NEEA’s Emerging Technology and Product Management team had a strong start to 2023 with its exploration of efficient products. Q1 2023 highlights include the following:
- Published a supply side assessment study in January 2023, on central heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) for multifamily buildings to recognize the most effective mechanisms to transform the central HPWH market for multifamily applications.
- Also in January 2023, published a study of high-performance windows to understand the incremental cost of manufacturing them and what market interventions can help increase the availability and adoption of them.
- Concluded Phase 1 of the micro variable speed heat pump field study.
- Concluded the paired washer-dryer testing and published Version 2.0 of the NEEA Dryer Test Procedure.
- The U.S. Department of Energy (U.S. DOE) published a pre-publication final rule to adopt the ANSI/CTA-2037D test procedure, which NEEA played a critical role in developing.
Please reach out to anyone on the team with any questions or suggestions on NEEA’s emerging technology work. We’d love to hear from you.
