9.3 Impact Evaluation Net Savings<br />
Act 129 compliance is based on gross savings, but the Company's Evaluators are presently finalizing a<br />
portfolio-level net to gross survey to inform the program planning for Phase II of Act 129. The<br />
evaluation of the legacy FirstEnergy companies included net-to-gross research based on <strong>Program</strong> <strong>Year</strong> 3<br />
(PY3) participants. Given the mid-year transition of <strong>West</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong> programs to FirstEnergy's model,<br />
<strong>West</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong> specific net-to-gross research was not conducted. The evaluation team plans to<br />
complete net-to-gross research on <strong>West</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong> program participants starting in February 2013 and<br />
based on six months of PY4 participants. These results will be available in time to inform the final plans<br />
for Phase II. The Net-to-Gross data acquisition will be based on participant self-report surveys and will<br />
follow a similar approach as that used for the FirstEnergy legacy companies.<br />
9.4 Process Evaluation<br />

implementation model of the other three operating companies (Met-Ed, Penelec, and <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong>).<br />
