TCAAP Energy Integration Resiliency Framework <br />Policy White Paper – Energy Efficiency Strategies (Demand-Side Management) <br /> 31 <br />6.2.2. Energy and Water Submetering <br />Submetering can be used to measure separate energy uses (for example, lights or cooling) beyond the <br />individual customer or building level in order to enhance feedback and management of efficiency <br />opportunities. This management can occur in real-time, depending on the type of metering and <br />communication. Water submetering is also included as many of the same savings benefits apply, and <br />feedback to consumers could easily be bundled with energy. Reducing water pumping and treatment <br />has environmental and energy savings benefits as well. This type of advanced infrastructure, like <br />advanced metering, would be beneficial to enable many of the energy efficiency strategies described <br />below, such as continuous commissioning or customer feedback programs. <br />Precedents <br />San Diego Advanced Metering: San Diego Gas & Electric has implemented advanced metering across <br />its entire service territory. Through an opt-out program they have installed 57,000 programmable <br />controllable thermostats in homes and have reported over 98% customer satisfactory. This program <br />has become a model for utility advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) programs across the country <br />and prepares building and customers for possible future performance -based regulation.5 <br />New Orleans Advanced Metering: The City of New Orleans provided match funding when Entergy New <br />Orleans received a $5 million US Department of Energy smart grid grant. Starting in 2011, Entergy <br />piloted an opt-in AMI program that outfitted customers with smart meters, online portals, in-home <br />displays, and programmable thermostats. The utility and city partnered to garner strong community <br />participation and engaged customers in a variety of training sessions. Overall, 58% - 67% of customers <br />saved energy and at the end of the program 96% of participants wanted to be permanently involved in <br />the program. On average, users reduced their total energy consumption by 6% - 8%. <br />6.3. Building Co-Location <br />Building co-location is a demand-side management strategy that is uniquely appropriate for greenfield <br />and large infill development. By considering the daily or seasonal timing of different types of energy <br />use, site developers can facilitate buildings with complementary load schedules. Buildings with <br />complementary heating, cooling, and hot water needs, or with inverse demand schedules, can be <br />clustered to optimize use of energy resources. The primary benefit is more efficient utilization of small <br />scale, onsite energy supply systems such as distributed solar or CHP. <br /> <br />5 Spotlight on Advanced Metering Infrastructure.
