15. Calculating Net Energy Reduction

As noted above, certain incentive calculations rely on net energy reduction. Following California regulations, the net energy reduction is calculated by comparing the actual energy usage during Power Hour with the baseline energy usage at your residence. In order to calculate the baseline, the 10 prior days are used as follows: first, the 5 highest usage days in the 10 prior days are selected. Second, the 5 days are averaged. This average is the baseline energy usage. For more information, please visit Section 17 of the CPUC ruling here. If for any Power Hour net energy usage is zero or negative, you will not be counted as a participant for that Power Hour.
