  1. Behavior Based Energy Efficiency (BBEE) October 2011

  2. What is behavior based energy efficiency? BBEE focuses on energy savings resulting from changes in individual or organizational behavior and decision-making. At a minimum, BBEE programs use energy use feedback to show consumers how much energy they have used compared to another point in time. Examples Provide residential end-users with information on their energy use, comparisons with usage by others, goal setting, ideas for achieving efficient energy use, and rewards. Assist commercial end-users to benchmark their building(s) energy use and improve operating performance through building or equipment tune-ups and changes to O&M routines. Energy Efficiency 2011

  3. BPA’s Strategy BPA has initiated a behavior change strategy which aims to enable, validate and increase the amount and persistence of energy savings achieved through behavior based energy efficiency programs in the Northwest. BPA's Objectives • Monitor and assess national and regional behavior based energy efficiency (BBEE) programs and activities, identify and promote use of best practices. • Create policies that help build program infrastructure that all Northwest public utilities can use to operate BBEE programs and achieve related energy savings. • Collaborate with Northwest public utilities and market partners to implement and evaluate innovative BBEE pilot programs.

  4. Funding Opportunity Announcement BPA recently issued a FOA for innovative BBEE pilot programs with applications due November 7, 2011. The objective is to collaborate with interested BPA public utility customers and their market partners to advance the region’s collective knowledge, experience and understanding of BBEE strategies and tactics and achieve greater levels of behavior based energy savings. For more information and a copy of the FOA go to the behavior change tab on BPA’s Energy Efficiency website homepage at http://www.bpa.gov/energy/n/
