Abstract

The recent demand-side management (DSM) emphasis and, more specifically, the advent of utility shareholder incentive/penalty mechanisms for utility's performance in implementing DSM programs has increased the importance of DSM programs to Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) Company. Over the period 1990–1995, PG&E's expenditures on DSM programs and evaluation of these programs accounted for half of all DSM funds expended by the four largest California investor-owned utilities. Because the energy and capacity savings are intended to offset supply-side resources in the long run, it is important to ascertain the extent to which these savings can be relied on over time. This paper shares PG&E's DSM experiences gained from the operational and measurement trenches in residential and nonresidential energy-efficiency activities and looks at the future of DSM.
