Prepare and maintain a statewide Technical Reference Manual (TRM) Provide feedback to the PUCT, utilities, and other stakeholders on program portfolio performance. 9. What is a TRM? The savings from many energy efficiency measures can be estimated fairly reliably through engineering algorithms. · IL-TRM Version Volume 1: Overview and User Guide (Final) IL-TRM Version Volume 2: Commercial and Industrial Measures (Final) IL-TRM Version Volume 3: Residential Measures (Final) IL-TRM Version Volume 4: Cross-Cutting Measures and Attachments (Final) IL-TRM Version dated Octo (docx). Efficiency Vermont Technical Reference Manual Introduction Purpose of Technical Reference Manual This Technical Reference Manual (TRM) provides descriptions of energy efficiency measures implemented by Efficiency Vermont’s programs together .
Technical and management assistance in verifying Efficiency Vermont's annual savings and total resource benefit claims, and related activities, such as providing expert assistance reviewing technical reference manual (TRM) measure characterizations, verification of Burlington Electric Department's savings claims. Incremental cost and measure life assumptions came from technical documents supporting U.S. Department of Energy rule-makings on minimum federal efficiency standards, NYSERDA data, information from retailers, the Efficiency Vermont technical reference manual and professional judgment. Market Size. • The cost-effectiveness of each of the EEUs' programs, including Efficiency Vermont's, BED's, and VGS's; • The reported energy and capacity savings achieved by Efficiency Vermont, BED, and VGS; • The Technical Reference Manual (which is a basis for the EEUs' savings claims) and the process for managing and updating it;.
Technical Reference Manuals (TRMs) typically include “Deemed Savings” for these energy efficiency measures at two levels—Deemed and Partially Deemed. Deemed measures are fairly straightforward calculations with stipulated savings values and/or inputs to engineering algorithms. multiplying by 1 plus the appropriate line loss factor. See the Efficiency Vermont Technical Reference Manual for further detail on the application of line loss, free riders, and spillover adjustments. The line loss factors do not vary by measure, but by costing period, and are listed in Table 1. One of the key components of the energy efficiency implementation and evaluation processes in Vermont is the Efficiency Vermont Technical Reference User Manual (TRM). The TRM contains a substantial list of measures with methods on how to calculate energy savings for each measure.
