INTRODUCTION

The Commission is committed to using the best possible information in the estimation of savings

from measures installed through ratepayer funded energy efficiency programs. Information

contained within this manual supersedes information contained in earlier versions and is

effective as of the date specified.

HISTORY

In a series of Commission orders related to approving the portfolio of programs associated with

the Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard (EEPS), the Commission approved technical manuals

designed to provide a standardized, fair, and transparent approach for measuring program energy

savings. The five technical manuals approved between December 2008 and December 2009

covered a variety of measures applicable to the single-family, multi-family, and

commercial/industrial sectors. They were consolidated into one manual entitled, New York

Standard Approach for Estimating Energy Savings from Energy Efficiency Programs-

Residential, Multi-family, and Commercial/Industrial Measures (the Consolidated Technical

Resource Manual) dated October 15, 20102 with an effective date of January 1, 2011.

On December, 10, 2014, the Department of Public Service Staff (Staff), released the New York

Standard Approach for Estimating Energy Savings from Energy Efficiency Program Single and

Multi-Family Residential, and Commercial/Industrial Measures, Version 2 (Version 2)

incorporating all revisions between October 15, 2011 and September 30, 2014, with an effective

date of December 10, 2014.

Introduction


administrative purposes so that information effective January 1, 2018 is published in one

location.

This current release of the New York Standard Approach for Estimating Energy Savings from

Energy Efficiency Program Single and Multi-Family Residential, and Commercial/Industrial

Measures, Version 5.2 (Version 5.2) incorporates all revisions between July 1, 2017 and

December 31, 2017, with an effective date of January 1, 2018. Version 5.2 is filed for

administrative purpose so that information effective January 1, 2018 is published in one

location; Version 5.2 includes omissions found in the compiling of Q3-2017 Records-of-

Revision into version 5.1.

For a reference of historical changes to measures presented in the Technical Resource Manual

(TRM), each measure chapter includes a section titled Record of Revision. If the measure was

not revised between its original publication (in 2008-2009) and its publication in the

Consolidated Technical Resource Manual, the Revision Number is 0. If the measure was

added/revised between its original publication (in 2008-2009) and its publication in the

Consolidated Technical Manual, the Revision Number will correspond to the number of

changes/additions of that measure (ex. 1 or 2). Since the publication of the Consolidated

Technical Resource Manual, dated October 15, 2010, Staff has worked with the E2 Working

Group3 and its Technical Resource Manual/Measure Classification Lists Subcommittee to review

and approve proposed revisions utilizing the process established by Commission Order4. These

revisions have been documented through the issuance of Record of Revisions and the Revision

Number will correspond to the Revision Number assigned on its date of issue. These Revision

Numbers identifies the month and year of the Record of Revision in which the measure appeared

and includes an index number, which indicates the order in which that measure appeared in the

identified Record of Revision (e.g. Revision Number 1-17-5 refers to the fifth measure

appearing in the Record of Revision published in January 2017). Revisions made subsequent to

the release of Version 4 have been compiled for ease of reference in the Table of

Revisions/Changes located just before the Table of Contents in this manual. These revisions are

issued concurrent with Version 5.2.

SYSTEM PEAK DEMAND DEFINITION

System peak demand typically refers to the highest amount of electricity being consumed at any

one point in time across the entire system network. In most cases, the system network referred to

is the New York Control Area, managed by the New York Independent System Operator. It is

the maximum level of hourly demand during a specific period. The peak periods most

commonly identified are annual and seasonal (summer and winter.) 5 Peak coincident demand is

the demand of a measure that occurs at the same time as the system peak.

3 The E2 Working Group was formed on February 28, 2014 per the December 26, 2013 Commission Order in Case

07-M-0548 which directed the merger of the functions of the former Implementation Advisory Group (IAG) and the

Evaluation Advisory Group (EAG) and directed Staff to work with NYSERDA and the utilities to form an E2

Working Group. 4 Case 07-M-0548, Order Approving Modifications to the Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard (EEPS) Program to

Streamline and Increase Flexibility in Administration (issued June 20, 2011). 5 Glossary of Terms, Version 2.1, Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships, A project of the Regional Evaluation,

Measurement and Verification Forum, Prepared by Paul Horowitz PAH Associates, p.25.

