Demand Side Management, Conservation and Efficiency Improvements Clause Samples

Demand Side Management, Conservation and Efficiency Improvements. MP initiated a Demand Side Management (DSM), Conservation Improvement Program in the early 1980’s. Customer conservation improvement efforts include activities such as space heating, high efficiency lighting, process control, and energy auditing. The process efficiency improvement program is targeted to serve the needs of our industrial customers. MP has also implemented internal conservation measures to reduce our own electric usage. The benefits of conservation improvements are included in the Minnesota Power load forecast, since it is anticipated that reducing customer electricity use will result in decreased electricity generation. Decreased generation due to implementation of the MP conservation improvement program, in turn, results in a reduction in mercury emissions. The benefits of industrial process efficiency improvements are both direct and indirect. Direct reductions in emissions are achieved as a result of less customer energy use per unit of production. However, it is anticipated that reducing the unit cost of production for our industrial customers may also result in increased production. In this case, the customer would acquire additional market share, displacing less efficient suppliers. The indirect impact from efficiency improvement might be the reduced emissions from less efficient suppliers that lose market share.
