AI summary
- Sixteen undertakings (U-1 through U-16) were issued between August 4–6, 2026, with responses due August 21 or August 28, 2026, arising from oral hearing proceedings in M12780.
- Several undertakings target Efficiencyone's cost-effectiveness methodology, including requests to recalculate PAC scores incorporating program administration costs at the measure level (U-8, U-10) and to confirm Net to Gross Ratio results in Exhibit E-3, Table 5 (U-7).
- Equity and Low Income program access is a focus of U-1 (pre-weatherization barriers preventing customer participation), U-2 (incentive levels for non-profits in the Affordable Multifamily Housing And Non Profit Organizations Amf program), U-3 (landlord-specific program cost estimate), and U-5 (strategic electrification impacts on low-income customers).
- The Industrial Group obtained U-4, requiring a Rate and Bill Impact Analysis using a 100% direct cost allocation — replacing the 75/25 split — reflecting the new NS Power Cost of Service Study, with Green Energy Economics directed via U-15 to update its rate impact tables once U-4 is filed.
- Green Energy Economics faces three additional undertakings (U-12 through U-14) to reconcile evidence in Exhibits 59–61 with testimony, revise investment comparison tables if needed, and confirm comparator utilities used in the Apex Study.
