Demand Response of Residential HVAC

To ensure the continued availability of energy-efficient products, services and practices to Northwest consumers, the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) conducts exploratory work to identify, develop and advance promising energy efficiency technologies and opportunities. As part of these research efforts, NEEA contracted with Cadeo to understand the demand response (DR) potential of residential HVAC equipment and how NEEA staff should evaluate and compare new residential HVAC DR technologies with other customer owned DR technologies such as batteries and water heating.

The report provides a summary of current knowledge, relevant regulations and a review of relevant literature. In addition, the project developed a simple excel tool that can be used to compare different technologies on an “apples-to-apples” basis.
