Context

• 55% of 4 million households in PNW have electric water heaters (2011 RBSA SF Survey)

• 2.7 people in a house use 3,380 kWh/yr on site (2014 RBSA Metering Study)

• 3.38 MWh/yr x 2.2 million households / 8760 hrs/yr = 850 aMW of site electricity

• HPWHs have roughly an annual COP of 2• Site electric savings potential = 425 aMW

Subcommittee Summary: Consensus on Specifics

• Model calibration (10/21)– The HPWH model developed within SEEM is sufficiently calibrated for

the purposes of estimating a UES.• How to treat the impending federal water heater standard

(10/21)– Assume the federal standard goes into effect now (instead of April

2015). The staff resources to develop multiple measure sets is not worth the effort and could be cumbersome for programs.

• Whether to have an "any size" tank measure or separate small/large tank measures (10/21)– An "any size" measure based on the weighting of small and large

tanks in the region is appropriate. A relatively short sunset date (~1 year) should be used to monitor market shifts in average tank size.

11

Page 12: Residential Heat Pump Water Heaters UES Measure Update Proposal Regional Technical Forum November 18, 2014

Subcommittee Summary: Consensus on Specifics (continued)

• Valuing self-install labor at zero cost (10/21)– Defer this discussion to the broader RTF, since it relates to the Guidelines

and many measures in addition to HPWH.• HVAC interaction for interior installations (11/6)

– Provisionally assume a heating interaction factor of HCf = 65% for exhaust ducted and non-ducted.

– Pursue a dual research plan using a.) the PNNL lab homes and b.) a “paper study” which looks at the correlation between temperature depression and HCf.

• Baseline for large tanks impacted by federal standard (11/11 - 11/14 over email)– Collecting data on existing tank size is appropriate– An additional or supplemental survey may be used to elicit baseline

information• Where to include houses with DHPs (11/11 - 11/14 over email)

– Bundle DHPs with Heat Pumps in the measure identifier

HVAC Interaction Factor Research Options Considered

• Option 1: Additional study using PNNL lab homes (~$100k)– Will help provide a better understanding of the range of interaction factors by

testing four more HPWH locations throughout the lab home

• Option 2: “Paper study” (~$10k)– Low cost option using existing data and models to help bound interaction factor

• Option 3: Large scale, “flip-flop” field research study (~$1M)– The most comprehensive study, it would provide a direct output of the factor of

interest– Is such an expensive study worth it?

• Yes, because HPWH is a huge resource (~400 aMW) and our current uncertainty causes savings to vary by +/- 20%?

• Subcommittee recommends developing a research plan combining Options 1 and 2– Why? Options 1 and 2 are relatively low cost, yet they may bound the factor to

an acceptable level– If this turns out not to be the case, Option 3 is still on the table

Proposed Decision

“I ______ move the RTF:• Update the savings, cost, and life for the HPWH UES

measures as proposed and set the measure to Provisional category and Under Review status

• Direct staff to develop research plan focused on:1. HVAC interaction factor, using a combination of a PNNL lab homes

study and a paper study, as proposed; and2. Determining baseline for large tanks (>55 gal), using data on existing

tank size and possibly survey data.

• Set the sunset date to 4/2015, at which time the RTF will review the proposed research plan, and if approved, set the measure to Active status.”

Heating System Interaction• Applies only to interior ducted or non-ducted installations (i.e. garage and

unconditioned basement installs are excluded from this discussion)• Heat pump water heaters extract heat from the space where they are

installed. Some of that heat energy is replaced by the heating system.• We have observed that not every unit of energy removed from the air by

the HPWH is replaced by the heating system

Available Studies

• Field study of HPWH interaction factors was inconclusive• What we know from PNNL Lab Homes Study1

– Interaction factor for interior HPWH installations ≈ 49%– Interaction factor for ducted HPWH installations ≈ 44%– Study looked at one installation of a HPWH in a closet next to an

exterior wall

27 Logic Behind 65% Heating Interaction Assumption

• Subcommittee agreed that HVAC factor would differ for heated basements versus more central, “main house” locations

• Assume HVAC factor of 50% for heated basements, 75% for main house

• Weight these by RBSA saturation for electric tank locations (basement - 36.8%, main house – 63.2%)

• Weighted average ≈ 65%
