Specifications include, but are not limited to: Group 1: Analyze and Test Total Energy Consumption of Plug Load Devices to Support Codes and Standards for Non-covered Products. This research will analyze the devices not currently covered by California or US Standards, determine their total energy consumption (standby and active modes) and identify those with the most potential for consideration in future codes and standards. Group 2: Demonstrate the Integration of Smart Plug Load Controls and Building Energy Management Systems in Commercial Buildings. This research will demonstrate the integration of advanced smart plug load controls with an existing buildings energy management system to reduce building energy use and electrical loads, and where possible shift these loads to reduce carbon emissions. Group 3: Demonstrate Smart Exterior Solid-State Lighting in Low-Income or Disadvantaged Communities. This research will develop and demonstrate innovative designs and features for smart exterior LED luminaires to improve energy efficiency, reduce impact on the electricity grid, and maintain safety, performance and reliability.
