Request IR-2: - The original forecast for first-year energy savings in the 2024 plan for the Existing Residential Programs was set at 58.8 GWh with an associated investment of $22.5 million. Mid-course adjustments reduced the energy saving...

AI summary The Existing Residential Programs' energy savings forecast decreased from 58.8 GWh to 43.2 GWh between 2024 plan stages, while costs increased from $22.5 million to $22.7 million. Unit costs per kWh of savings rose from $0.38 to $0.53. The request seeks explanations for the cost increase despite lower savings and factors driving the rising unit cost, linking these to program efficiency.

Request IR-4: - The Residential Behaviour Program was initially forecast to achieve 29.8 GWh in savings at a cost of $2.2 million, but this was revised mid-year to 8 GWh at $2.7 million, and the year-end projection now shows 4.4 GWh at $2....

AI summary The Residential Behaviour Program's energy savings dropped from 29.8 GWh to 4.4 GWh, with costs rising from $2.2 million to $2.5 million. The request seeks explanations for the reduced savings, increased cost per GWh, and how participant engagement impacts program effectiveness.
