Besides meters, the CPUC also ruled on Wednesday regarding
metrics to track the smart grid projects of the state’s
three largest utilities. Every year, SDG&E, PG&E and SoCal
Edison will have to have report on 19 metrics, including:
* Number of smart meter malfunctions where customer electric
service is disrupted;
* Number of utility-owned smart meters supporting consumer
devices with home area network (HAN) or comparable consumer
energy monitoring or measurement devices registered with the
utility;
* Number of escalated customer complaints related to the
accuracy, functioning, or installation of smart meters or
the functioning of a utility-administered HAN with
registered consumer devices;
* Number of utility-owned smart meters replaced annually
before the end of their expected useful life;
* Number and percentage of customers with smart meters using
a utility-administered internet or a web-based portal to
access energy usage information or to enroll in utility
energy information programs;
* Number of customers enrolled in time-variant electric
vehicle tariffs;
* System-wide and total number of minutes per year of
sustained outage per customer served;
* Total annual electricity deliveries from customer-owned or
operated, grid-connected distributed generation facilities;
and,
* Total megawatt and megawatt-hours of grid connected energy
storage at the transmission and distribution system.
