Utility Reporting Metrics
- Illinois Energy Efficiency Policy Manual Version 3.0 was developed by the SAG Policy Manual Subcommittee from June 2022 to August 2023. Version 3.0 was approved by the ICC in December 2023. Version 3.0 includes four new reporting principle policies. Each of the new reporting principle policies stated: “Program Administrators shall work with interested stakeholders to reach consensus in developing the specific metrics to address these reporting needs. The metrics may evolve over time.”
