CA Long Term EE Strategic Plan

2020 Goal: EE is “Business as Usual”

Foundation of innovation, integration and

collaboration establishes vision

• All cost-effective, reliable, and

feasible measures

• Integrated systems or whole-building

approach

• Long-term energy savings

• Significant reductions in greenhouse

gas emissions

More information available at www.californiaenergyefficiency.com

Emerging Technologies Program

Increase energy efficiency technology supply and

market demand

• Supply: Promote development and deployment of

new and underutilized energy efficiency measures

• Demand: Facilitate adoption

The Emerging Technologies Coordinating Council (ETCC)

is a collaborative forum for information exchange.

Technology Resource Incubation

Outreach (TRIO)

• Joint initiative of California’s investor-owned utilities (IOUs):

PG&E, SCE, SoCal Gas, and SDG&E

• Authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission

• Funded through electric and natural gas rates

Engage early-stage entrepreneurs in Energy Efficiency and

Demand Response marketplaces

Support California’s billion dollar rebate and incentive programs

Entrepreneurs benefit from customer incentives, participate as a

third-party implementer, or receive development support

What are we looking for?

NEW or UNDERUTILIZED technologies that deliver

INCREMENTAL savings:

• Save energy

• Reduce peak demand

• Create behavior change

Must show:

• Verifiable and sustainable savings

• Commercial availability

• Market barriers addressed

• Scalable to large market

• Align with DSM Program Portfolio and

California Long Term Strategic Plan

Utilities achieve energy savings

through “Programs”

All “Measures” implemented through “Programs”

Program Portfolio Includes:

• Energy Efficiency Programs

• Demand Response Programs

Programs Span:

• State-wide or utility-specific

• Upstream (i.e. manufacturer), midstream (e.g. retail or

channel) or down-stream (end user)

• All market segments: consumer, commercial, industrial,

hospitality, agriculture, etc.

• Deemed and customized

• Contract period

• Eligibility (e.g. size, meter)

• Firm Service Level

• Curtailment window

• Event trigger

• Notification time

• Incentive payment

• Non-compliance penalties

• Enabling technology

PG&E Demand Response Portfolio

• Aggregator (retail, bilateral)

• Optional Bidding Mandatory Curtailment

• Scheduled Load Reduction

• Base Interruptible

• Demand Bidding Program (DBP)

• Peak Day Pricing

Residential Programs

• SmartAC

• SmartRate

Enabling Technology Programs

• Automated Demand Response

• Permanent Load Shifting

Automated Demand Response (ADR)

Program

Helps customers investment in energy management

technologies that enable them to perform Demand

Response (DR). Includes:

• Incentives for DR-enabling technologies based on total

curtailable load;

• Project scoping, screening, auditing, and other technical

services as needed;

• Process management to help customers along each step of

program to successfully receive full incentives.

Automated Demand Response (ADR)

Customer Benefits include:

• Increased control and flexibility of their building

operations/processes;

• Lower utility bills through strategic management of their

building operations, hedging against potentially higher peak

demand rate charges

• Incentives can make projects more financially viable since up

to 100% of project costs can be recovered for DR-enabling

technology

• Additional incentives and greener brand through

participation in eligible DR programs

Refrigeration Heat Reclaim

Summary

The objective of this project is to evaluate heat recovery from refrigeration system for space heating in supermarkets. This project will identify opportunities to capture savings, select optimal configuration that minimizes impact on refrigerant change, and validate therms savings. Successful validation will help introduce technology to retrofit and new construction projects. Targeted at grocery superstores and potentially, industrial sector. Recently added as part of 2013 Title 24 for supermarkets, applicable to new construction.

Key Metrics, Impacts, Strategies

• There are about 1,350 supermarket stores in PG&E’s service territory that could benefit from this technology.

• Average 15,000 therms* savings per store per year, PG&E addressable market 20,250,000 therms.

• Vendor will provide design assistance, recommend sizing, hardware and HVAC integration; participate in calibration, commissioning and testing.

• Safeway will pay all hardware and incremental cost of contractors/vendors.
