Vermont law requires an independent audit every three years of the reported energy and capacity savings and cost-effectiveness of programs of energy efficiency programs approved by the Public Utility Commission. In fulfillment of this requirement, the Public Utility Commission contracted with Evergreen Economics for the independent audit of energy efficiency program years 2014-2016. The Evergreen Economics reports address the energy efficiency services delivered by Efficiency Vermont, BED, and Vermont Gas.
On September 25, 2019, the PUC adopted revised Procedures Applicable to Requests to Attribute More Than One Net-Metering System to a Group Pursuant to Commission Rule 5.129(E). The revisions implement Act 81 of 2019, which increased the amount of net-metering capacity that may be attributed to a school or school district, and now allow notice of requests to be provided to utilities using ePUC, instead of through the mail.
