Distribution Efficiency – “Small rural utilities are not subject to PUC regulations, but do face significant informational barriers to implementing DE measures. As a result, they are much less informed about DE opportunities, are much less likely to have knowledgeable employees and much less likely to have conducted research into DE potential on their systems. If NEEA and/or BPA wish to promote distribution efficiency in the PNW, either or both could develop an Internet-based educational resource, focused primarily on these utilities, detailing the most frequently cost effective opportunities for DE.“ – Navigant Consulting, “NEEA Long-Term Monitoring and Tracking: Distribution Efficiency” June 2014 Navigant Consulting, “NEEA Long-Term Monitoring and Tracking: Distribution Efficiency” June
