Section 4: Beneficial Electrification Program Planning

 

Time to Make a Plan

Congratulations! You have determined that there is potential for beneficial electrification in your service territory. Now you need to determine if you will take some kind of action to accelerate the deployment of the beneficial electrification technology or strategy. To make this determination you need to come up with a program plan so you can decide if the benefits of conducting some kind of program merit an investment of time and funding.

Developing a plan of action and strategies to achieve your goals are key to successfully pursuing a beneficial electrification program. This will be a commitment of time and resources, and your plan will improve the efficiency and efficacy of whichever program you decide upon. Walk through this planning section with us and see what you’ll want to consider.

As you make your way through these final sections of this toolkit, you will notice dedicated portions for transportation-specific questions. Otherwise, these sections provide broad considerations that you should be aware of when designing any type of electrification program.
