“…The portion of these upstream lighting savings claimed by the upstream lighting program equals the product of the upstream lighting savings, the ratio of upstream sales to total market sales, and the upstream program net-to-gross ratio. 51 For studies showing that energy savings may persist after customers stop receiving home energy reports, see Integral Analytics (2011), Allcott and Rodgers (2014), Navigant (2016, DNV GL (2016, 2018), Skumatz (2016), and NMR Group (2017). Allcott and Rodgers (2014) estimate a savings decay rate of about 19% per year.…”

“…Table 1 summarizes the benefits and requirements of evaluating BB programs using RCTs and REDs, as described in Sections 3.1-3.4. 24 Studies show that savings may persist after treatment stops (Allcott and Rodgers 2014;Brattle 2012;SMUD 2011;PSE 2012;Khawaja and Stewart 2014;Olig and Young 2016;and Skumatz 2016). Allcott and Rodgers (2014) estimate a savings decay rate of about 19% per year.…”

“…There are two kinds of savings effects to measure: the effect of continuing the intervention on consumption is called savings during treatment, and the effect on consumption after discontinuing the intervention is called post-treatment savings. Recently, researchers have conducted analyses or meta-analyses of savings persistence for home energy reports programs (Allcott and Rogers 2014;Khawaja and Stewart 2014;Olig and Young 2016;Skumatz 2016).…”

PrefaceThis document was developed for the U.S. Department of Energy Uniform Methods Project (UMP). The UMP provides model protocols for determining energy and demand savings that result from specific energy-efficiency measures implemented through state and utility programs. In most cases, the measure protocols are based on a particular option identified by the International Performance Verification and Measurement Protocol; however, this work provides a more detailed approach to implementing that option. Each chapter is written by technical experts in collaboration with their peers, reviewed by industry experts, and subject to public review and comment. The protocols are updated on an as-needed basis.The UMP protocols can be used by utilities, program administrators, public utility commissions,
