236 Metered
• Avista = 12 side-by-side metered [4 in place]
• Bonneville Power Administration RTU Pilots = 161 metered
• Energy Trust of Oregon = 94 serviced/13 metered
• Idaho Power = 9 metered
• Puget Sound Energy = 41 metered

Related RTU Activities• Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance
– HVAC contractor training– Regionwide RTU program support– Emerging Technology program
• Bonneville Power Administration– HVAC Emerging Technologies– Premium Ventilation Package– R&D
• California Activities – Western HVAC Performance Alliance– CEC PIER RTU FDD– HVAC EM&V Results

RTU Reality TV: ETO BAU Site Sample
• 3 HVAC units with economizers, 1 functional; 2 units did not have 2-stage controls
• Outside ventilation was disabled on 2 of 3 units
• None of the businesses had appropriate scheduling of HVAC
• Noticeable air leaks around roof curbs

2009 RTU Savings Results –What We Still Need To Know
RTUG Jan 2010
Why?• Programmatically simple• Supported by research to date• Enables Bonneville to gather more data to
inform regional program• Low risk (< 0.05 aMW)
True up based on:
• Annual metering of 54 RTUs [BPA-Idaho]• Summer of 2010 RTU data• Continued monitoring for persistence?

RTUG Jan 2010
Regional Results Database
• Results from all programs will be entered• Primary structure a directory tree with each
program results as a separate directory• Each directory: unit raw data template + results
summary for each unit + site/unit characteristics & service measures
• Summary data will include selected site/unit characteristics
• Potential integration with other regional databases

2009 PNW RTU Outcomes
• Critical Body of Knowledge being assembled
• Measurement & analysis continuing
• Results database being established for additional analysis
• Provisional Deemed Savings Potential
RTUG Jan 2010
RTUG Next Steps - 2010• Field Protocol/Provisional Savings meeting > January 19
• Recommendations to RTF > February 2
• Bonneville Pilot Development > February-May
• Establish results database; final design review by RTUG, RTF, others > January-March
• Continue to review Bonneville and other in-region and out-of-region sources of data analysis/results > Ongoing
• Identify additional analyses > January-September
• 12-month data analysis > June-September
