Projects
We see many opportunities to increase the value of distributed energy, energy efficiency and demand responsive technologies. ASWB is helping customers and partners evaluate, optimize and accelerate deployment of these available and emerging technologies. Our work is grounded in both practical solutions and leading edge innovation and supports market leaders such as:
  • Technology and policy innovators in regulated markets who are actively disrupting energy.
  • Commercial (small to large) enterprises seeking to cost effectively drive building performance.
  • Innovators including small/micro-business, diverse business owners seeking support to scale their energy technologies.
  • Community Energy Programs (CCAs, municipal utility, investor-owned) wanting to accelerate local distributed energy resources and optimize community energy level investments.
  • R&D and educational partners requiring support for early commercialization, testing and training of emerging technologies.

Featured Work
​


​Southern California Edison - Auto DR Incentives and
Measurement & Verification
​In nearly ten years of working on this program, ASWB has evaluated more than 3,500 commercial and industrial sites and conducted nearly 2,000 site visits. We performed measurement, verification and commission-based savings of ADR-enrolled sites, performed load shed calculations and administered incentives. 
​Using data collected from these sites, ASWB developed a DR market characterization study and training session for SCE's to further market development opportunities based on our unique insights on specific ADR technologies, savings attribution, and vendor participation. 
Antelope Valley Transit Authority – Bus Electrification
ASWB is a partner on an innovative pilot project developing wireless/inductive charging standards to support the eventual electrification of all Antelope Transit Valley Authority public transportation vehicles.

ASWB’s is developing charge and discharge schedules based on market pricing and creating a ME&V tool to  verify all data points to validate cost and savings and ensure that charge and discharge schedules are correctly aligned with market pricing.
Automated Demand Response Workforce Development 
​Funded by the California Energy Commission under the Electric Program Investment Charge (EPIC), ASWB is a project partner supporting the acceleration of ADR communications equipment installations by enrolling 200 small and medium buildings and public facilities in disadvantaged communities into utility demand response incentive programs and is also providing technical assistance to contractors to promote proper installation. 

​Drawing on observational and data insights, ASWB developed an ADR enablement training program for JTC instructors. Instrument panels, instructional programing, and coursework materials are provided at 200 sites for a variety of ADR enabled equipment including lighting and HVAC controls.
