Elizabeth A. Stanton, PhD
August 2023
On behalf of New Jersey Rate Counsel, Clinic Director and Principal Economist Dr. Liz Stanton drafted testimony in dockets for seven New Jersey utilities regarding their plans for their energy efficiency and peak demand response programs, focusing on: the size and cost of proposed programs and measures; building decarbonization planning and expected changes to total utility bills; full system cost accounting in building decarbonization program budgets; demand response roll-out and expected customer impacts; staff and other technical capacity to successfully implement budgeted programs; and other ratepayer impacts. These testimonies are not publicly available due to a settlement agreement.
Since 2023, Dr. Stanton has also provided technical support to New Jersey Rate Counsel in various stakeholder processes related to New Jersey utilities’ energy efficiency programs and planning, including three-year plan development, Evaluation Measurement and Verification (EM&V), and Technical Resource Manual (TRM).
