EM&V Recommendations
Residential• Adopt Deemed Values for Common Products• Socket Surveys & Customer Interviews –
Satisfaction; Life; Persistence Commercial – Including Upstream
• Adopt Deemed Values for Common Products• Develop Algorithms – Lumen/Lumen with
Adjustment Factors• Participate in National/International Efforts

Knowledge Gaps
Typical Install Locations for Geographic Region
Heat Pump or Hybrid Operation
Savings Effects of HW Demand & Storage Sizing
EM&V Recommendations
Assure that Savings Protocols Include:
• Ambient Temperature Factors
• Sizing Considerations• Net Effects if Outdoor
Ducted Develop Deemed Values
