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...

Field evaluation of 5 hotel/motel sites retrofitting existing commercial pool pump with variable speed controls. This effort will be used in conjunction with the market characterization in phase 1 to develop a work paper to deem this measure. The measure is currently offered in programs as a custom...

Conduct a field survey of 150 randomly selected sites with commercial swimming pools to identify key market, performance specifications to assist in making VFD for commercial pool pumps a deemed...

Joint utility project that:  1)Estimates the number and types of labs in California; 2)Estimates the number and types of energy-consuming and water-consuming equipment used in California labs; 3)Assesses operational and behavioral opportunities for efficiencies in how laboratory equipment in...

After identifying a suitable data center test site, this sub-project Da will test that site’s DR capability and scale up to implementing DR in a real data center running real workloads. Tests will focus on three measures: 1) Software that reduces computer server demand (kW) in an automated DR...

The overall goal of this project was to assess the status of irrigation water and energy usage for an agricultural farm using closed-loop water management. Closed-loop water management uses soil moisture, hydraulics, and weather data to estimate crop water requirement and calculate irrigation...

Feasibility phase for a demonstration project with the objective is to link building energy retrofits with electric transportation system linking buildings to public transportation. To scale adoption of key technologies including energy efficiency, energy storage, distributed generation, charging...

Project SummaryDemonstrate and Assess High Performance Envelope strategies for commercial buildings and how they interact with Lighting, Daylighting and Office Equipment Loads to better T24 2013 Code compliance by...

The purpose of this laboratory evaluation is to understand where improvements to the ASTM standard can be made. A few commercially available preparation tables will be tested per the standard so the TTC team can see it in action and collect baseline data. After this, the tests will be performed...

The goal of this project is to test the performance of an earthworm-based wastewater treatment system known as Dynamic Aerobic Biofilter (BIDA®) or BioFiltro for its ability to reduce organic contaminants in agricultural waste and to measure the energy use to achieve these...
