19. Standards Background History of effective and successful state appliance and equipment efficiency standards starting in the 1970s (e.g. refrigerators)
Standards led to support for and enactment of national standards in 1987, 1988, 1992 and 2005
Overall federal appliance and equipment efficiency standards projected to save 9.1% of total U.S. electricity use and reduce CO2 emissions by 316 million metric tons in 2020
Overall savings to consumers and businesses from these existing standards will approach $250 billion by 2020.
20. Standards Selection If a national standard exists, states can only enforce a tougher standard by first petitioning the U.S. DOE for a waiver
Thus our focus is on items not currently regulated and possibly those that DOE has not updated (transformer Final Rule 10/12/07)
Opportunities for greater saturation of efficient appliances or requirements not covered for that appliance.
21. Standards Selection
22. Standards Selection * Specific standards not set, but DOE instructed to investigate whether standards were technically feasible and economically justified, and to set standards where these criteria were met.
23. Standards Selection
24. Standards Selection Provide significant and very cost-effective energy savings for purchasers/users
Readily available products that meet the standard
Easily developed and implemented at low cost to the state (either another state or national voluntary standard is already in use elsewhere).
