Measurement and Verification

We understand the role of multiple stakeholders to accelerate energy technologies and building performance. We work with program implementers to identify leverage points, real barriers to adoption and ensure that incentives are properly aligned.

​ASWB’s thought leadership and expertise on M&V, related-policy recommendations, smart meters/interval data analysis and over-generation risks provide critical support for leading utility and community energy implementers.

 Bridging the Gap Between Energy Policy and Practice

Statewide Program Improvements for Auto-DR Programs

In 2018, the CA IOUs asked ASWB to evaluate and develop strategies to improve customer uptake of the existing  “Auto-DR Express” and “FastTrack” programs, particularly among SMBs.

ASWB conducted a needs assessment, which included stakeholder interviews, analysis of ten years of Auto-DR participant data, and evaluation other DR pilots. The assessment resulted in three stages recommended solutions:
  1. Program streamlining and simplification for immediate adoption
  2. Long-term direct install strategy
  3. Deemed "dollar-per-device" load shed incentive proof of concept

Engineering Support for ​Central Water Heater Multifamily Building
Solutions

ASWB provides engineering support to DNV-GL in implementing the SoCalGas Central Water Heater Multifamily Building Solutions (CWHMBS) program.

This program seeks to reduce gas consumption at participating multifamily buildings by incentivizing packaged EE measures using an Normalized Metered Energy Consumption (NMEC) approach with post-install monitoring to quantify savings.

In this pilot program's first year, ASWB  surveyed and modeled 60 sites, identifying 62,000 therms of potential annual gas savings.

Auto-DR Incentive Program
​Project Verification Engineer

Since 2006, ASWB has served as the project verification engineer (PVE) for Auto-DR and commission-based installations for SCE, PG&E, and SDG&E.
​

Over the years, ASWB has reviewed and tested 195MW of automated load shed and more than 3,200 commercial and industrial sites. ​

​We also act as a trusted, vendor-neutral, equipment-agnostic advisor to customers and program implementers statewide.​
