  2. Ohio Electric Partnership Program • Electric usage reduction program managed by Ohio Office of Energy Efficiency • High use electric PIPP customers are targeted for service delivery • Measures include refrigerators, freezers, light bulbs, aerators, showerheads, water heater wraps

  3. Macroeconomic Effects

  4. Economic Multiplier Example: • Program expenditures (direct effects): $10 million • Indirect effects: $500,000 • Induced effects: $1 million • Multiplier = 1.15

  5. Ohio Economic Benefits • Expenditure of State funds on program substitutes for expenditure of State funds on energy assistance. • Ratepayers have reduced electric costs if program benefit/cost ratio is > 1.

  6. Expenditure of State Funds • If Ohio was not spending State funds on the EPP, these funds would be used to subsidize electric bills. • Expenditures on energy conservation have a greater impact on the economy than expenditures on electricity. • A larger fraction of expenditures on energy conservation are spent inside the state. • Energy conservation work is more labor intensive than electricity production.

  7. Expenditure of State Funds Economic benefit from EPP expenditures = EPP expenditures in Ohio ( ) conservation multiplier electric multiplier – * – EPP expenditures outside Ohio electric multiplier *

  8. Reduction of Ratepayer Subsidy • If the program has a benefit/cost ratio of > 1, there will be an additional reduction in the amount spent on electricity. • This reduction goes to the Ohio ratepayers who had subsidized the electric use of PIPP participants. • Ohio ratepayers have more disposable income to spend on consumer goods that have higher multipliers for the Ohio economy than electricity multipliers.

  9. Reduction of Ratepayer Subsidy Economic benefit from EPP net benefits = ( consumer goods multiplier ) net benefits spent electric multiplier – * – electric multiplier net benefits saved *
