Utah Net Energy Metering

Synapse assisted Utah Clean Energy with review and input at a stakeholder workgroup meeting regarding the application of demand-side management (DSM) cost-effectiveness screening tests and practices to net energy metering (NEM) in Utah. Synapse presented on the Utility Cost Test and why it is an appropriate test for net energy metering screening; why the Rate Impact Measure test is not appropriate for either energy efficiency or NEM screening; and an alternative method for assessing the potential rate impacts and equity issues of NEM.
