The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), in partnership with local power companies, actively promotes electrification and fuel switching through its EnergyRight programs. Certain local power companies have the option to offer their customers additional incentives from the incentives provided by TVA.
TVA’s Commercial Energy Solutions organization, in partnership with DNV GL, has also created a measure-level net carbon emissions calculator for the electrification portfolio that estimates the carbon impact of certain measures. In calculating agency CO2 emissions inventories, TVA uses the World Resources Institute’s (WRI) corporate greenhouse gas accounting protocols to calculate agency CO2 emissions inventories. Generally, if the fuel switching results in actual, measurable efficiency improvements, TVA also claims energy savings.
