Abstract
DNV GL, an international company that offers engineering consulting services, was approached by three utility companies in New York: New York State Electric & Gas, Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation, and National Grid plc, to complete an analysis titled “New York Technical Potential Evaluation Study.” DNV GL approached the Anderson lab group to complete sections of the study, which spans the years of 2017 to 2027. The analysis includes the technical and economic potential of energy conservation measures that have been considered promising for New York: energy efficiency technologies, renewable energy, and Demand Response programs. This Design Project includes only the results of the analysis responsible for the technical and economic potential of the DR programs. For each utility, commercial programs are economically viable for every year. Residential programs had varying results across the three utilities, and should only be implemented going forward with consideration of recommended improvements.
