AI summary The document discusses ENS's 2017 evaluation reports on emissions from its DSM work and suggests that ENS and the Advisory Group should consider discussing DSM and climate adaptation with the province and climate adaptation advocates. ENS notes that addressing climate adaptation is beyond the scope of the current Supply Agreement with EfficiencyOne.

DSM and climate adaptation with the appropriate authorities.

AI summary The text mentions DSM (Demand Side Management) and climate adaptation, indicating a potential discussion on integrating energy efficiency initiatives with broader climate strategies. However, the content is incomplete and lacks specific details or arguments.

AI summary The text discusses the potential intersection of Demand Side Management (DSM) with climate adaptation, particularly in new construction and major renovation projects like Net Zero and Passivhaus. ENS acknowledges the recommendation but notes that addressing climate adaptation is beyond the scope of the UARB-approved Supply Agreement with EfficiencyOne.

M and climate adaptation with the appropriate authorities.

AI summary The text briefly references 'M and climate adaptation' with the appropriate authorities, indicating a potential discussion on climate adaptation strategies and related regulatory actions.

AI summary The text discusses cost allocation strategies for new product development, emphasizing the need to separate R&D costs from product-specific budgets to enable viability. It also evaluates DSM programs' dual role in climate mitigation and adaptation, highlighting Passive House energy efficiency as a climate defense measure with long-term savings potential.

ange aspects of DSM has two parts. First, evaluation of the role of program components in climate mitigation. Second, evaluation of the role of program components in climate adaptation and resiliency. For 2017, the Econoler evaluation deve...

AI summary The text discusses evaluating Demand Side Management (DSM) programs for climate mitigation and adaptation. The Econoler 2017 evaluation quantifies greenhouse gas emission reductions from DSM components, acknowledging mitigation as a situational value stream rather than the primary focus, which remains first-year energy and demand reductions.

onoler evaluation fully computes this value stream by documenting emissions that are offset by the programs. For this reason, the mitigation analysis in the Econoler 2017 is useful and fully adequate. The Econoler evaluation does not analy...

AI summary The Econoler 2017 evaluation effectively assesses DSM program emissions offsets but excludes climate adaptation, which operates on intergenerational time scales. While DSM focuses on short-term measures, climate adaptation aligns with disaster preparedness and infrastructure resilience. Most DSM measures avoid long-term 'lock-in' issues except for new construction or extensive retrofits.

rement.19 The Econoler evaluation is an independent evaluation that meets this standard. 18 A useful insight from using a climate adaptation perspective is that it highlights the risk in adoption of “low-hanging fruit” type program strateg...

AI summary The text discusses the Econoler evaluation's role in meeting evaluation standards, highlights risks of short-term 'low-hanging fruit' energy efficiency strategies under climate adaptation, and distinguishes between Automated M&V and Automated Evaluation. It references Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory's research on automating M&V for whole-building approaches.

AI summary ENS and the Advisory Group are advised to consider discussing DSM and climate adaptation with the province and climate adaptation advocates, particularly in new construction. ENS notes that addressing climate adaptation is beyond the scope of the current Supply Agreement with EfficiencyOne and would act upon direction from the UARB.

DSM and climate adaptation with the appropriate authorities.

AI summary The text briefly mentions DSM (Demand Side Management) and climate adaptation, indicating a potential connection between energy efficiency programs and broader climate strategies. However, the content is minimal and lacks detailed discussion or context.
