AI summary The document discusses the Demand Response (DR) program, focusing on Residential Demand Response and BNI Demand Response components. It outlines the distinction between new and total available DR capacity and explains how available DR capacity differs from peak demand savings, emphasizing that EOne does not control the use of resources to reduce peak demand.

tor audited the final 2023 tracking sheet to ensure it was complete and the entered data were consistent. The results obtained are presented in Appendix I. Water Heater Controller Meter Data Analysis One of the main objectives of the 2023...

AI summary The document discusses the evaluation of demand response (DR) capacity for water heater controllers in 2023, including an update to the baseline methodology and the analysis of data from DHW Direct Load Control participants. The Evaluator used an in-house tool and updated the unitary available DR capacity for Shifted controllers, as Aquanta controllers are no longer being installed.

sults Building on all the above methods and collected data, the Evaluator calculated the new and total amount of available DR capacity as per the calculation methodology presented in Section 3 below. Note on Margins of Error For evaluation...

AI summary The Evaluator calculated the new and total available demand response (DR) capacity using a defined methodology. A 10% margin of error at a 90% confidence level was aimed for, acknowledging that this reflects precision rather than accuracy. Margins of error for unitary available DR capacity and in-service rates are included in the evaluation, with calculation examples provided in Appendix II of the 2023 DSM Programs Evaluation Executive Summary.

In-service Rate 81% 82% Margin of Error 4% 2% 3.2.2 Unitary Available DR Capacity For the DHW Direct Load Control pathway, EOne and the Evaluator rely on a unitary available DR capacity value, more precisely the average available DR capaci...

AI summary The document discusses the unitary available DR capacity for the DHW Direct Load Control pathway, focusing on updating baseline methodology and improving accuracy of estimates using 2022 and 2023 controller meter data. It also references the 2020-2022 Measure Assessment and mentions the Residential Demand Response Final Report.
