The 8th annual Net Zero 2021 Conference on net zero, zero carbon, and climate resilience will be a hybrid event scheduled for September 14-16 in Los Angeles. There will be Educational sessions, keynotes and...

The project is a 3 story Multi-family dwelling consisting of 46 units on an infill lot in Pomona, with an estimated construction cost of $6.1 million. The targeted occupants are low-income, with half the units designated for those that are homeless. It is planned to be built to LEED Platinum. The...

This project evaluated tunable white LED fixtures (troffers and pendants) with integrated controls, including daylight dimming, to determine visual and circadian performance and energy usage in commercial office space. The analysis culminated in information/recommendations for connected, tunable...

Compare this hybrid exhaust fan airflow and power consumption to other products in the exhaust fan category. A test apparatus will be built to test powered exhaust fans delivering required airflow and static. The fan will also be installed in the field to determine a "real world" performance and...

To understand customer perceptions and preferences of Real-Time-Pricing (RTP) rate structures, SCE/EPRI conducted an online survey via SCE business & residential customer panels in March 2021. The survey collected responses from 186 small business customers and 1,107 residential customers. This...

This project evaluates whether the introduction of high-resolution AMI-dependent household water information to single-family residential consumers results in water, electricity, or gas savings through direct or behavioral changes at the household.
