Conduct field evaluation of the performance of a novel approach to cooling dairy cows by installing hydronic heat exchanger panels beneath the manure free stall beds. The project will measure energy consumption of the new system relative to the baseline high-speed low-volume fans and feed lane...

As identified in the California Long Term Energy Efficiency Plan (CLTEESP), one of the Big Bold Strategies includes that All Residential Construction will be zero net energy (ZNE) by 2020. The purpose of this All-Electric Residential ZNE Home Field Monitoring Assessment measurement and verification...

Roof mounted, radiative sky cooling panel has a specialized film that cools when outside. These panels cool with minimal electricity, all day long throughout the year without evaporating water. The panels can be integrated into any new or existing refrigeration/HVAC system as an efficiency add-on...

SCE will document the process of achieving the statewide goal of ZNE through a hands-on, engaged and collaborative approach. Primary goals of the project include increasing market exposure of already-proven EE/DR/DG/ES technologies and addressing market barriers to ZNE in support of CA's Strategic...

After-market RTU controller and supply fan variable speed drive. Steps supply fan speed based upon stages of cooling/heating. Adjusts outside air damper for DCV. Provides Fault Detection and...

The Solar Decathlon is a DOE-sponsored international competition which challenges collegiate teams to design, build, and operate solar powered houses that are cost-effective and energy-efficient. These competition homes are highly visible and typically see more than a quarter of a million visitors....

Southern California Edison (SCE) is teaming up with a large training facility in Commerce, CA to retrofit their existing 140,000 SF commercial training facility towards Zero Net Energy (ZNE). SCE will act as the project's expert and lead on emerging DSM technologies, battery storage integration and...
