This report is the first Annual Report of the International Database on Energy Efficiency Programs (INDEEP), summarizing the activities of the first year (1994--1995). During this time period, the authors conducted the following activities: (1) reviewed existing international demand-side management (DSM) program data bases; (2) reviewed participating country`s experience in DSM program evaluation; (3) prepared case studies on 1--4 DSM programs per country; (4) tested the DEEP data collection instrument (DCI) and prepared an INDEEP DCI; (5) contacted potential users of the INDEEP data base; and (6) organized an INDEEP workshop. As a result of these activities, the authors accomplished more in the first year than what was expected, so that the work planned for five years can be accomplished in a shorter period of time and with a reduced budget. The key findings from the first year are the following: (1) based on a review of the literature and discussions with DSM experts in the participating countries, they found the proposed INDEEP data base to be unique and not duplicative of other data bases; (2) after intensive ``field testing`` of the INDEEP data collection instrument (DCI) on 14 European DSM programs, a four-page DCI was developed that INDEEP expertsmore » agreed to use for data collection in the second year of the project; (3) based on informal networking, DCI field testing, meetings with potential users of the INDEEP data base, and the INDEEP workshop, they found substantial interest in the INDEEP project, particularly from DSM program designers; (4) discussions with DSM experts in the participating countries and at an INDEEP workshop attended by over 40 European DSM experts led to a consensus for the project to proceed for another year, focusing on: (a) additional data collection, (b) entering of data onto an Excel spreadsheet, and (c) close collaboration with potential users, building upon the existing network established in the first year.« less
