The insulation doesn't care which side heating or cooling is taking
place. That is a non issue.
Double temperature differential is key factor. It changes the break-
even point.

Alaska the cooling is taking place externally and naturally. The
important bits are still the same. Reduce air infiltration through
the insulation (compressed PC may be key here) and other building
materials, reduce thermal breaks (re-engineer doors, windows and
framing), reduce air infiltration through and around openings. Use
thermal mass to moderate temperature swings.
