Analysis of Energy Efficiency Program Evaluation, Measurement, and Verification (EM&V) Reports: Residential Space Cooling and Commercial Lighting Measures

摘要

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) conducted a one-time inventory of evaluation, measurement and verification (EM&V) reports in 2013 to research general cost information in state-mandated energy efficiency program evaluations. Using the one-time inventory as a sampling frame for further analyses, the end-use services of residential space cooling and commercial lighting were selected for continued research and analysis. EIA targeted these end-use services because both end uses are prevalent services throughout the United States and for their popularity in both new and maturing energy efficiency incentive programs.