Introduction


The Tech Manual equations are developed to estimate peak electricity savings (kW) along with

electricity consumption and gas consumption savings. The definition of the peak demand period

for conducting engineering simulations and estimating coincidence factors are as follows:

Electricity

According to the NYISO, system peaks generally occur during the hour ending at 5 pm on the

hottest non-holiday weekday. The peak day can occur in June, July, or August, depending on the

weather. Program Administrators (PAs) should calculate coincident peak demand savings based

on the hottest summer non-holiday weekday during the hour ending at 5pm.

Building energy simulation programs or other calculation techniques using the Typical

Meteorological Year version 3 (TMY3) data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory

(NREL) shall use the calendar year definition and day of the year as shown below:

City Date Temperature Calendar Year

Albany July 21 96 1995

Buffalo July 21 89 1995

Massena August 15 94 1997

NYC (LGA) July 13 98 1990

Syracuse July 4 97 2003

Binghamton August 14 93 1998

Poughkeepsie June 10 92 2005

Note: For peak demand simulations, the calendar year is defined so that the days above fall on a

non-holiday Friday. For Syracuse, this requires redefining the July 4th holiday.

Building energy simulation programs or other calculation techniques using different weather data

sets shall choose a coincident peak demand hour consistent with the NY ISO definition above.

Natural Gas

The peak gas definition is based on the program-induced change in the average daily gas flow in

which the distribution system, on average, reaches its pumping/consumption capacity such that

as the temperature falls lower (or the heating degree days go higher) gas consumption does not

increase. Setting the peak gas definition for this condition means that the gas peak is calculated

to reflect the decreased cubic feet of natural gas expected to not flow through the distribution

system during the 24-hour period as a result of the impacts of the gas energy efficiency program.

NATURAL GAS PEAK SAVINGS DEFINITION

Up State: The number of therms saved during a day, a 24 hour period starting at 10:00AM, in

which the average temperature is minus nine -9oF (-22.8 oC).

Down State: The number of therms saved during a day, a 24 hour period starting at 10:00AM, in

which the average temperature is zerooF (-17.8oC).

Introduction


COINCIDENCE FACTOR

For purposes used in this manual, the Coincidence Factor (CF) is expressed as a ratio with the

numerator being the simultaneous demand of a similar group of electrical appliances (measures)

within a specified period, to the sum of their individual maximum demands within the same

period.

ANCILLARY NON-GAS FOSSIL FUEL IMPACTS

The measures in this Manual that provide non-gas fuel interactions shall use the therm impact

equations, with the following conversion factors.

Fuel Heating value Conversion Factor

Propane 71,000 Btu/gal 1.41 gal per therm

#2 Fuel Oil 115,000 Btu/gal 0.87 gal per therm

#6 Fuel Oil 124,000 Btu/gal 0.81 gal per therm

ANNUAL/LIFE-CYCLE SAVINGS

The energy savings methodologies presented in this Manual are designed to provide first year

annual gross energy savings. Life cycle energy savings are calculated by multiplying first year

gross energy savings by the EUL.

NET TO GROSS ADJUSTMENTS

The savings approaches presented in this Manual provide gross energy saving estimates and

specify the approaches for obtaining those estimates. The New York Department of Public

Service policy specifies that savings projections used for predicting energy savings will be net

savings. To arrive at net savings the gross estimates presented in this Manual must be adjusted

to account for free riders and spillover.

Free rider adjustments erode the gross savings estimate by subtracting out the savings that would

have occurred without the programs incentive or influence. Spillover adjustments increase

savings by counting the additional savings that occur as a result of two possible conditions.

First, participants can replicate that same action (participant spillover) outside of the program

participation process, providing additional savings. Second, the program can influence the way

non-participants make energy saving decisions that result in additional savings not associated

with a specific participation event. Together, the subtraction of savings for free riders, plus the

addition of savings for spillover tend to offset each other to a significant degree. As a result, for

the purposes of estimating program impacts, the savings estimates presented in this Manual, or

the savings produced using the calculation approaches described in this Manual, must be

multiplied by 0.90 to arrive at an estimated net energy savings for each measure.

As program evaluations are completed, this factor will be adjusted up or down as appropriate by

program, for each measure included in this Manual. Over time, the adjustment factor will evolve

to be more accurate and will be focused on specific types of programs and delivery approaches.

To continue to standardize the net impact estimation approach at this time, a net to gross

conversion factor of 0.90 will continue to be applied to the gross saving estimates.

