This is a web-based, energy efficiency recommendation engine providing a customized “path to zero-net energy” for any existing home. Homeowners can use this technology to quickly check which energy efficiency options make most sense for their individual homes, to reduce their energy use and move...

Variable Speed Drives with Smart Controllers for Hydraulic Power units for metal working machines. Project will look at energy savings for this system compared to fixed speed unit as prime...

This project is investigating an energy management circuit breaker (EMCB) with several additional features. The EMCB is a single-or-double pole, thermal-magnetic circuit breaker commonly installed in low-voltage panelboards to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent,...

Laboratory test a combination pre-cooler and fan/compressor speed controller provided by a major manufacturer installed with WCEC control algorithms. Use laboratory-test data to refine algorithms and optimize controls as needed. Field test the Roof Top Unit optimization package using one RTU at a...

Cloud-based software incorporates historical customer energy usage and demand data, in any interval available (i.e., bi-monthly, monthly, hourly or sub-hourly), and combines this with weather data, to create predictive models of weather-normalized energy usage for every premise. These models can...

Wastewater aeration requires 50% of the energy use in wastewater treatment plants. A real-time analyzer that measures aeration efficiency was developed with CEC funding and has been demonstrated with SCE funding at several wastewater treatment plants over a one-year period. To achieve the full...

Product would be considered retrofit add on (REA). It is an evaporative pre-cooler for air cooled condensers of commercial/industrial refrigeration systems. By using this pre-cooler, the dry bulb temperature of the air entering the condenser is cooler by some amount related to the evaporative...

Research existing modeling tools used for estimating refrigeration system performance for supermarkets. Once the background study is completed, assemble and review results. Then recommend which tools are publicly accessible and recommend modifications to allow tool to estimate performance of...
