17 MHEEP Evaluation Approach The 2023 MHEEP evaluation comprised a condensed impact evaluation. The main objectives of the 2023 MHEEP evaluation were as follows: › Calculate gross and net MHEEP results, namely electrical first-year and lif...
AI summary The 2023 MHEEP evaluation focused on calculating gross and net results, including energy savings, peak demand savings, and avoided GHG emissions. The evaluation objectives are mapped to research questions and methods in Table 57.
18.3.1 Evaluated Net Savings Net savings are defined as the energy savings specifically attributable to MHEEP. Since spillover and freeridership effects were considered nil, the net MHEEP impacts are equal to the gross savings generated by...
AI summary The MHEEP achieved 0.577 GWh and 0.373 MW in net energy and peak demand savings, respectively. It fell short of its energy savings target by 5% but exceeded its peak demand savings target by 24%. GHG emission reductions are equal to the gross annual reductions due to no spillover or freeridership effects.

AI summary The text compares tracked and evaluated gross savings for energy and peak demand, noting a 3% and 1% difference respectively due to adjustments in lighting and HVAC measures. GHG emissions reductions were calculated using Nova Scotia-specific factors derived from Nova Scotia Power's 2022 data.
