AI summary The document discusses scenario analysis for demand response (DR) and energy efficiency programs in Nova Scotia from 2021 to 2045. It outlines how different participation levels and assumptions affect DR achievable potential, program costs, and cost-effectiveness under low, base, and high scenarios.
Report Synapse IR-30 Attachment 1 Page 63 of 355 Nova Scotia Energy Efficiency and Demand Response Potential Study for 2021-2045 6.5 Energy Efficiency Incentive Strategy Per EfficiencyOne’s guidance, and as discussed with the DSM Advisory...
AI summary The study outlines an energy efficiency incentive strategy based on targeted payback and assumes 85% re-participation by program participants after the useful life of energy-efficient measures. This approach ensures that incentive costs are applied only during initial conversions and not for replacements of already efficient equipment, impacting cumulative savings calculations.
ason is that the lower cost measures (such as lighting), which already tend to have short payback times, receive lower incentives relative to incremental cost than in the levelized cost threshold approach, thereby permitting greater spendi...
AI summary The text discusses different incentive approaches for energy efficiency measures, such as the percent of incremental cost approach and the targeted payback approach, and explains their impacts on portfolio comprehensiveness and total savings. It also outlines the process for developing and running an achievable potential model to estimate energy savings and demand reduction over time.
• Fourth, we draw on the internal stakeholders to provide valuable insights and perspectives on the results. In the program development process, we will solicit input to help guide and shape the set of programs to be considered in the DR p...
AI summary The text discusses the development of demand response (DR) programs, including administrative costs, incentive structures, and the use of enabling equipment. It outlines the process for calculating program costs, levelized costs, and the collaboration with E1 and Navigant for cost analysis and assumptions.
