20VAC5-304-40: Pilot or experimental programs

Utilities must seek commission approval of pilot or experimental programs that involve rates or promotional allowances, but other limited pilot or experimental programs may be conducted without prior commission approval. Utilities shall file reports with the commission's Division of Energy Regulation that identify any pilot or experimental program at least 30 days prior to its implementation. Periodic reports shall also be filed at least semi-annually with the commission's Division of Energy Regulation identifying all DSM pilot or experimental programs and the status of such programs.
