AI summary
- Efficiencyone filed a letter dated July 27, 2026 responding to the Nova Scotia Energy Board's request of July 24, 2026 regarding the composition of E1's witness panels in Matter M12780
- E1 agreed to proceed with a single, reduced witness panel of six individuals rather than its original multi-panel approach, citing the Board's preference for a more practical and efficient format
- The proposed single panel includes four EfficiencyOne staff members (Gina Thompson, Kate McDonald, Errol Pereira, Robert Burns, Darryl MacKenzie) and one expert witness, Michael Goldman of Apex Analytics, who E1 will seek to have qualified as an expert
- E1 noted that the consolidated panel format would help accommodate scheduling constraints, including NS Power's expert from The Brattle Group (Ms. Sergici) being available only August 4–6, and the Consumer Advocate's witness (Mr. Love) being unavailable the afternoon of August 5
- E1 maintained that the single panel can address both strategic/policy and technical aspects of the Application in an integrated manner, reducing the likelihood of deferred or repeated questions during cross-examination
