Engineering Analysis: Navigant used appropriate engineering algorithms to calculate energy savings for any measures not included in ENS programs or available TRMs. 3.3.2 Incremental Costs Navigant relied primarily on EfficiencyOne-provided...

AI summary Navigant used engineering algorithms and data from EfficiencyOne and TRMs to calculate energy savings. They relied on the 2019 Nova Scotia Baseline Study for building stock and density data and incorporated future code and standards adjustments based on Canada’s Forward Regulatory Plan 2019-2021.

12.1 Energy Efficiency • Near-term Electricity Savings: The majority of near-term savings are from the Res HVAC, Res Lighting, and BNI Lighting end uses. Residential screw-in LED Bulb ranks as the highest electricity- saving market potenti...

AI summary The text discusses energy efficiency initiatives in Nova Scotia, focusing on near-term electricity and winter peak demand savings from residential and BNI lighting and HVAC measures. It highlights the success of EfficiencyOne's programs, challenges due to market saturation and tightening codes, and the potential of HVAC fuel switching to remove end-use loads from homes.

AI summary The text discusses the assumptions used in the 2020 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) update, including base load forecasts and demand-side management (DSM) scenarios. It outlines the factors influencing the base load forecast, such as economic projections and EV penetration, and explains how DSM scenarios are applied to the 'no new DSM' forecast for load planning.

AI summary The document outlines the assumptions used in the 2020 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) Final Assumptions Set, including economic forecasts, EV penetration, and demand-side management (DSM) scenarios. It details how DSM scenarios are subtracted from a 'no new DSM' forecast and includes various factors such as efficiency initiatives, consumer behavior, and technological developments.

AI summary The document discusses demand-side management (DSM) scenarios in the context of the 2020 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) by Nova Scotia Power. It outlines assumptions for EV penetration, load scenarios, and environmental considerations based on existing policies and legislation, including regulations on carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired generation.

1 To maintain the fidelity of the DSM Potential Study, EfficiencyOne strongly recommends NS 2 Power consider the above approach. 3 4 On slide 11, NS Power also indicates that the DSM Potential Study cases are assumed to include: 5 • Cost-e...

AI summary EfficiencyOne recommends that NS Power adjust the DSM Potential Study to ensure accuracy, clarifying that it only includes programmatic DSM impacts. Factors like consumer behavior, technology, and energy codes are excluded via net energy savings and sub-models, while other agencies' involvement in DSM is deemed immaterial in Nova Scotia.
