MPSC in 2020 did approve a couple of heat pump pilots • The Commission has recognized those statutory constraints, while still approving heat pump pilot programs for DTE and Consumers Energy (CE) • For DTE (U-20373) approved a pilot to install heat pumps in low-income homes with existing electric heat (and emphasized that limitation in its approval) • For CE (U-20372) approved a pilot to install heat pumps for low-income homes with existing heating from “non-commission regulated fuels such as propane”, to gather information about heat pump performance and costs. However, the order included an explicit caveat: •“Notwithstanding, the Commission cautions that measures that increase overall electricity consumption–regardless of a reduction in total million British thermal units energy usage or other benefits–are not suitable for full-scale electric EWR program implementation. The Commission stresses the importance of maintaining the integrity of electric EWR programs with respect to the clear statutory charge in 2008 PA 295 as amended–that is, to save kilowatt-hours and defer investment in new power plants. See, e.g., December 4, 2008 order in Case No. U-15800, p. 13 (“The overall goal of an [EWR] plan is to reduce the future costs of provid[ing] service to customers.”) (p.2) [emphasis added] 20PDF Image | Heat Pumps for Space and Water Heating
