D EEMED M EASURE U PDATES May 3, 2011 Regional Technical Forum Presented by: Bob Tingleff SBW Consulting, Inc.
2
Measures updated 1. Residential CFLs 2. Residential showerheads 3. Network PC power management 4. Single-family weatherization 5. Single-family duct sealing 6. Single-family heat pump conversion 7. Single-family line voltage thermostats 8. Residential refrigerators 9. Also looked at commercial efficient computers – no measure recommended at this time 5/3/2011
3
Summary of Updates Residential CFLs Significant changes Network PC power management Integrated new studies – minor change in UES Residential showerheads Changed 2 parameters – significant changes in UES 4 Single Family SEEM measures Minor changes Residential refrigerators Clarified documentation 5/3/2011
4
Update Limitations UES only In some cases, cost and lifespan research is needed to complete workbooks Minor work is needed in procost – the cost effectiveness software – to accommodate Excel 2007 format 5/3/2011
5
Residential CFLs Based savings on study by KEMA of 2006-08 California programs Different room types than current measures Lower overall hours of operation (2.3 -> 1.9 average hours/day) Lower baseline watts per bulb (71 -> 61 W average) results in lower delta watts per bulb (52 -> 44 W average) 5/3/2011
6
Residential CFLs Converted retail measures into one overall average measure Eliminated by-room measures – information not available Eliminated “Complete dwelling unit” measure (These recommendations were not noted previously) 5/3/2011
7
Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 Today’s Standard Lamps (Baseline)EISA Effective Dates EISA’s Intended Replacement Lamps (New Baseline) 40 W incandescent(approx. 490 lumens)201429 W (310-749 lumens) 60 W incandescent(approx. 840 lumens)201443 W (750 – 1049) 75 W incandescent(approx. 1,190 lumens)201353 W (1050 – 1489) 100 W incandescent(approx. 1,690 lumens)201272 W (1490 – 2,600) 5/3/2011

Baseline Watts – market share 5/3/2011
9
Residential CFLs Accounted for Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) by adjusting the baseline for 2012 and 2013 Proposing single set of measures through 2013, using an average baseline for 2011, 2012, 2013 For the 2012 period, incandescent baseline is adjusted by replacing 85W – 150W with 72W (intended EISA replacement) Bulbs in this 100W range account for 12% of baseline For the 2013 period, baseline is adjusted by replacing 70W – 84W with 53W (intended EISA replacement) Bulbs in this 75W range account for 11% of the baseline 5/3/2011
12
UES Options As proposed – single measure group until Jan, 2014 Weighted average baseline for the entire period 3 measures – one for 2011, one for 2012, one for 2013 Single measure group, but only until Jan, 2013 Weighted average baseline of 2011, 2012 5/3/2011
13
Recommendations Research needed to establish costs for halogen baseline bulbs Set status to Deemed after completing cost- effectiveness work Sunset criteria Dec 31, 2013 5/3/2011
14
Network PC Power Management Incorporated results from Avista and Cadmus/PSE studies Updated parameters based on review of methodology and parameters Duty cycle – time spent in Active, Idle, Sleep, Off, Unplugged Power consumption of desktops, including Energy Star share Baseline and measure Power-Management-Enabled fractions Shift in duty cycle hours due to measure Desktops only – prior measure included laptops Updated Energy Star UEC from most recent shipment data Used DOE 2 simulations to compare Lighting vs. Power Management heating/cooling interaction factors 5/3/2011
15
Savings Difference without Interaction Factor 5/3/2011
16
Heating/Cooling Interaction Factors Are PC Power Management factors significantly different than lighting interaction factors? Used DOE 2.1e prototypes of commercial buildings in Seattle Large office K-12 School Compared lighting interaction factor with PC power management interaction factor Used RTF formulas to derive electric from gas or vice-versa; showing electric only 5/3/2011
19
Space Conditioning Conclusions Network PC Power Management interaction factors appear to be significantly different than lighting interaction factors Load shape, lighting-to-space heat ratio More study is needed to determine actual interaction factors Prototype definitions Sensitivity analysis May need multiple measures by building type 5/3/2011
