This project is the follow-up to the ETP assessment for LED Tube Replacement Lamps with an SFP that will provide measurement and verification of the installations through the limited release to the PRP area as a Custom...

The objective of this report is to calculate electric savings achieved by the fuel cell waste heat recovery absorber system installed at UCSD. The data collected from November 15th 2016 to September 11th 2017 from the fuel cell, absorber, and electric chillers were used. The data was then used to...

This report summarizes the conducted research, sources and findings. One finding is that available information is indeed not sufficiently detailed and up to date to accurately quantify power management software savings potential. A larger scale study remains nevertheless questionable, for several...
