What is Beneficial Electrification?

 

Beneficial Electrification includes the application of electricity to end-uses where doing so satisfies at least one of the following conditions, without adversely affecting the others:

  • Saves consumers money over time;

  • Benefits the environment and reduces greenhouse gas emissions;

  • Improves product quality or consumer quality of life;

  • Fosters a more robust and resilient grid

BE programs are a valuable opportunity to engage both electric utilities and environmental groups in the effort to identify solutions that work well for the end-use consumer, local communities and the environment.
