New Strategies in Energy Efficiency Programs
Michael McAteer Director, Customer Business Strategies National Grid, Waltham, MA
Massachusetts Three-Year Plan Green Communities Act: Develop 3 yr plan for acquisition of all
available cost effective energy efficiency Aggressive Energy Savings Goals = 2.6M MWH, 58M Therm State budget 2010-2012= $1.3 Billion (electric), $347M (gas) Plan Reflects: A construct for gas/electric program integration and seamless delivery
across PAs= MASS SAVE A commitment to go deeper in buildings (more comprehensive) and broader (more customer participation) = New Strategies in EE Programs

Mass Save® = Collaborative of Massachusetts’ gas and
electric utilities and energy efficiency service providers Work closely with DOER to provide a wide range of services, incentives, trainings, and information promoting
energy efficiency that help residents and businesses manage energy use and related costs

Upstream Lighting Goal: Quickly convert current standard T8 market to reduced wattage T8s MA 2010 T8 sales, units
HPT8 (32 watt), 907,200 , 11%
RW T8s (30, 28, 25watt), 2,577,200 , 31%
Potential to capture 22.5M kWh to 50.9M kWh annual savings over 4 year program plan for Mass Save Std.T8 sales, 4,886,600 , 58%
Massachusetts T8 2010 sales (based on Osram Sylvania, GE and Philips sales data)
Offer Upstream Incentive to participating Distributors to remove cost delta between Standard T8 lamps and 28 watt reduced wattage T8 lamps •Transform the market to 28 watt T8 lamps •Encourages Distribution to stock only energy efficient lamps
First Steps towards a high volume, focused approach… 6 Next Steps LED replacement lamps
