This field study is evaluating the potential of variable capacity heat pump (VCHP) systems that have the ability to use smart integrated controls, variable-speed drives, refrigerant piping, and heat recovery. This provides products that can be controlled by a smart thermostat with such attributes...

Evaluate energy management tool for campus, impacts of commissioning, interaction with grid and available distributed energy sources, and micro-grid...

Areas of Focus developed through EM&T DR Planning & Tactic study, and will help develop EM&T's Energy Storage Technology Road...

The objective of this pilot is to evaluate various over-generation mitigation strategies for water district applications. The pilot will help to determine what technologies and strategies will provide the most cost effective method of increasing useful load during Over-Generation events. This...

Demand Response Training for 2015 and...

A retrofit device for HVAC rooftop units that can respond to DR signals. The controller can either shut off the unit or it can limit or vary the speed of the indoor fan and...

After identifying a suitable data center test site, this sub-project Da will test that site’s DR capability and scale up to implementing DR in a real data center running real workloads. Tests will focus on three measures: 1) Software that reduces computer server demand (kW) in an automated DR...

This projects is a first phase of a proof of concept to identify partners to then further study the first/last mile opportunities for an EV bus with smart charging capabilities at business host...

This project aims to develop a roadmap for enabling technologies and customer outreach efforts that will effectively migrate existing and new automated DR capabilities to meet the new performance requirements identified in LBNL's Phase 2 DR Potential Study...

This project will evaluate automated demand response (ADR) solutions for use with lighting in small commercial applications (less than 10,000 square feet)to identify solutions for both retrofit and new construction applications and space types. Focus will be on historically underserved commercial...
