9    (a) Findings and declaration of policy.
10        (i) It is hereby found and declared that Illinois has
11    abundant coal resources and, in some areas of Illinois, the
12    demand for power exceeds the generating capacity.
13    Incentives to encourage the construction of coal-fueled
14    electric generating plants in Illinois to ensure power
15    generating capacity into the future and to advance clean
16    coal technology and the use of Illinois coal are in the
17    best interests of all of the citizens of Illinois.
18        (ii) It is further found and declared that Illinois has
19    abundant potential and resources to develop renewable
20    energy resource projects and that there are many
21    opportunities to invest in cost-effective energy
22    efficiency projects throughout the State. The development
23    of those projects will create jobs and investment as well

13costs associated with reduced use of natural gas or other
14fuels, avoided costs associated with reduced water
15consumption, and avoided costs associated with reduced
16operation and maintenance costs, as well as other quantifiable
17societal benefits, to the sum of all incremental costs of
18end-use measures that are implemented due to the program
19(including both utility and participant contributions), plus
20costs to administer, deliver, and evaluate each demand-side
21program, to quantify the net savings obtained by substituting
22the demand-side program for supply resources. In calculating
23avoided costs of power and energy that an electric utility
24would otherwise have had to acquire, reasonable estimates shall
25be included of financial costs likely to be imposed by future
26regulations and legislation on emissions of greenhouse gases.

1In discounting future societal costs and benefits for the
2purpose of calculating net present values, a societal discount
3rate based on actual, long-term Treasury bond yields should be
4used. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the TRC test
5shall not include or take into account a calculation of market
6price suppression effects or demand reduction induced price
7effects.
