PENNSYLVANIA PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION

Implementation Order

Implementation of the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act of 2004: Standards for the Participation of Demand Side Management Resource--Technical Reference Manual Update; Doc. No. M-00051865

[39 Pa.B. 3148]
[Saturday, June 20, 2009]

   In implementing the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act (73 P. S. §§ 1648.1--1648.8), this Commission had previously adopted an Energy-Efficiency and DSM Rules for Pennsylvania's Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard, Technical Reference Manual (TRM), entered October 3, 2005. In adopting the original version of the TRM, the Commission directed the Bureau of Conservation, Economics and Energy Planning to oversee the implementation, maintenance and periodic updating of the TRM.

   Additionally, in the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Program Implementation Order, entered on January 16, 2009, at Docket No. M-2008-2069887, the Commission adopted the TRM as a component of the Energy Efficiency and Conservation (EE&C) Program evaluation process. In that Implementation Order, the Commission also noted that ''as the TRM was initially created to fulfill requirements of the AEPS Act, it will need to be updated and expanded to fulfill the requirements of the EE&C provisions of Act 129.'' Soon after the adoption of the EE&C Program Implementation Order, Commission staff initiated a collaborative process to review and update the TRM with the purpose of supporting both the AEPS Act and the Act 129 EE&C program.

   Subsequently, the Commission adopted an Order, at its May 28, 2009, public meeting, that adopted the 2009 version of the TRM as contained in the Annex to the Order as of its entry date of June 1, 2009. A copy of the Order and Annex can be found on the Commission's web site at http://www.puc.state.pa.us/pcdocs/104360.doc.
