Presentation to UC/CSU Energy Managers Sunday, August 31, 2014 Energy Division California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)
Why am I here today? • Eric invited me to speak to you about • Rolling Portfolio Cycle • Water Energy • EM&V • But then he sent me your questions…
Why Invest in Energy Efficiency? • It saves you money • It can help mitigate climate change Let’s imagine a future where…
So where does energy efficiency fit it? Source: California Air Resources Board Scoping Plan, December 2008, Table 2.
What are the Energy Efficiency accomplishments? Average household assumed to use 9600 kWh/yr; Major power plant defined to be 400MW or greater Source: 2009 Energy Efficiency Evaluation Reports
The gap between U.S. and CA energy use can be partially attributed to EE.

CPUC policy emphasis focused on voluntary market Historical Agency Emphasis / Mandates Example IOU Programs
Ratepayer-funded EE programs have provided a Commission-estimated $1.8 billion of net benefits (TRC) over the past 9 years.

Codes & Standards Program Analysis /Support activities Principal audience is CEC’s building and appliance standards. Also influences federal appliance standards via DOE proceedings and the legislative process Major program activities: Codes and Standards Enhancement (CASE) studies Compliance Enhancement “Reach Codes” Planning and Coordination 22% of planned electric savings, 25% of gas savings, and 1% of portfolio budget* *Savings based on 2010-2012 cycle, non-verified.
Energy Efficiency Rulemaking • Phase 1: 2015 Funding, with targeted changes • Prop 39 Support • Locational targeting to enhance grid reliability • Drought response • Phase 2: “Rolling Portfolio Cycles” • Phase 3: Broader portfolio changes for 2016+ and Strategic Plan update
CPUC Process for Approval / Oversight of IOU EE Programs Current 2-3 year Budget Cycle Process: *Phase II of R.13-11-005 will consider moving away from the 2-3 year cycle to a Rolling Portfolio framework
Rolling Portfolio Cycle • Stakeholder effort underway to determine the framework. Proposal will be submitted to the proceeding when Phase II launches • The Joint Stakeholders believe that long-term energy efficiency funding authorization will: • create market stability, • sustain momentum and performance of successful programs, • improve ability to “count” efficiency for resource planning, and • enable the “delinking” of the contracting process from regulatory schedules.
Water Energy Nexus • There are two distinctly different types of water impacts on the energy sector: • Energy Use by the Water Sector • Energy Use by Water Customers • The energy IOUs are currently piloting projects to reduce embedded energy in water
