[TRNSYS-users] Help Review Energy Efficiency Measure List for ASHRAE 1651-RP



For ASHRAE research project 1651-RP, we are trying to assemble a comprehensive list of energy efficiency measures that can be considered for new buildings covered by 90.1 except for renewables. The project is titled: "Development of Maximum Technically Achievable Energy Targets for Commercial Buildings (Ultra Low Energy Use Building Set)". Later we will be looking for the combination of measures that will result in the lowest possible energy consumption for each building type using EnergyPlus.

Attached is a spreadsheet that describes the 320 energy efficiency measures gathered to date along with a report describing how the spreadsheet was assembled. The report also recommends enhancements to EnergyPlus. After we finish compiling the list, we will be choosing a subset of measures to simulate.

Your help is requested to add measures that are missing from the "EEMs" tab of the spreadsheet. Column A, the name of the measure, and Column D, the description, are the most important. When you add measures, if possible, please also add a web or literature source that describes the measure on the "References" tab. Your input on any other portion of the spreadsheet is also welcome.

To learn more about how the list was assembled and the meaning of each column, a conference call is scheduled for Wednesday January 23 at 11am central. If you are interested in attending, please let me know and I will send you the connection information.

Please feel free forward this email and attachment to others who might be interested but please CC me when you do so I can keep track of who has received it.

If you have suggestions, it would be most helpful if you replied only to me with a revised version of the spreadsheet attached containing additional rows at the bottom of each tab with your input.

Please provide input no later than February 20, 2013.

Thank you for your help.

Jason
