  4. Extensive Lab Facilities

  5. Applications Research

  6. Major Program Areas • Solar Thermal Heating System • Photovoltaics & Distributed Generation • Energy-Efficient Buildings • Hydrogen and Alternative Fuels • Education and Training

  7. Overview • Cost Effective Energy Conservation Project • Federal and State Standards Background • Energy Use of Appliances • Standards Discussion / Input

  8. Cost Effective Energy Conservation Project Intent is to: “provide technical, administrative and logistical support the Florida Building Commission and the Department of Community Affairs for energy conservation related tasks…directed by the Governor in Executive Order 07-127.”

  9. Cost Effective Energy Conservation Project Four project tasks: • Develop model ordinance(s) to promote participation in “Green Building” programs • Evaluate the standard for energy efficiency of the Florida Energy Code and national model codes and standards • Develop a public awareness website • Identify and review new or updated energy conservation standards for products.

  10. Cost Effective Energy Conservation Project Task 4: • “Identify efficiency improvements that could be anticipated by implementation of new standards consistent with the Governor’s Executive Order 07-127…” • “Identify potential energy efficiency standards for products and systems components that use electricity pursuant to…07-127…” • “…energy using products including, but not limited to, residential pool pumps, pool heaters, spas and commercial and residential appliances.”

  15. Florida Home Energy Use Parker, D., "Research Highlights from a Large Scale Residential Monitoring Study in a Hot Climate “ Florida Solar Energy Center, FSEC-pf-369-02, Jan. 01, 2002

  16. Florida Home Energy Use In 1979 Other = 28% of total In 2007 Other = 52% of total Fairey, P., J. Sonne, "Effectiveness of Florida's Residential Energy Code: 1979 - 2007“ Florida Solar Energy Center, FSEC-CR-1717-07, May. 15, 2007

  17. Florida Pool Energy Use 1999 utility study results showing pool electrical demand – 24% had pools with avg. use of 4,200 kWh/yr; 7% had electrically heated hot tubs with avg. use of 2,150 kWh/yr. Parker, D., "Research Highlights from a Large Scale Residential Monitoring Study in a Hot Climate “ Florida Solar Energy Center, FSEC-pf-369-02, Jan. 01, 2002

  18. Home “Other” Use Increasing Utility study results showing lighting, refrigerator and plug loads use increased by an average of 8.2 Wh/day or about 17% over the 1999 monitoring period.

  19. Standards Background • History of effective and successful state appliance and equipment efficiency standards starting in the 1970s (e.g. refrigerators) • Standards led to support for and enactment of national standards in 1987, 1988, 1992 and 2005 • Overall federal appliance and equipment efficiency standards projected to save 9.1% of total U.S. electricity use and reduce CO2emissions by 316 million metric tons in 2020 • Overall savings to consumers and businesses from these existing standards will approach $250 billion by 2020.

  20. Standards Selection • If a national standard exists, states can only enforce a tougher standard by first petitioning the U.S. DOE for a waiver • Thus our focus is on items not currently regulated and possibly those that DOE has not updated (transformer Final Rule 10/12/07) • Opportunities for greater saturation of efficient appliances or requirements not covered for that appliance.

  24. Standards Selection • Provide significant and very cost-effective energy savings for purchasers/users • Readily available products that meet the standard • Easily developed and implemented at low cost to the state (either another state or national voluntary standard is already in use elsewhere).
