National Grid: Second-largest Utility in the U.S. The largest distributor of Natural Gas in the northeast U.S.
Approximately 3.4 million customers in New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island
Delivers electricity to approximately 3.3 million customers Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island
Manages the electricity network on Long Island under an agreement with
the Long Island Power Authority Serving 1.1 million LIPA customers
2011 – New US Operating Model Jurisdictional areas created state by state to be the local face of
National Grid Stronger connected community and customer relationships at a local
level

Energy Efficiency Programs National Grid places a strong emphasis on helping our customers manage their energy usage and take advantage of new sustainable energy solutions
National Grid’s Energy Efficiency Programs and Incentives will:
Identify energy savings opportunities and provide technical services for the installation of premium energy efficient equipment to replace aging, inefficient equipment
Lower project Costs by up to 50% for installing energy saving equipment

5
Program Development
Result of regulatory process - individual state’s social, regulatory and policy decisions for both residential and commercial and industrial customers
Costs are covered through regulatory filings
Commission orders drive final program design, incentive and funding levels
Regulatory approval is required for all programs

7
Customer Incentive Options…
CUSTOM Includes measures not covered
under the prescriptive incentives.
Requires a technical analysis of proposed energy measures and associated energy savings to determine incentive amount. Incentives are generally the lesser of: Up to 50% of the installed
cost which includes labor and equipment
A buy-down of equipment costs equal to a six months or a one-year payback
PRESCRIPTIVE Fixed incentives paid for
installation of specific, predetermined energy efficiency measures and equipment.
Eligible equipment must have specified energy efficiency ratings
Examples: Lighting, Lighting Controls, Air Compressors, EMS, Heating and Insulation

What is Shareholder Incentive?
Financial “rewards” for National Grid
Money that is collected from ratepayers (through SBC and Energy Efficiency)
National Grid is “rewarded” financially…
If we hit savings targets and stay with in budget that has been agreed on with the regulators

12
Shareholder Incentive - Purpose
Motivate the successful delivery of energy efficiency programs to achieve savings goals
Align business interests with public policy interests
Partially compensated company for lost sales revenue With revenue decoupling, this is less of a factor
Focus is on components that policy-makers think are needed to achieve state policy Maximize savings Cost-effectiveness Other elements to drive program design to serve
selected target populations, innovate, and/or be more comprehensive
