High-lows and Ranges
• Electricity price change– Price of permits (if any) or tax rate: energy price
change– level or target of emissions reduction in target years
• Reinvestment– In businesses– Tax credits or fee bates for consumers– Other government spending– How much if any?

Methodology
• Linking energy/environmental models with regional economic model – Choosing appropriate energy model outputs as inputs to
PI+– Energy model outputs: fuel price changes, technological
advancement requirements
• PI+ Scenario– Increase in electricity prices– Feebates for energy efficient appliances

Choosing Inputs
• Policy Variables (PVs)– Consumer Price: Electricity (amount) – Electricity Fuel Cost (Industrial, amount)– Electricity Fuel Cost (Commercial, amount)– Consumer Spending : Kitchen and other
Household Appliances (Amount)– Consumer Reallocation (Amount)
