DSM Residential Program Highlights ENERGY STAR® New Homes
70% of Q1 homes from top 10 builders2014 rebate levels reduced to manage costs, especially natural gasChanges communicated far in advance to builders and ratersExpect to keep program open for full-year 2014
Q1 off to a good start with 970 homes, 30% of gas savings goalProduct likely to remain open in ’14; gas costs are a concern

Pilot Updates Electric Vehicle Charging Station
Determine demand response opportunity available through control of EV charging stations and better understand:
Customers’ acceptance of charging interruptionAvailable load coincidence with peak demand
Completed installation of 10 planned Level II charging stations
Successfully initiated 12 charging events; 12 additional events planned for 2014Phase 1
Phase 2
Phase 3
Completed installation of 10 planned load control relays (e.g. Saver Switch for EVs)
Successfully initiated 5 charging events; 12 additional events planned for 2014
Draft SOW to work with GM to test OnStar solution in controlling vehicle charging
Planning for control of 10 GM electric vehicles via OnStar; 12 control events planned for 2014
Pilot Updates Community Energy Efficiency PlanningDetermine if providing energy efficiency planning and implementation assistance leads to lift in DSM program participation
The Brendle Group is the third-party administratorFour pilot communities each completed three workshopsThree communities are implementing their plans

Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) ReviewPresented by Pat Goggin
Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) ReviewMinnesota Program & Achievements Colorado ProgramMarch EEBC Meeting
MN 2013 GSHP Achievements2013 Forecasted Participation*
2013 Achievements**
GSHP Units 150 76
Generator kW Savings 96 145.6
Customer kWh Savings 53,179 48,657
Rebate ($USD) $101,250 $50,070
* As filed in MN E,G002 / CIP-12-447 ** kW and kWh achievements per participant vary from the forecast because the diversity of units participating in the program was different than anticipated.
MN GSHP Measure DetailsMeasure within Residential Cooling Program
Only take credit for cooling savingsMeasure fails when compared to gas furnace$150 per ton; $750 maximum rebate
Eligibility requirementsGSHP must be closed-loop, ENERGY STAR unit Minimum 14.1 EER
CO GSHP Measure DetailsMeasure within High Efficiency Air Conditioning Program (Residential)
Only 7 rebates issued in 2013 Measure fails when compared to gas furnaceAvailable to residential electric heating customers only$300 per ton; 5-ton limit ($1,500 max)
Eligibility requirementsGSHP must be closed-loop, ENERGY STAR unit Minimum 3.3 COP & 14.1 EERMust be installed by NATE Certified or IGSHPA technician
EEBC GSHP Meeting – March 25Potential new approach:
New baseline could be minimum code GSHPRebate for more efficient heat pumpAwaiting data to start the cost-effectiveness analysis
Challenges for the CO market:Electric heating customer base is smallPeak impacts for customersCustomers want to do it for non-economic reasonsFuel-switching exemption is in Natural Gas Rules
Makes it unclear whether we can ignore heating impacts0 PSCo customers with propane as primary fuelNon-Xcel supplied fuel savings = no Xcel DSM savings
