A Blueprint to Pilot Design: Best Practices and Lessons Learned
Presented at MI Power Grid: Energy Programs and Technology Pilots Stakeholder Meeting
Many utilities and jurisdictions have been testing innovative rate designs and/or technologies over the past two decades.
- These innovative/alternative rate designs address one or more deficiencies of the current flat and volumetric rate construct.
- Customer response and experience with these rates should be understood before offering these rates to the broader
population.
Brattle has been maintaining a database of the pricing and technology pilots conducted in the U.S. to track customer responsiveness to these rates, as well as to improve the state of the art for the next generation of pilots.
