Why a Bandage Fix for Cost-Effectiveness Testing Isn't Enough ([link removed] )

Rip Off Band-Aid ([link removed] )

Driven by advancing technologies and by policies that are evolving to both mitigate and adapt to climate change, the energy industry is changing at a breakneck pace. On the demand side, our fundamental challenge is moving beyond siloed programs into scaled demand flexibility to achieve states’ priorities such as grid resilience, resource adequacy, and decarbonization, amidst increasing electrification. Critically, scaling distributed energy resources (DERs) to meet a host of policy goals will require that we leverage limited ratepayer dollars to cultivate as much energy efficiency (EE) and other DER investment as possible. The question is: are cost-effectiveness (CE) testing practices developed decades ago adequate to guide our industry investments today? In our experience, legacy CE practices are inhibiting both innovative program designs and commonsense best practices for putting ratepayer dollars to optimal use.

3 Market Reports ([link removed] )

We have updated our two-page Wholesale Market Brief on PJM’s Minimum Offer Price Rule following FERC’s December 2019 Order, succinctly explaining how an expanded MOPR will price out of PJM’s capacity market advanced energy resources – including new wind and solar developments, energy storage, energy efficiency, and demand response services – that states have policies to support. For more information on the MOPR Order and its effects on states, consumers, and advanced energy, see our blog post ([link removed] ) and recent webinar ([link removed] ) on the subject.
