NSERB accepts EfficiencyOne–NS Power amended CEM agreement, finding no formal approval required as existing reporting obligations remain unchanged

M12030 · EfficiencyOne (EOne) for approval of a Supply Agreement – Behavioral Program Update
AI summary
  • The Board accepted Efficiency One's December 19, 2024 update as filed, concluding that the revised agreement between EOne and Nova Scotia Power does not alter previously directed Performance Monitoring reporting requirements and therefore requires no formal Board approval (Decision Letter, March 12, 2025).
  • Under the amended agreement, EOne assumes responsibility for two new Bidgely CEM platform functions — the "Recommendations Tab" and "Efficiency Insights Tab" — but will report no associated energy savings due to data-tracking limitations, while NS Power retains EM&V responsibility for nine other CEM functionalities including web portal usage, alerts, and billing tools.
  • The Board noted the revised arrangement directly addresses concerns about savings duplication flagged in EOne's April 8, 2024 update (Matter M11647), with shared EM&V costs allocated according to Figure 1 of EOne's December 19, 2024 report.
  • The agreement remains subject to review in future proceedings involving either party, preserving regulatory oversight over the Demand Side Management collaboration.
