PUBLIC NOTICE
Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules, notice is hereby given of the Application of Questar Gas Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Wyoming (Dominion or the Company), for approval of the 2021 year budget for Energy Efficiency Programs.
Dominion is a public utility as defined by Wyo. Stat. § 37-1-101(a)(vi)(D), subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction pursuant to Wyo. Stat. § 37-2-112.
On October 29, 2020, Dominion submitted its Application requesting approval of its 2021 year budget and modification to the ThermWise® Energy Efficiency Programs pursuant to Wyo. Stat. § 37-2-121, Commission Rule Chapter 3, Section 21, and the Commission’s Order issued on February 6, 2013, in Docket No. 30010-119-GT-12 (Record No. 13321).
Dominion proposes continuing the five existing ThermWise® Energy Efficiency Programs (Programs). The five programs are the: [i] Appliance Rebates Program; [ii] Builder Rebates Program; [iii] Business Rebates Program; [iv] Home Energy Plan Program; and [v] Weatherization Rebates Program.
The Company proposes the addition of dual-fuel heating systems and energy recovery ventilation to the existing mix of rebate-eligible equipment in the Appliance Rebates Program in 2021. The Company proposes to offer an $800 rebate for single family homes and a $450 rebate for multifamily properties that purchase and install dual-fuel heating systems. The Company proposes to change the rebate efficiency standard for the current fireplace rebate measure from annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) to fireplace efficiency (FE) in 2021.
Under the Builder Rebates Program, the Company proposes to add the dual-fuel heating system and energy recovery ventilation rebates, make the change from AFUE to FE for fireplaces in 2021 and eliminate the builder rebate credit. Under the Business Rebates Program, the Company proposes to add the dual-fuel heating system rebate. The Company proposes no major changes to the Home Energy Plan or the Weatherization Rebates Program.
Dominion projects the total 2021 budget for the Programs and Market Transformation Initiative to be $163,593, a decrease of 23% from the 2020 budget. Dominion states the requested budget decrease is due to lower expected participation in the 2021 Wyoming ThermWise® programs and expected reductions in administrative and rebate processing costs in 2021, which the Company attributes to the lingering impacts of COVID-19. The Company projects a total natural gas savings at 5,863 Dth/year, 28% below its projected 2020 natural gas savings estimate.
This is not a complete description of the Application. Dominion’s Application is on file at the Company’s business office located at 1005 D Street, Rock Springs, Wyoming, and at the Commission’s offices in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Application is available for inspection by any interested person during regular business hours or online at psc.wyo.gov. Please mention Docket No. 30010-194-GT-20 (Record No. 15640) in your communications.
Anyone desiring to file a statement, public comment, protest, intervention petition, or request for a public hearing in this matter must file in writing with the Commission on or before December 4, 2020. A proposed intervention or request for hearing must set forth the grounds under which they are made and the position and interest of the petitioner in this proceeding.
If you wish to intervene in this matter or request a public hearing that you will attend, or if you wish to file a statement, public comment, or protest, and you require reasonable accommodation for a disability, please contact the Commission at (307) 777-7427, or write to the Commission at 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002, to make arrangements.
