Energy AnalysisReview of Implications Jon McHugh, Sr. Project Mgr. The HESCHONG MAHONE GROUP forPacific Gas & Electric Co.Codes & Standards Program
Residential Energy Model • 1761 SF house with equal glazing distribution in each direction • Hourly energy values from TDV research version of MICROPAS • A/C and Heat Pump Efficiency adjusted with respect to ambient temperature • DHW loads allocated to 4 load profiles from PG&E load survey data • weekday vs. weekend • summer vs winter
Residential TDV Energy Costs • Hourly energy multiplied by hourly energy costs for all 8,760 hours of the year • 30 Year PV, 3% real discount rate • Three energy sources: • Electricity • Natural gas • Propane • Multiplies by hourly TDV costs for five CA climate zones: 3 (Oakland), 6 (Long Beach), 13 (Fresno), 14 (China Lake) 16 (Shasta)
Residential Conclusions • TDV costing increased the value of all efficiency measures considered • Electricity more expensive when very hot or very cold • Natural gas and propane more expensive in winter than summer • Benefit of switching to fuel less for propane than natural gas
Nonresidential Energy Results • Same energy results from earlier work (1999 Dollar Based Standards project) • 6 protoype buildings • Typical schedules for each building type (divergence from ACM rules) • DOE-2 model not EnergyPro • Hourly energy results multiplied by TDV energy costs for 8,760 h/yr • TDV costs: 15 year PV at 3% real discount rate
Nonresidential Conclusions • Results are dependent on building type • TDV results for TES inverse of traditional flat costing • Value of gas cooling is increased • Results for heating measures affected by Fuel type (Nat gas vs. Propane) • Greater value for A/C efficiency • Lighting LPD valuation sensitive to schedule (occupancy)
Residential TDV - further work • TDV duct efficiency • Refined water heater model • SEER to EIR conversion • Heat pump sizing - resistance strip contribution to winter peak • Thermostat schedules - especially for heat pumps
Nonresidential TDV - further work • ACM revisions • Equipment curves • SEER to EIR conversion based on curves • Occupancy specific schedules • Add TES and Gas Cooling • Add Photovoltaics and Solar Heating • Peer review of equipment curves • Obtain/develop part load curves • Revisit equipment specific curves • Occupancy sensors vs time clocks • Persistence of measures
