2018. | ExplanationTxt |

EDITORIALLY INDEPENDENT FROM FRESH ENERGY'S POLICY WORK, THE ENERGY NEWS NETWORK IS STAFFED BY PROFESSIONAL EDITORS AND A TEAM OF MORE THAN A DOZEN JOURNALISTS WHO COVER STATE-BASED STORIES IN A REGIONAL CONTEXT. OUR ENERGY NEWS LINKS AND ORIGINAL REPORTING ARE PUBLISHED THROUGH FIVE DIGESTS: U.S. ENERGY NEWS, MIDWEST ENERGY NEWS, SOUTHEAST ENERGY NEWS, NORTHEAST ENERGY NEWS, AND WESTERN ENERGY NEWS. THE MORE THAN 30 ORIGINAL NEWS STORIES PRODUCED BY ENERGY NEWS NETWORK REPORTERS EACH MONTH SHINE A LIGHT ON STORIES THAT WOULD OTHERWISE GO UNREPORTED, AND OUR JOURNALISM IS REGULARLY REPUBLISHED OR QUOTED IN TRADE PUBLICATIONS, TRADITIONAL MEDIA OUTLETS, AND IN OTHER ARENAS. THE ENERGY NEWS NETWORK IS A MEMBER OF THE INSTITUTE FOR NONPROFIT NEWS AND OUR NATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE OF JOURNALISM AND MEDIA EXPERTS PROVIDES KEY GUIDANCE. |
| PART III, LINE 4B | ENERGY MARKETS: RENEWABLES: THROUGH EXPERT ENGAGEMENT AT THE MINNESOTA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION, WORK AT THE STATE LEGISLATURE, AND LEADERSHIP AS CONTENT EXPERTS IN COLLABORATIONS AROUND CLEAN ENERGY, FRESH ENERGY WORKS TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF WIND, SOLAR, AND STORAGE IN MINNESOTA'S ENERGY SYSTEM. OUR REGULATORY TEAM PROVIDES DATA-DRIVEN ADVOCACY THAT IS LEADING UTILITIES TO INVEST IN RENEWABLES AS A GROWING PORTION OF THEIR GENERATION MIX AND INSPIRING BOLD COMMITMENTS FROM XCEL ENERGY AND OTHERS. WE ALSO SHAPE ELECTRICITY RATE DESIGNS AND RENEWABLE ENERGY PRICING AND WE WORK TO ENSURE THAT CUSTOMER-DRIVEN OPTIONS ALLOW MINNESOTA RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES TO REAP THE BENEFITS OF CLEAN ENERGY. AS A RESULT OF OUR WORK, MINNESOTA'S CLEAN ENERGY ECONOMY IS BOOMING AND RENEWABLES ARE NOW WIDELY RECOGNIZED AS THE LEAST-COST STRATEGY FOR GENERATING ELECTRICITY. GRID: A LARGE-SCALE ENERGY TRANSITION WILL REQUIRE A STRONG, MODERN ELECTRIC GRID, AND FRESH ENERGY IS WORKING TO SECURE A MAJOR TRANSMISSION GRID THAT WILL SPUR AND SUPPORT INCREASED RENEWABLES ACROSS THE REGION, AND A DISTRIBUTION GRID THAT SUPPORTS USE OF ROOFTOP SOLAR AND OTHER CLEAN ENERGY PROJECTS IN OUR COMMUNITIES. CLEAN TRANSPORTATION AND BENEFICIAL ELECTRIFICATION: ANALYSIS MAKES IT CLEAR: TO ACHIEVE THE DRAMATIC REDUCTIONS IN EMISSIONS NEEDED AT THIS TIME, WE MUST NOT ONLY DECARBONIZE ELECTRICITY GENERATION, WE MUST TRANSITION OTHER CARBON-INTENSIVE PARTS OF OUR ECONOMY SUCH AS TRANSPORTATION AND HOME HEATING TO RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY. FRESH ENERGY'S ELECTRIC TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM IS MAKING GREAT STRIDES IN THIS AREA, WORKING TO ENSURE THAT ELECTRIC UTILITIES CAN AND ARE PLANNING FOR AND PROMOTING INCREASED USE OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN A WAY THAT IS BENEFICIAL FOR THE ELECTRIC GRID, SUPPORTS INCREASED RENEWABLES, AND PROVIDES BENEFITS TO ALL UTILITY CUSTOMERS. WE ARE MAKING A DATA-DRIVEN CASE FOR THE HEALTH AND COST BENEFITS OF REPLACING GAS AND DIESEL-POWERED FLEET CARS AND BUSES WITH NEW ELECTRIC ALTERNATIVES AND MULTIPLE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE NOW EMBRACING ELECTRIC TRANSPORTATION. FRESH ENERGY IS ALSO WORKING TO REDUCE RELIANCE ON PROPANE AND OTHER DELIVERED FUELS FOR HOME HEATING, AND LEADING THE STATE TO ENVISION A FUTURE WHERE WE CAN AFFORDABLY HEAT HOMES AND OTHER BUILDINGS WITH RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY INSTEAD OF NATURAL GAS. |
| PART III, LINE 4C | ENERGY PERFORMANCE: ENERGY EFFICIENCY: FRESH ENERGY IS WORKING TO INCREASE ENERGY SAVINGS ACROSS THE STATE, EVEN AS NEW PARTS OF THE ECONOMY ARE ELECTRIFIED AND THE SECTOR MOVES BEYOND FIRST-STEP SOLUTIONS, SUCH AS CHANGING LIGHT BULBS.

WE ALSO PROMOTE UTILITY BUSINESS MODELS THAT ENCOURAGE EFFICIENCY. BETTER BUILDINGS: BUILDINGS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MORE THAN 40 PERCENT OF MINNESOTA'S ENERGY USE THUS INCREASING THE EFFICIENCY OF OUR BUILT ENVIRONMENT IS A TOP PRIORITY. FRESH ENERGY IS WORKING TO ENSURE THAT MINNESOTA'S BUILDING ENERGY CODE IS STRONG AND EFFECTIVELY ADOPTED AND ENFORCED. WE WORK TO TRANSFORM THE MARKET FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS BY SUPPORTING SUPER-EFFICIENT MODEL PROJECTS IN NEW DEVELOPMENTS, SUCH AS SAINT PAUL'S FORD SITE, AND BY PROVIDING EDUCATION ON EFFICIENCY AS A KEY ELEMENT IN MAKING HOUSING DECISIONS. OUR EXPERTS ALSO SHAPE AND DRIVE POLICY THAT SUPPORT LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN USING BUILDING EFFICIENCY AS A TOOL IN CLIMATE ACTION PLANS, AND WE ENCOURAGE BUILDING OWNERS AND MANAGERS TO TRACK ENERGY USE AS A WAY OF SURFACING SAVINGS OPPORTUNITIES.
