11 M&V Threshold Change Project incentive $80,000 $40,000 Today Enhanced M&V After June 20 Lighting Non-Lighting Enhanced M&V IPMVP Option B IPMVP Option A Enhanced M&V IPMVP Option A/B/C/D $25,000 Basic M&V Basic M&V Basic M&V $10,000 $0 M&V not required 11

12 Demand Savings New Definition Old Definition Demand Savings (kw) = maximum reduction in electricity demand between the Base case and the Energy Efficient Case occurring in the same hour between 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on business days, June 1 through September 30. New Definition Demand Savings (kw) = average load reduction in electricity demand between the Base case and the Energy Efficient Case occurring between 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. on business days, June 1 through August

13 1.6 Retrofit V2 Enhancements: Combined Track Combined Track Removal of Engineered Track and allowing Engineered Worksheets to be submitted through Custom Track Goals: Reduce confusion with Engineered Track Allow channel partners to use their own tools Improve net to gross through application of M&V Procedures Elements: Engineered Track will be removed from the Save on Energy website Engineered worksheets will remain available on Save on Energy website for reference Applicants can choose either Prescriptive or Custom Track All custom applications (including those submitted with an Engineered Worksheet) will require M&V plan in compliance with M&V procedures. In Market Date: Effective for applications submitted as of June 20,

14 1.7 Retrofit V2 Enhancements: Prescriptive Lighting Incentives Updates to the Prescriptive Lighting Incentives Version Retrofit Program - Lighting Eligible Measures worksheet and Version 6.0 Retrofit Program Exterior Lighting Eligible Measures worksheet Goals: Addition of new measures including LEDs Improve cost effectiveness, reasonableness of incentives based on measure cost and clarify savings assumptions Removal of obsolete measures (CFL, standard T8, HID, IR Halogen) Elements: Addition of new measures including LEDs Revision to measures and incentive levels (~$0.09/kWh) Assumed base case is for reference only (LDC Discretion) Prescriptive Exterior Lighting Worksheet includes pole mounted roadway/street lighting measures. In Market Date: Effective for new applications as of June 20,

22 Combined Track: Proposed Program Design Changes # Element Current Approach Proposed Change 1 Program Structure Three existing Tracks; Prescriptive, Engineered, and Custom Engineered Track will merge into the Custom Track 2 Applicant Experience Applicants currently use the Prescriptive or Engineered Tracks where a Worksheet exists. Custom Track used when the Project doesn t fit into the other predefined categories Measures have been redefined such that Applicants can choose the Track that works best for them at that time; Prescriptive or Custom. 3 Worksheets Engineered Worksheets must be used where the Measure falls into one of the pre-defined categories Applicants will be able to provide their own calculations (i.e. most valuable for lighting applications) 4 Realization Rates Engineered Projects are currently not subject to M&V requirements, which has negatively impacted realization rates All Custom projects, including ones that would have previously been submitted as Engineered, will be compliant with the [revised] M&V Procedures 22
