Electric energy efficiency standard. Establishes an energy efficiency standard under which investor-owned electric utilities are required to reduce the consumption by their retail customers in the Commonwealth, through implementation of energy efficiency and conservation programs, by 2026 by 19 percent less than the consumption level currently projected for such year. Between 2011 and 2026, utilities are required to meet interim benchmarks established by the State Corporation Commission. The measure authorizes investor-owned electric utilities to earn the same enhanced rate of return on costs of energy efficiency programs that is currently provided for renewable powered generation facilities to recover the costs of designing and operating energy efficiency programs. A utility's energy efficiency programs shall be reported in its integrated resource plans.

Electric energy efficiency standard; established.
