Work with campus engineering personnel to collect pertinent energy, temperature and fluid flow data for analysis. Identify all data sets and points that can effect Plant and Building efficiency and continued performance. Then determine the most appropriate BAS platform to pull all of the data...

In response to AB 802, the objective of this study is to develop a viable meter-based program offering for large commercial customers. The legislation and subsequent proceedings and decisions from the CPUC enable Program Administrators to design and implement energy efficiency programs that provide...

Proposition 39, the California Clean Energy Jobs Act of 2012 (“Prop 39”), provides up to $500 million per year to improve energy efficiency and increase the use of clean energy in public schools and community colleges. SCE desires (i) to assist Customer in finding solutions to reduce energy usage...

Optimize central plant efficiency for industrial refrigerated warehouses. Then analyze the data and determine control changes that will minimize compressor operation and maximize plant output. Install sensors through warehouse to understand air flow and thermal distribution within each refrigerated...

Study Replacement of R-22 and R-410 refrigeration systems with R-717 based system at Production Bakery. This study will look at available refrigeration systems, both packaged and field erected, the meet current California regulations regarding refrigerants and that are the most energy...

This project seeks to evaluate a new technology being developed by leading manufacturers, that employs a high-lift centrifugal vapor compression to address the large building air-source hydronic heating market. This product seeks to replace fossil fired boilers in large buildings that currently do...

In order to quantify the impacts of electric forklifts in outdoor applications and dispel the perception / misconception that electrics cannot perform in outside settings and adverse weather, EPRI intends to conduct electric outdoor forklift demonstrations at various locations. New learnings will...

This project seeks to understand the changing nature of refrigerant options in HVAC systems, as they move toward low global warming potential (GWP) compounds. It will explore and explain the drivers for the move to environmentally friendly refrigerants, and it will evaluate technologies that have...

The HVAC retrofit controller uses dual temperature sensors (supply air and return air) and a proprietary control algorithm with predictive analytics to improve operation of an HVAC system. This laboratory test project will explore energy efficiency potential of the HVAC retrofit controller, on a...

A primary goal of this project is to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of the advanced measures for all-electric ZNE dormitory style housing. A secondary objective is to study how the all-electric ZNE residential buildings performs using the all-electrical...