20
Recommendations Heat/Cool interaction factors should be clarified before measure can be classified as Deemed 5/3/2011
21
Residential low-flow showerheads Added direct-install multi-family category Fewer occupants per shower Collapsed retail measures into single measure Eliminated primary vs. secondary shower distinction and electric vs. gas sub-measures (This was not noted as a recommendation earlier) Changed low-flow shower length to be the same as baseline Previous assumption was that low-flow showers were longer in duration Review of studies does not support that conclusion Changed mail-by-request install rate from 60% to 76% Average of earlier reported values of 93% (SCL), 59% (ETO), and 76% (2008 PSE survey of installation rates) 5/3/2011
23
Recommendations Research needed to establish costs for Multi- family Direct Install Set status to Deemed after cost-effectiveness work is completed Sunset criteria 5 years Review if Energy Star changes WaterSense definition (currently 2.0 gpm) Review if code changes (WA currently 2.5 gpm) Review on publication of any new low-flow shower study 5/3/2011
24
SF Weatherization Added cooling savings to FAF and zonal homes Previously only attributed to heat pumps and “average” heating system 40% of electrically heated homes are assumed to have cooling 22% of electrically heated homes have heat pumps => add 18% of cooling savings to FAF and zonal Clarified some documentation questions, especially source of heat pump assumptions (2005 NEEA heat pump report) 5/3/2011
25
UES Impact Minor shift in UES Cooling savings were less than 2% of heating savings 5/3/2011
26
Recommendation Return status to Deemed Sunset criteria Review based on analysis of residential energy use surveys (2012?) 5 year limit 5/3/2011
27
SF Duct Sealing Updated to latest version of SEEM inputs (includes new HP sizing) Corrected error in weightings – use square footage weightings for duct sealing rather than weatherization Ecotope clarified documentation questions, especially related to duct leakage assumptions New sources noted in workbook 5/3/2011
29
Recommendation Return status to Deemed Sunset criteria Review upon publication of housing stock survey (2012?) Update upon significant changes to SEEM model or inputs 5 year limit 5/3/2011
30
SF HP conversion On further review, no changes needed We had recommended a change to convert SEER 14.5 to SEER 14 This was already being done 5/3/2011
31
Recommendation Return status to Deemed Sunset criteria Review upon publication of housing stock survey (2012?) Update upon significant changes to SEEM model or inputs 5 year limit 5/3/2011
32
SF Line voltage thermostats Changed source of annual usage from Sunday model to fully weatherized latest SEEM model Reviewed and accepted 5% value for savings Withdrew recommendation to establish separate measure for new construction Model is of fully weatherized older home 5/3/2011
34
Recommendation Return status to Deemed Sunset criteria Review upon publication of housing stock survey (2012?) Review upon publication of any new thermostat study 5 year limit 5/3/2011
35
Residential Refrigerators Checked impact of updating refrigerator database from California Energy Commission Last update: July 2010 Unweighted average change: 1.9% increase in savings Documented procedure for update Clarified source of HVAC interaction factor – residential CFLs analysis Confirmed Energy Star market share assumption 5/3/2011
36
Recommendations Set status to Deemed Sunset criteria Original recommendation was to update UEC values annually from Energy Star and California Energy Commission database Change recommendation to every 2 years – July, 2012 5/3/2011
37
Commercial Efficient Computer Proposed measure Savings in the range 50 - 100 kWh/yr. for average Energy Star desktop 5/3/2011
38
Issues Needs an upstream delivery mechanism (NEEA); not a utility-driven measure Probably need up-to-date data on shipments Desktops are declining share of market Notebook definition in flux Currently notebooks have high Energy Star penetration (> 50%) 5/3/2011
39
Recommendations Discontinue RTF’s pursuit of this as a deemed measure until a delivery mechanism is proposed (likely from NEEA) 5/3/2011
