SCE provided a Letter of Commitment (LOC) in support of LBNL’s proposal titled “A framework to characterize the performance of building components in providing flexible loads and building services using a hardware-in-the-loop approach” in response to the DOE’s BENEFIT FOA 0002090 solicitation,...

University of Maryland (Prime), EPRI, Sunamp, Heat Technologies, ORNL, Rheem is developing a technology consisting of a dual-purpose (heating and cooling) thermal battery with room temperature storage integrated with heat pump(s) (HP’s), for both residential and commercial applications. The thermal...

This project will develop high efficiency air-to-water heat pump technologies, and further develop low-cost, polymer water-to-air heat exchangers that have improved performance (effectiveness/pressure drop) at lower cost.  System will have a primary loop consisting of flammable low GWP refrigerants...

As part of SJV Pilot, SCE included a study to deploy HPWHs equipped with communication technology that will allow the water heater to be used as a grid-responsive heating technology element of the pilot to electrify homes and reduce emissions within the SJV. SCE hopes to gain insight into how...

Work with local refrigerated truck fleet to demonstrate energy demand profiles, costs and benefits. Use plug-in capabilities, truck/trailer mounted PV, batteries, to demonstrate environmental and cost benefits of using electric powered TRus as much as possible. Substitute R-404A refrigerant with...

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the impacts of an all-electric retrofit home community(s) on the local distribution...

2023 - EPRI SPA20016951 Accelerating Smart DER Deployment in Commercial Real Estate  EPRI Project ID: 1-118031 The state of California has identified vehicles as the largest source of Green House Gas(GHG) emissions. Traffic and congestion are a part of living and working in Southern California,...

As part of SJV Pilot, SCE included a study to deploy HPWHs equipped with communication technology that will allow the water heater to be used as a grid-responsive heating technology element of the pilot to electrify homes and reduce emissions within the SJV. SCE hopes to gain insight into how...

The overall goal of this project is to promote low GWP water heating technologies for central system applications typically found in multifamily and commercial buildings, increasing load shifting capabilities using central water heating systems, and developing best practice guides that simplify the...

Replace low pressure, saturated natural gas fired steam boilers, with two stage heat pump system. Provide first stage heat pump for high temperature hot water needs for sterilization and, and then use second stage for steam needs of the bakery. Use of advanced heat pumps with low GWP refrigerants...
