REQUEST:
On page 8 of its Application, the Company estimates that the Company's DSM programs reduced
residential usage by approximately 282,000 therms/yr and non-residential usage by
approximately 70,000 therms/yr in20l7. Please answer the following:
What was the base year used to determine the 2017 reduction in consumption?
Please provide the Company's estimate of the total weather-normalized change in
consumption over the same time period for the same customer groups.
RESPONSE:
a. The base year used to determine the 2017 reduction in consumption was calendar year
2014, which was the test year associated with case number AVU-G-15-01 that established
2017 rates.
b. Please see "Staff PR_00lFCA Attachment A" for the total weather-normalized change in
consumption. The weather-normalized data is in the'Nat Gas Weather Correction" tab of
the workbook.
Additionally, we inadvertently reported the reduction in residential usage as 282,000 therms and
it should have been reported as272,000 therms as shown in Attachment A.