Introduction


EQUIVALENT FULL LOAD HOURS (EFLH), FOR HEATING OR COOLING

The equivalent hours that a measure would need to operate at its peak capacity in order to

consume its estimated annual kWh consumption (annual kWh/connected kW).6 The ratio of the

annual building energy (cooling or heating) consumed to the peak energy required is used to

calculate EFLH. The listing of heating and cooling Equivalent Full Load Hours for seven cities

in New York State can be found in Appendix G. Accordingly, the ratio for EFLH cooling is

shown below:

CLOTHES WASHER

Measure Description

A residential clothes washer is a consumer product designed to clean clothes, utilizing a water

solution of soap and/or detergent and mechanical agitation or other movement, and must be one

of the following classes: automatic clothes washers, semi-automatic clothes washers, and other

clothes washers. This measure addresses installation of top and front-loading residential clothes

washers with capacities greater than 1.6 ft3 and less than 6.0 ft3 meeting the minimum qualifying

efficiency standards established under the ENERGY STAR Program, effective March 7, 20157.

The washers are assumed to be located within the residential unit, not a commercial washer in a

common area laundry room. There is natural gas energy savings associated with the thorough

water removal from the clothes in the washer.

Integrated Modified Energy Factor, IMEF11 (ft3/kWh /cycle), is the energy performance metric

for ENERGY STAR certified residential clothes washers as of March 7, 2015.

IMEF is the quotient of the capacity of the clothes container, C, divided by the total clothes

washer energy consumption per cycle, with such energy consumption expressed as the sum of

the machine electrical energy consumption, M, the hot water energy consumption, E, the energy

required for removal of the remaining moisture in the wash load, D and the combined low-power

mode energy consumption, L. The higher the value, the more efficient the clothes washer is.12

Integrated Water Factor, IWF13 is the water performance metric for residential clothes washers

that allows the comparison of clothes washer water consumption independent of clothes washer

capacity. Manufacturers must submit their water consumption factors with their ENERGY

STAR certified residential clothes washers. IWF is the quotient of the total weighted per-cycle

water consumption for all wash cycles, QA, divided by the capacity of the clothes washer, C.

The lower the value, the more water efficient the clothes washer is14.

Compliance Efficiency from which Incentives are Calculated

For ENERGY STAR qualified clothes washer eligibility, only front and top-loading clothes

washers with capacities greater than 1.6 ft3 and less than 6.0 ft3; and are not defined as

Combination All-In One Washer-Dryers or Residential Clothes Washers with an Optional Dry

Cycle are eligible for ENERGY STAR Certification15. Additional qualifying product criteria

are provided in the table below in order to capture anticipated savings associated with higher

efficiency models. The highest efficiency Product Class that the qualifying unit is eligible for

should be used to establish savings from the Per Unit Savings table above.

CLOTHES DRYER

Measure Description

Residential clothes dryer meeting the criteria established under the Energy Star Program,

Version 1.0, effective January 1, 201519. Energy Star clothes dryers have a higher combined

energy factor (CEF), and save energy through a combination of more efficient drying and

reduced runtime of the drying cycle. More efficient drying is achieved through increased

insulation, modifying operating conditions, improving air circulation, and improved efficiency

of motors. Reduced dryer runtime is achieved through automatic termination of the dryer cycles

based on temperature and moisture sensors. Clothes dryers originally qualified for the Energy

Star label in May 2014. Clothes dryers that have earned this label are approximately 20% more

efficient than non-qualified models.20

The algorithms, inputs, and savings presented below assume a normal replacement scenario.

DEHUMIDIFIER

Measure Description

Residential stand-alone or whole-house dehumidifiers meeting the minimum qualifying

efficiency standards established under the Energy Star Program, Version 3.022. Dehumidifiers

have more efficient refrigeration coils, compressors, and fans than conventional models using

lesser energy to remove moisture in residential buildings. Dehumidifiers originally qualified for

the ENERGY STAR label in January 2001. Dehumidifiers that have earned this label are

approximately 15% more efficient than non-qualified models.

Method for Calculating Annual Energy and Peak Coincident Demand Savings


kWh = units (savings per unit as described below)

Electricity savings for capacities of typical Energy Star Dehumidifiers are shown below.

Savings for capacities not listed should be determined using the Savings Calculator for Energy

Star Qualified Appliances, (See reference 2). The Energy Star Dehumidifier Calculator

(Version 3.0) is used to create the energy savings tables.
