The purpose of this project is to verify the energy and water performance of packaged hybrid Roof Top Units (RTU) that combine both evaporative cooling technologies (direct and indirect) with standard vapor compression cooling. The field testing will consist of installing and evaluating the...

Conduct a field survey of 150 randomly selected sites with commercial swimming pools to identify key market, performance specifications to assist in making VFD for commercial pool pumps a deemed...

This project is aimed at understanding the actual EUL values of LED based products by performing a combination of field measurements, lab evaluation, and data compilation. This effort consists of (1) field measurements of deployed LED based lighting to determine their current performance and rate...

This project focuses on demonstrating residential DR by examining various treatments to three separate groups of homes: a community energy storage (CES) block, a ZNE block (that also uses energy storage), and an RESU block. All homes will receive communicating thermostats, energy information...

This project will identify the technical requirements needed to enhance the capabilities of a battery-based permanent load shift (PLS) to perform DR functionality, as well as investigate and define telemetry and control requirements. The project will also help identify and develop recommendations...

This project aims to evaluate the potential for customers with water pumping equipment to participate in an Ancillary Services DR...

This project is evaluating and testing small (4-kilowatt [kW]) automotive-grade advanced lithium-ion battery modules for use as a residential energy storage unit (RESU). The goal is to evaluate the potential of using in-home batteries during DR events or localized distribution constraints to...

This project performs laboratory testing of various smart appliances from different manufacturers to quantify the load curtailment potential of these appliances during DR events. Conducted in a controlled environment, these tests provide an opportunity to observe how smart appliances react to price...

The purpose of this project is to perform laboratory and field tests of commercially available pool pumps and pool pump controllers designed to enable curtailment of pool pump loads in response to DR event (curtailment) or pricing...

This project, a part of EPRI Subproject G, is selecting and testing a sample of these technologies, both in the lab and in the field, to determine the ability of these technologies to meet SCE’s demand-reduction...
