has multiple non-linear components, the effects of varying a parameter is often asymmetrical. For each sensitivity, all other variables were held constant, allowing individual effects to be observed. Residential achievable potential sensit...
AI summary The text discusses the sensitivity analysis of residential achievable potential to various parameters, highlighting the impact of net-to-gross ratio, marketing effects, and incentive changes. It explains how these factors influence customer awareness, adoption of efficient measures, and the inclusion of measures in achievable potential based on the TRC screening threshold.
manifests in greater sensitivity than other model inputs, however, any reductions in net-to-gross ratio (as a result of an increase in freeridership) would be captured in the non-programmatic savings. By contrast, the avoided costs and dis...
AI summary The text discusses the sensitivity of achievable energy efficiency potential to various factors, including net-to-gross ratios, avoided costs, discount rates, and carbon prices. It highlights that changes in net-to-gross ratios and carbon prices have a greater impact than changes in avoided costs or discount rates. Incremental costs also play a significant role in determining market shares and TRC screening outcomes.
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.
