7071B: Intelligent Use of Energy in the Production of Cannabis in Greenhouses

Energy consumption in the production of cannabis in greenhouses is characterized by a large variation between the different producers. This is the result of differences in equipment, but even more indifferences in starting points for climate control. Cannabis is very sensitive to quality loss caused by ‘botrytis’, a fungal disease that destroys the flower. The production of cannabis in greenhouses has just recently started. That is why proper recipes to control the disease and produc

7014: Monitoring of Two Air Source Cold Climate Heat Pumps

Two Cold Climate Heat Pumps (CCHPs), invented by David Shaw and built by Nyle Special Products, were field tested in occupied houses in northern climates (Fargo, ND and Plymouth, NH). Tests were conducted in the homes of sponsoring utility company employees. Field testing was performed to determine whether the CCHPs operated as designed, and to examine whether the heat pumps

7064: Inventory and Energy Savings Estimates for Residential Self-Programmable Thermostats

The purpose of this study is to inform members of the Customer Energy Solutions Interest Group (CESIG) about the need and opportunities for learning thermostats pilot projects, which might then lead to full-scale demand-side management (DSM) programs. The investigator and a group of four project monitors—four utilities and DSM program administrators—worked conjointly on conducting the study from January to July 2014. The study focuses on the provinces in which the project monitors op

3801B: Guide to Estimate Benefits From Smart Grid Applications Fault Location Isolation and Service Restoration (FLISR) and Voltage/Var Optimization (VVO) - Phase II

The purpose of Phase 2 is to implement the approach developed in Phase 1 through the creation of a Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) model programmed in MS Excel VBA 2010. Prior to the development of the CBA model, a survey was conducted to estimate the capital and O&M costs of deploying Smart Grid technologies which enable various Fault Location Isolation and Service Restoration (FLISR) and Voltage/VAR Optimization (VVO) strategies, as well as to account for the benefits of these applications relativ

7056: Best Practices for Solid State Lighting and Adaptive Control Technologies for Street Lighting Utility Rates

The benefits to be gained from emergent solid state lighting and adaptive control technologies promise to be substantial over the coming decade. Light emitting diodes (LEDs) are gaining in popularity, especially for outdoor streetlights, primarily because of their vastly improved efficiencies and potential for long service life. Compared to the legacy streetlights of today, those benefits could translate into new value for outdoor streetlights owned by utilities.Utilities face four primary chall

3807: Network Modeling and Data Governance

Grid management software includes many simulation-based applications that run off a network model that must be cleaned, maintained, and managed on an ongoing basis. The objective of the project is to provide state of the art information on the management of network models, including providing insights as to how utilities use network models, how they are maintained, what data is critical and what is not essential, how the data is cleaned, and what the data requirements for different use cases are

7002: Effects of Voltage Pulse Width Modulation On Adjustable Speed Drive Motor's Insulation System Phase 1: Field Study

A literature review, presented in the first part of this study, provides an analysis of the current information concerning the degradation of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)-type adjustable speed drives. Twenty-two scientific papers, published between 1992 and 1998, are listed in the references. The physical aging mechanism of motor insulation under steep-front pulses is also described.The second part of the study focuses on the results of a survey conducted with 24 industrial users of adjustable s
