Studies show the contribution of lighting to electric bills has been reduced by more than 50 percent, leaving HVAC as the priority electrical consumption in most buildings. HVAC is more aligned with Demand Response needs because it is climate driven. But lighting can still be a true contributor to Demand Response. Here’s how.
Course Description
Learning Objectives
1. Background on the basics and differences of DR, DER, AutoDR, Peak
management. The key player ISOs, RTOs, CSPs, and Utilities along with protocols like OpenADR, SEP, and FSGIM.
2. Learn the codes and rating systems that either promote Traditional DR or
require DR related to Lighting 3. Understand how the success of the past 10 years of lighting consumption reduction efforts has significantly minimized lighting’s role as a Demand Response contributor compared to HVAC 4. Learn a new understanding of how Lighting’s linear, predictive, and instantaneous nature is the perfect complement to HVAC for traditional DR.
At the end of the this course, participants will be able to:

Demand Management for the Facility
• Peak Demand Management – Demand Management is reduction of Peak demand
– Very popular with larger facilities and campuses
– Indispensable if campus generates own power (not grid
dependent)
– Looking to keep the electricity close to Steady State
– Stability with multiple on site Renewable power sources
– Same response as DR = LOADSHED
– Major contributor to electric bill
Peak Demand Management Commercial Energy Bills Have a Demand
Charge
Listed on bill as KW not KWH
DEMAND Can be 25% to 50% of
the total
Demand = KW Consumption = KWH
PEAK DEMAND
AVERAGE CONSUMTION
$10 On-Peak Business hours
$2 Off-Peak Off hours
Consumption = KWH
Demand= KW

Lighting Less Important for Demand Actions
Large Office Building (200,000 sq ft)
0.79 W/sq ft LPD Uses 158KW at
any given moment
Lets Add controls Additional 30%
Now Uses 110.6KW
BTW, New proposal for T24 0.65 W/sq ft
10% of 110.6 KW = 11K 20% of 110.6 KW = 22K 30% of 110.6 KW = 33K
HOW much can you load shed in a already
Lighting maximized building ???
Remember 100 -150 KW minimum for DR programs

As simple as it gets… HVAC
Lighting
HVAC Management
• HVAC is not linear
– You are dealing with thermal mass (like a TRAIN)
– Temperature + humidity + ventilation
• HVAC is not as predictive
– In heated or cooled buildings, This is not the case with HVAC; that first Monday in April could be gloves and scarves or t-shirts and shorts.
HVAC
• HVAC balances Humidity / Temperature / Ventilation
HVAC Management
• HVAC has a recovery period exiting DR
– It can take hours to bring a building back to desired temperature after it has been shut off.
– Like a train slow to start and takes a while to stop
– If recovery too severe peak charges can occur
• Temp reduction can damage equipment that relies on continuous cooling.
• Complex systems often use both heating and cooling simultaneously.

HVAC Management
Benefits of Lighting as a Loadshed strategy • Lighting is Precise
– Light Power Density = Watt/Ft2
– Electrical Power in Watts = Voltage x Current
– Known Linear or Logarithmic
• Lighting is Responsive
– Current ∝ Illumination
• Lighting is predictive
– Very little change working day-to-working day
TIME Illumination Current
Benefits of Lighting as a Loadshed strategy • Lighting may have decreased in demand strategy but …..
Predictable The first Monday in April for a building’s lighting energy usage is virtually identical year-to-year if the space use has not changed.
Responsive Lighting is instantaneous to the human eye. As quick as you add current, lights will respond with illumination, and as you decrease current so will the light.
Precise (Linear or Logarithmic) Add current or decrease current, you change light proportionally. Providing exact control gives the user knowledge of the outcome for every action in advance

Benefits of Lighting as a Loadshed strategy
Non Intrusive Lighting curtailment (or increase) of 10, 20, or 30% can have minimal to no impact. The human eye compensates for lower light levels by allowing more light to enter the pupil.
Square Law Dimming
Non Intrusive Relies on the controllability benefit of Lighting for speed of change and granularity.
Sunset Quick Change
HVAC and Lighting Reaction Times
• 15 seconds – 60 seconds
– dim the lights.
– slow down fans under 25 HP
• 1 to 5 minutes
– start a generator
– suck the batteries from the EVs and dump the power the Microgrid.
• 15 – 30 minutes
– raise chiller setpoints,
– lower boiler setpoints.
– slow down big motors
– slow down pumps serving the boilers/chillers

Example: HVAC Mistake with VFD
Shed suppose to use VFD
– AHU covering 10000 sq ft with a 7500 CFM
– Using a 5 HP VFD ≈ 3.7 KW at full
– Shed speed by 10% ≈ 73% of full power = 1000W
Someone put the HOA switch in HAND so no control from BMS. Networked Lighting Controls can quickly make up for that mistake and not affect productivity
Lighting used to correct
– 10000 sq ft using LPD 0.82 = 8200 W
– Shed Lighting 12% ≈ 1000W

Some Definitions
Ratchet Charges Minimum billing demands based upon historical peak demands. For example, if the peak demand last summer was 500 kW and the rate design has a 50% ratchet, the minimum billing demand would be 250kW (500 kW times 50%) for the following eleven months, regardless of whether the actual demands were lower.
DRAS Demand Response Automation Server facilitates the customer response to a Demand Response program to the communicating client being the utility or other entity.
AutoDR Automated Demand Response from a utility or other entity to provide full automated DR connectivity to Customer facility
DER Distributed Energy Resources are smaller power sources as storage and advanced renewable technologies that can be aggregated to provide power necessary to meet regular demand.
Main Demand Response Protocols
http://smartgridstandardsmap.com/
Open Automated Demand Response (OpenADR ) open standard for Demand Response that allows electricity providers to communicate DR signals directly customers . Information exchange between utilities and energy management control systems Predominant DR communication standard for commercial facilities.
Smart Energy Profile(SEP ) open standard for Demand Response that allows electricity providers to communicate DR signals directly customers . Device communications in response to market signals. Predominant DR communication standard for residential

Points to take away
• Lighting’s response to Demand Response and Peak Demand Management are the same = Loadshed.
• DR and PDM are temporary curtailments of power not permanent energy efficiency strategies
• Demand Response programs can come from the Utility, CSP, or ISO/RTO
• DR Programs = more risk the more reward
• Peak Demand management can be 20-50% of a commercial energy bill
• Peak Charges are KW charges not KWH.
Points to take away
• Lighting has increased energy efficiency but decreased role in Demand Response.
• HVAC is dominant role in demand Response and Demand Management strategies
• HVAC is more difficult to control then lighting and less predictable because its connection to the weather.
• Lighting can still be used in Demand strategies to counter balance (tune) HVAC slow response and unpredictability with Predictability, Responsiveness, and Linearity.
