Energy Efficiency in Nova Scotia 2019-2020

Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board
Project Complete

As a continuation of previous work, Synapse provided counsel to the NS UARB with technical consulting services on demand side management (DSM) issues. As part of the project, Alice Napoleon submitted evidence on EfficiencyOne?s proposed 2020-2022 Demand Side Management Resource Plan. In addition, Synapse reviewed, conducted analysis, and provided comments on the following issues: improving the accuracy of energy savings and spending projections; modeling DSM rate and bill impacts; assessing DSM potential in the province; designing a program to target DSM at locations where distribution system investment can be avoided; and modeling avoided transmission and distribution system costs.
