Residential Building Stock Assessment - Metering

2 year whole-home metering study Detailed look at the determinants of energy use

Last major regional study (ELCAP) 25 years old Major changes in home energy use since No regional lighting study done until now Collect data for end use load shapes

Data analysis will provide key information for regional planning efforts and utility incentive programs Northwest Power and Conservation Council’s 7th

Power Plan4

Page 5: RBSA Metering Interim Presentation

High resolution accounting of electricity usage for at least 90% of all house end-uses

Detailed (5 minute) load shapes for all end uses of interest (heating, cooling, hot water, major appliances, plug loads)

25 heat pumps (control settings) Run time/gas usage for gas furnaces/water

heaters Airflow/external static pressure/2 stage data Daily remote access to all data (except lighting)

Residential Building Stock Assessment - Metering

Page 6: RBSA Metering Interim Presentation

Residential Building Stock Assessment

Assessment of base case residential building characteristics in the PNW

1456 total single family sites in RBSA (65% of sites single family and remainder mfd homes/apts)

Sample frame designed to ensure statistical significance in various subregions (Puget Sound, Western Oregon, Eastern Washington, etc.)

About 600 data fields collected in half day audit Physical audit (heat loss) Heating/cooling/hot water equipment survey Major appliance and plug load census Room by room lighting survey

About 35% of sites also tested for house/duct tightness

RBSA Metering Sample

Based on the RBSA sample Target single-family energy end-uses Targeted to provide detailed information on:

Major climate zones both heating and cooling Heating fuel type Electric heating system types

Contains both electricity and gas elements Sample recruited from RBSA sample frame and

designed to be integrated into that sample

Data Collection Structure

The dataset will provide an end use breakdown 5 minute accumulation of RMS energy—total service drop and

all sub-metered channels (both at panel and via wireless network)

5 minute averages of key temperatures 5 minute snapshots of service voltages, true power, power

factor (load shapes) Distinguishes between heating and cooling (heat pumps) Accumulates gas furnace and gas water heater run-time Tabulates lighting cycles; these data combined with fixture/bulb

data from whole-house lighting audit

Analytic Approach

Consolidation Fine-scale daily data is incredibly interesting

but can become quickly overwhelming. The solution is data consolidation. Data can be collapsed into desired time intervals:

hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly Data can be aggregated by end use across sites

Analytic Questions

With this dataset we hope to answer the following: How much energy does a device/category consume in one

day, week, month, year? Is there a seasonal dependence of a given load? What are the outdoor temperature dependencies of a given

load? What are the different end use load shapes?

Hourly load shapes over 8760 hours of the year for each device monitored Climate dependent load shapes
