| 20211121_RACC_Addendum_v1.pdf | 2021 Nov 21 | 2021 Nov 21 | Note: While the version of the calculator (titled 2021 ACC Refrigerant Calculator v1b.xlsx) that is referenced in footnote 1 on page 1 of this addendum is the official calculator referenced in the Decision, the one that must be submitted with relevant deemed measure package submissions and custom measure applications is available at Deemed Measure RACC Workbook v1.3-Rev4. |

| 2021_ACC_Refrigerant_Calculator_v1b.xlsx | 2021 Jan 1 | 2021 Dec 31 | 2020 Dec 31 | This is the version of the 2021 ACC Refrigerant Calculator v1b.xlsx that was referenced in the Decision and available here; it is quite different from--and should not be confused with--the calculator that must be submitted with deemed measure package submittals and custom measure applications. |

| Deemed_Measure_RACC_Workbook_v2.2.xlsx | 2023 Aug 25 | 2023 Aug 25 | Per Section 1.1.2 (B.2) Refrigerant Impacts (RACC) of Resolution E-5221, the CPUC's Refrigerant Avoided Cost Calculator (RACC) methodology is to be used to calculate the refrigerant emissions and their costs for measure packages where the retrofit involves adding (not replacing) equipment that uses refrigerant--these include fuel substitution and electric resistance to heat pump measures--or where low-GWP measure benefits will be claimed. Since the RACC was updated September 15, 2022, the Deemed Measure RACC Workbook had to be updated to be consistent with the revised methodology to handle the end-of-life emissions for accelerated replacement MAT, etc. This workbook incorporates these updates. | ||||||||||
| Deemed_Measure_RACC_workbook_v1.3-Rev4.xlsx | 2021 Nov 17 | 2023 Aug 24 | 2021 Nov 22 | This is the refrigerant leakage avoided cost calculator that must be submitted with all deemed measure package submissions and custom measure applications involving equipment that contains refrigerant. |

| RACC-FSC_v3.0.xlsx | 2024 Apr 22 | 2024 Apr 19 | The RACC-FSC_v3.0 shall be used to calculate refrigerant leakage emissions and avoided costs of net refrigerant leakage emissions and perform fuel substitution tests for all measures that involve adding or replacing equipment that uses refrigerant and involves a change to the refrigerant type or to the refrigerant charge —these include most fuel substitution and electric resistance to heat pump measures. The completed RACC-FSC_v3.0—containing the relevant parameters associated with a given measure package—shall be provided as an addendum to each affected measure package in the eTRM. Guidance for how to do so is described in the “RACC-FSC Technical Guidance Document” that was issued along with the RACC-FSC_v3.0 workbook.
*As of the issuance of the RACC-FSC_v3.0, the 2024 ACCs have not been finalized. See Appendix C of the Technical Guidance document for instructions on how to connect the RACC-FSC_v3.0.xlsx to the DEER database when opening the RACC-FSC_v3.0 for the first time and prompted with the ODBC driver login credential prompt. |
