Table 3. Credit for Pre-Rules Energy Savings

total energy savings credit for these pre-rules energy efficiency programs may be applied each year, from 2016 through 2020, as listed in Table 3, Column A.

CALENDAR YEAR	A CREDIT FOR THE PRE-RULES ENERGY SAVINGS APPLIED IN EACH YEAR (Percentage of the Total Eligible Pre-Rules Cumulative Annual Energy Savings That Shall Be Applied in the Year)	B CUMULATIVE APPLICATION OF THE CREDIT FOR THE PRE-RULES ENERGY SAVINGS IN 2016-2020 (Percentage of the Total Eligible Pre-Rules Cumula- tive Annual Energy Savings That Are Credited by the End of Each Year)
2016	7.5%	7.5%
2017	15.0%	22.5%
2018	20.0%	42.5%
2019	25.0%	67.5%
2020	32.5%	100.0%

E.       An affected utility may count toward meeting the standard up to one third of the energy savings, resulting from energy effi- ciency building codes, that are quantified and reported through a measurement and evaluation study undertaken by the affected utility.

F.       An affected utility may count the energy savings from com- bined heat and power (CHP) installations that do not qualify under the Renewable Energy Standard toward meeting the energy efficiency standard.

G.      An affected utility may count a customer’s energy savings resulting from self-direction toward meeting the standard.

H.      An affected utility’s energy savings resulting from efficiency improvements to its delivery system may not be counted toward meeting the standard.

I.        An affected utility’s energy savings used to meet the energy efficiency standard will be assumed to continue through the year 2020 or, if expiring before the year 2020, to be replaced with a DSM energy efficiency program having at least the same level of efficiency.
