Ms. Ciccone has extensive expertise with analysis of smart meter data, rate design, potential studies, and impact evaluation for pricing, demand response, and behavioral programs. Some recent examples of her work include:

  • Analysis of revenue-neutral cost-based rate design for over 2,000 time-varying, demand and demand-subscription rates including impacts on customer bills and volatility
  • Analyzing energy savings for behavioral programs for Seattle City Light
  • Implementing the analysis for the California Statewide Non-residential Critical Peak Pricing and the California Baseline Interruptible Program for multiple years
