Project: National Energy Efficiency Best Practices Study
Pacific Gas & Electric
Research Into Action was a key member of the team that produced the National Best Practices Study between 2003 and 2007. The study was sponsored by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to identify best practices for 18 different energy efficiency program types. The team developed and implemented a method to identify and communicate excellent programmatic practices in order to enhance the design of energy efficiency programs in California. Research Into Action assisted in the identification and selection of over 100 programs for screening and in-depth interviews, and then conducted the screening and interviews for six to ten programs in four program areas: residential lighting, comprehensive residential single-family weatherization, multifamily weatherization, and education and training services for trade allies. We developed the profiles and wrote a discussion of the best practices for program components for each of the four program areas. We identified additional programs for review, recommended a final set of programs for benchmarking, collected data for each program selected, summarized findings, and prepared draft and final reports for each assigned area.
