Project SummaryThis assessment evaluates residential swimming pool cleaner energy use and efficiency.For more information, please contact the sponsoring...

 Project SummaryThe Whole House Performance Pilot Project was conducted to generate data and evaluate a representative sample of 25 existing homes in various climate zones in Southern California. Enhanced energy audits and diagnostics testing using state-of-the art equipment were undertaken to...

The high concentration of lights in Hospital ORs leads to a significant amount of heat generated in a small space.  The cooling load of the OR can often drive the cooling provided to the entire hospital, with a significant amount of reheat needed in other areas of the hospital.  Removing...

Project SummaryA limited evaluation of two new heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) was conducted in the water heater laboratory at the PG&E San Ramon Technology Center. The objective of the testing was to investigate the operating characteristics of HPWHs in comparison with other types, and their...

Project SummaryThis project seeks to validate and establish demand response (DR) potential for commercial refrigeration, commercial lighting, residential building control, and commercial building control systems. This project addresses Phase 1 of potentially a multi-phase, multi-year effort to...

Project SummaryThis project seeks to validate and establish demand response (DR) potential of thirteen residential and commercial appliance categories. This project addresses Phase 1 of potentially a multi-phase, multi-year effort to evaluate the possible incorporation of DR into the California...

Project SummaryThe objective of this multi-phase project is to identify and demonstrate battery energy storage (BES) and communications technologies that enable small to mid-sized industrial and commercial customers to implement demand response (DR) strategies and thus increase their participation...

Project SummaryThis project seeks to establish demand response (DR) potential commercial building control systems (building controls). This project is part of a multi-phase, multi-year effort to evaluate the possible incorporation of DR regulations into the California Building Energy Efficiency...
