TELLUS INSTITUTE 1 Modelling of Energy Efficiency Recommendations for the West David Von Hippel David Nichols For the Air Pollution Prevention Forum of the Western Regional Air Partnership AP2 Forum, February 2002, Denver, CO
TELLUS INSTITUTE 2 Purpose To quantify the potential of achieving energy and demand savings by accelerating the market penetration of available efficiency technologies Demand-side measures reduce energy users’ need for electricity from “grid” through efficiency and on-site CHP
TELLUS INSTITUTE 3 Approach by Region Savings, costs for energy-efficiency in WSCR (Interior West), and WSCP (OR/W. ID) built up from estimates for 20+ program types per region Savings and costs for energy efficiency in CNV (CA/Las Vegas) estimated based on parameterization of a national (ACEEE) study
TELLUS INSTITUTE 4 Characterizing Measures Capital costs and energy use and other operating costs were gathered Potential efficiency measures were compared with “standard” practices, e.g. installation of equipment typically used Result: “incremental” measure costs and savings, i.e., relative to standard equipment
TELLUS INSTITUTE 5 Achievability Assumptions Greater market penetration of DSM implies financial incentives-- incentive costs were assumed and included Also included were expenditures for administering marketing programs Our assumptions are “heuristic” to motivate market penetration targets used Some non-DSM initiatives
TELLUS INSTITUTE 6 Residential Measures Included in Assessment
TELLUS INSTITUTE 7 “Commercial” Measures Assessed
TELLUS INSTITUTE 8 Industrial Measures Assessed
TELLUS INSTITUTE 9 Measures Not Assessed Load response and load management programs Distributed generation without CHP Renewable energy technologies Gas energy efficiency measures Transportation sector measures

TELLUS INSTITUTE 27 Next Steps Review results with AP2F comments Contribute documentation to ICF Consulting report to AP2F Level of detail needed for energy- efficiency write-up Post-study: Work on implementation approaches
TELLUS INSTITUTE 28 Potential Follow-on? Prepare by-measure estimate for CNV Similar to WSCR/WSCP analyses--but who would be the users/funders?) Break down analysis by state? Model energy efficiency as blocks of different sizes/costs within IPM? Transfer energy-efficiency estimation capabilities to states?
