Abstract
ABSTRACT Part 1 of Lindsay Audin's 3-Part Series on “Interactions Between Retail Power Pricing and Energy Efficiency Options” reviewed the new types of pricing which have recently evolved, following the deregulation of electricity. These electricity pricing programs can impact the payback periods of both energy efficiency and distributed generation plans. Professionals will want to minimize costs risks. To do this, they need to pay close attention to how they integrate power procurement with equipment-based efforts to cut their energy costs. Part 2 of Mr. Audin's report, presented here, analyzes seven major energy efficiency systems, and reviews how each is influenced by different power pricing options. In the Commercial/Industrial sectors, there are hundreds of technical measures that can improve energy efficiencies. (Walt Smith's article in Strategic Planning for Energy and the Environment, Summer 2000, Vol. 20, No. 1, lists 302 of them) Not all warrant analyzing the way to best match them to various energy pricing options. But this sampling of seven of the more important ones could be extended to other energy system upgrades and new installations.
