Building electrification is a cost-effective approach to building decarbonization; SCE has a recommended path forward

• SCE’s Clean Power Pathway (November 2017) identifies electrification of space and water heating as a cost-effective component of the economy-wide approach to meet California’s goals.

• E3’s “Deep Decarbonization in a High Renewables Future” (May 2018) identifies heat pumps in the loading order of cost effective GHG abatement measures.

• BUILD and TECH pilots are a start but likely not enough.

Home electrification measures will provide cost savings for most homeowners and developers, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions

Southern California Edison3

Electrification reduces greenhouse gas emissions in homes by up to 60% in 2020 and by up to 90% in 2050 as the grid decarbonizes.

Market & customer education is key for market transformation

4 Southern California Edison

“With education, customers appear to be willing to adopt building electrification technologies. However shifting the discussion toward ‘how to live in a zero-carbon home’ appears to be imperative. “ Consumer Awareness Study

Builders can pass upfront cost savings on to customers through use of high efficiency appliances

Southern California Edison5

Installation CostsFor all climate zones with air conditioning needs, all electric construction is less expensive than mixed fuel (electric AC + gas water heating, clothes drying and cooking)

Bill Savings Best-in-class HVAC and water heating electric appliances generate bill savings or reduce bill impacts for SF households

All-electric adoption by builders is lower than economic potential: incentives are needed

6 Southern California Edison

Understand barriers and learn from successful all-electric

developments/missed opportunities

Implement incentive program(s) to reduce upfront

costs & pair with market education

For retrofits of existing buildings, households can save on energy bills

Southern California Edison7

• All or nearly all single family and low-rise multifamily homes will see bill savings.

• Heat pumps are typically less expensive than a gas furnace + A/C combination.

• Heat pump water heaters are typically more expensive than gas tank water heaters but less expensive than gas tankless.
