The Project Team identified and described product categories eligible for evaluation through the Hub in a series of characterization reports that are organized by 9 technology sectors. Each report provides:
- An overview
- Characterization of energy benefits, non-energy benefits, differentiation, installation pathways and dependencies
- List of products
- Quantification of performance
- References
Electric Space Conditioning
Electric space conditioning provides heating and/or cooling without using fossil fuels.
Electric Water Heating
Electric water heaters heat water without the use of fossil fuels.
Commercial Refrigeration
Commercial refrigeration use a refrigeration cycle to create low temperatures suitable for storing refrigerated or frozen products.
Energy Management and Information Systems
Energy management and information systems use sensors and controls to collect and report building energy-related data, detect faults, and automate building systems.
Building Fenestration and Windows
Building fenestration and windows includes window and shading products that reduce heating and cooling loads in buildings.
Plug Load Products
Plug load products reduce the electricity used by devices that are plugged into wall outlets.
Lighting
Energy efficient lighting includes direct current lighting, lighting controls, light sources, and indoor lighting quality.
Agricultural Irrigation Systems
Agricultural irrigation systems include irrigation and pumping technologies that save electricity and water.
Energy Storage
Energy storage products store electrical (e.g. batteries) or thermal energy to manage electricity demand.
