1.2.1.2 The Energy Action Plan II states: “The loading order identifies energy efficiency and demand response as the State’s preferred means of meeting growing energy needs. After cost effective efficiency and demand response, we rely on renewable sources of power and distributed generation, such as combined heat and power applications. To the extent efficiency, demand response, renewable resources, and distributed generation are unable to satisfy increasing energy and capacity needs, we support clean and efficient fossil-fired generation.”
1.2.1.3 The purpose of the State CHP Program is to encourage the continued operation of the State’s Existing CHP Facilities, and the development, installation, and interconnection of new, clean and efficient CHP Facilities, in order to increase the diversity, reliability, and environmental benefits of the energy resources available to the State's electricity consumers.
1.2.1.4 These policies and purposes will be achieved by a State CHP Program that procures CHP as set forth in this Settlement, retains existing efficient CHP, supports the change in operations of inefficient CHP to provide greater benefits to the State, and replaces CHP that will no longer be under contract with the IOUs with new, efficient CHP.
