Analysis of Emissions Calculators for the National Center of Excellence on Displaced Emission Reductions (CEDER)- 2008 Annual Report to the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-02)
In August 2004, the USEPA issued guidance on quantifying the air emission benefits from electric sector
energy efficiency and renewable energy. Because there was no clear best strategy, the EPA’s guidance
provided a ...
Development of a Residential Code-compliant Web-based Energy Efficiency Calculator for Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
Since 2001, Texas has been proactive in initiating clean air and energy efficiency-in buildings policies. The Texas Emissions Reduction Plan legislation of 2001 mandated statewide adoption of energy codes; created a 5% ...
A Methodology for Calculating Emissions Reductions from Renewable Energy Programs and Its Application to the Wind Farms in the Texas ERCOT Region
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2007-12)
Recently Texas Legislature required adding 5,880 MW of generating capacity from renewable energy technologies by 2015, and 500 MW from non-wind renewables. This legislation also required the Public Utility Commission (PUC) ...
Continuous Commissioning: A Valuable Partner to Retrofit Projects
(Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu)Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2001)
Continuous Commissioning (CC) or HVAC system
optimization is not only a valuable stand-alone energy
saving measure for commercial buildings, but it is also
an important escort solution to retrofit projects. Energy
