This project will encompass applying an ASTM standard lab test method to up to five different models of soft serve ice cream freezers to support the development of an equipment database. Once populated, the database will be used to support workpaper...

This project is to assess the state of LED tubes for retrofitting linear fluorescent lamps used in recessed troffer applications. The options range from simple lamp only replacements to full lamp and ballast retrofits. The assessment would include research for existing literature on specifications...

Weather-based algorithms (WBA) for smart thermostats combine compatible thermostats with detailed weather data, rate information, and analytics-informed behavioral techniques to optimize existing customer thermostat set points for EE while maintaining occupant comfort. The goal of this study is to...

This Project is aimed at a set of customers that do not have the appropriate SCE EE Offering to accomplish their goals. Specifically, the Project will allow chain-type commercial customers with similar buildings to implement the same set of measures at each site. Identical projects at...

Measure energy saved when a VSD is added to a car vacuum cleaning system at a full service car wash. VSD control allows the vacuum motor to change speed to match needed vacuum pressure and air...

This study characterizes the lighting performance of bi-level ceramic metal halide (CMH) area lighting fixtures for substation uplight duty, and quantifies the energy savings potential when compared to conventional pulse start metal halide (PSMH) area fixtures. This market subset of the general...

Field evaluation of vacuum sealing/packaging machines of 3 sites for use in supermarkets. Rather than leaving the heating element on continuously, the new unit activates the heating element used to seal packages only when the machine is in use. Same technology as was tesed in...

Evaluate LED retrofit modules/signs for energy savings and luminance. Test performance against baseline linear fluorescent and appropriate municipal codes for Street Name...

Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) LED for Wastewater Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI) Much like light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have revolutionized the general (visible spectrum) lighting industry, UV-C LEDs are set to rapidly replace conventional UV mercury vapor lamps in water disinfection and water reuse...

The purpose of the project is to verify the performance and efficiency of a 5-ton indirect evaporative hybrid roof top air-conditioning unit developed primarily for the small commercial market...
