Energy Efficiency Programs and Policies in Arkansas

Regulatory Assistance Project
Project completed July 2013.

Synapse was part of a team of efficiency experts organized by the Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP) to assist with a comprehensive overhaul of the energy efficiency programs and policies in Arkansas. Synapse focused on comprehensive energy efficiency program design; efficiency savings targets; utility shareholder incentives for efficiency programs; energy efficiency program reporting; program evaluation, measurement and verification (EM&V); a collaborative process for stakeholder input; and integrated resource planning rules. Synapse worked directly with staff at the Arkansas commission to assist in developing policies and writing commission orders.
