Essential Usage StudyPublic Meeting Friday, September 6, 2019 9:45-Noon PDT Participating IOUs: Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E) Southern California Edison (SCE)
Agenda for Today’s Call • Safety • Welcome and Introductions • Goals for Today’s Webinar • Ways to Provide Input to the Study Design • Overview of the Residential Appliance Saturation Study • Proposed Study Timeline • Next Steps
Welcome and Introductions • Key study contacts at the electric IOUs: • PG&E: Brian Arthur Smith, b2sg@pge.com • SCE: Hank Elgin, Hank.Elgin@sce.com • SDG&E: Cynthia Fang, cfang@sdge.com • Key contacts for the RASS study at DNV GL • Claire Palmgren, Claire.Palmgren@dnvgl.com • Paula Ham-Su, Paula.Ham-Su@dnvgl.com
Webinar Goals • To inform interested parties about the upcoming study. • To invite stakeholders to participate in its design. • To outline processes for stakeholder engagement.
Guidelines for Participating • For technical and quality purposes, please mute audio when lines are open. • Use chat function for: • Asking questions • Making comments • An initial study framework is posted online for comments. • Notes from this meeting will be added to the online doc.
Proposal to Use RASS as the Foundational Data Source • The electric IOUs propose using the 2019 Residential Appliance Saturation Study (RASS) as the basis for the essential use study. • Consistent with decision language. • The most comprehensive survey of energy end-use in California. • Approximately 40,000 households in the IOU service territories are included. • Future updates will provide a basis for updating essential use estimates. • Includes key demographic, geographic and design variables for studying essential use (e.g., climate zone, dwelling type and age, household income, etc.). • The electric IOUs propose contracting with the implementer (DNV-GL). • Demonstrated expertise with conditional demand modelling. • Produced 2003 and 2009 RASS studies with content, structure and estimates. • Has access to sample units for potential follow-up surveys. • A direct award will avoid delays caused by RFO processes.
Proposed Study Timeline • In-person Stakeholder Meeting (September 6, 2019) • Essential Usage Study Plan Filings • PG&E GRC Phase 2 (November 2019) • SCE Rate Design Window Application (November 2019) • Decision (Q1-Q2 2020) • Public Study Design Workshop (Q2 2020) • Study Implementation (Electric Component) (Q3-Q4 2020)
