I.D No. PSC-36-12-00009-P
EEPS Residential Programs Administered by Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
Proposed Action:
The Commission is considering a August 15, 2012 petition from Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. for modifications to the company's EEPS energy efficiency residential electric and gas programs.
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 4(1), 5(2) and 66(1)
Subject:
EEPS residential programs administered by Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc.
Purpose:
To redesign the residential electric and gas programs and modify the budgets and targets.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Commission is considering whether to adopt, modify, or reject, in whole or in part, or to take other action regarding a filing submitted on August 15, 2012 by Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Con Edison) to redesign its Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard electric and gas residential programs.
Con Edison seeks to eliminate its electric Residential Direct Install Program and certain other measures that do not pass cost-effectiveness tests. Con Edison also seeks to reduce the residential electric program portfolio savings target by 25%, with a corresponding budget reduction of 38%, and reduce the residential gas programs savings target by 3%, with a corresponding budget reduction of 10%. Finally, Con Edison plans to modify and/or expand the measures and incentives offered to customers in the redesigned residential programs, and rename the "Residential Room AC Program" to the "Residential Appliance Rebate Program."
The Commission may apply its decision here to other utilities and/or the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority. In addition, Commission action on this matter may result in modifications to the Energy Efficiency Portfolio Program Classification Groups.
