Joint Agency Workshop on the Governor’s Energy Efficiency Goals
CEC IEPR Workshop on 2030 Efficiency Goals
Panel TopicCodes and Existing Buildings
Monday July 6, 2015
Cynthia Mitchell, TURN consultant
• How well are the CEC’s and CPUC’s economic methodologies for cost effectiveness working for us?
• Should we modify or replace these methods to better align with the scale and pace needed to reach California’s climate goals?
• Whose capital should be used to achieve these goals – utility ratepayers, building owners, utility treasuries, government, and private capital?

“To Do List”
1. Refine and improve current EE – consumer investment driven construct.
2. Realize CA’s full economic EE potential via long-term capital market investments.
“Kilowatthours are now flowing two ways,
as should EE revenue opportunities.”
TURN, R.14-10-003, iDSM, May 29, 2015
New Transaction Structures (1) • G,T,D; and solar, storage, DG finance their
investments based on future cash flows from selling energy, or project finance.
• Finance EE like an energy infrastructure investment.
• Project finance for a power plant is based on the long term cash flows from selling power.
• Meter EE and pay for savings as they are delivered; turn EE into a cash flow, which can then be financed.
New Transaction Structures (2)
• Authorize iDSM pilots to test EE, bundled with DR and other DERs (“bundled Efficiency”).
• Bundled Efficiency is site-specific, persistent, correlates well to circuit and substation loads, and is measurable at the meter.
• Achieve significant site-specific load and consumption reductions – 25 - 40%.
• Commoditize the benefit streams to meet system needs. • Use dynamic baselines (counterfactual algorithms) and
smart meter data to create transparent and real time accounting for savings.
Chicken Picture
Economic Methodologies for Cost Effectiveness
• Benefits and Costs as a ratio: B/C, with 1.0 or greater positive benefits.
• Costs: utility / ratepayers + participant.
• Benefit: net present value of avoided costs of the supply-side resources (G,T,D) avoided or deferred.
• Avoided costs: energy, ancillary services, emissions (GHG), capacity, T&D (area & time-specific), xxx RPS, and losses. – On peak multiplier and T&D deferral values.
End Notes
End Notes
• Market or Business as Usual: Encourage and promote customer EE investments.
• Consumers willing and able to make EE capital investments based on 10 - 20+ year paybacks.
• McKinsey 2009: Consumers very short payback requirements. Residential 2-3 yr; Commercial 3.6 yr; Industrial 18 mo – 3 yr.
• Largely “mass market”, statistical function integrated across thousands of discrete and dispersed efficiency measures. Estimation of savings.
• Economic: Supply side avoided cost analysis 20+ years. Large capital markets with returns on investments matched to energy value provided via G,T,D infrastructure investments over time.
• Efficiency bundled with DR, ES, solar, DG as DER. Location and site specific, significant load and energy reductions / management. Metered load reductions.
End Notes
Market-based-BAU EE Portfolios
• Largely “low hanging fruit” savings – CFLs and T8s• One-third savings from C&S assuming high compliance rates • Utility savings claims adjusted downward by about 50% through the
CPUC’s measurement and verification process. • “Paper” cost-effectiveness marginal at best. • Efficiency savings that are over time less than incremental load growth • Rube Goldberg construct: 200+ programs
End NotesModifications to make C/E analysis for EE, DR, ES, solar, and DG, more comparable and transparent.
“Play Nice Together” Test: EE, DR, ES, solar, and DG effects be integrated into the CEC demand forecast to effect procurement.
Counting / accounting effects: consider interactions, integration; format for tracking & reporting that is logical, traceable, transparent; consistent (where sensible); aggregate cumulative effect.
