2013-14 Targeted Effectiveness Study Findings (ED) IOUs met PIP objectives portfolio & CEESP 122 measures to portfolio; 2% of ex-ante savings Aligned with CEESP, but metrics aren’t sufficient for tracking long term (MT) impact Tracking challenges hamper ability to track savings impacts; but are there! ETP a “leader” with broad array of tactics Focus on technical readiness (2/3s of projects) Need to improve market readiness efforts Uses a broad array of tactics, but Strategic focus needed: tactic selection Info dissemination good: 50% of surveyed use website Submission link hard to find
Effectiveness Study Recommendations (1) Adjust PPM and PIP Objectives to measure program effectiveness technology metrics (not project)? Actual vs. technical potential for measures transferred? Improve: project status, adoption and measure transfer Clarify annual and cumulative reporting Ensure correct measure code use Improve tracking in custom projects Pilot a SW “strategic technology plan” Shift to technology-level focus Increase: SW; tactics market readiness Start with 1 technology (5% budget) 4. Increase attention to market barriers Practices not consistent nor systematic 5. Improve ETCC website navigability & content
2015 Targeted Effectiveness Study (ED) draft options Assess success in implementing new tracking approaches in 2014-15 Tracking comprehensive technology support Clarify annual and cumulative reporting Ensure correct measure code use Improve tracking in custom projects Continue to assess scanning and screening efforts Ensure screening tools appropriate for tactics Evaluate project choices re screening / selection Strategic Technology Plan pilot Status? Need to focus more, and systematically, on market barriers and technology supply support, for MT purposes
ETP Study Needs for 2016 and Beyond? ETP moving to SW administration What issues or needs have not been recently covered? What is likely to come out of the business plans to anticipate study needs? Are there other triggers creating study needs? Funds available: IOU Earmarked $100K / year; ED has $391 K (2015) + $105 K/ year
