The Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) contracted with TRC Engineers, Inc. to evaluate NEEA’s participation in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Commercial Pre-rinse Spray Valve (CPSV) standard rulemaking process that concluded in 2016. The Final Rule that amended efficiency standards for spray valves required compliance by January 2019.
Conducted in the third and fourth quarters of 2020, this evaluation assesses NEEA’s activities to determine how impactful the combined efforts of NEEA and all other energy efficiency stakeholder’s activities will be on the resulting savings from CPSV standard adoption. TRC estimates that efficiency organizations' activities, including those NEEA engaged in, will be responsible for 4% of the total energy savings from the standard.
