Energy Conservation Standards for Metal Halide Lamp Fixtures: Public Meeting and Availability of the Preliminary Technical Support Document
Document Number: 2011-7585
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2011-04-01
Agency: Department of Energy
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) will hold a public meeting to discuss and receive comments on: the equipment classes that DOE plans to analyze for purposes of establishing energy conservation standards for metal halide lamp fixtures (MHLFs); the analytical framework, models, and tools that DOE is using to evaluate standards for this equipment; the results of preliminary analyses DOE performed for this equipment; and potential energy conservation standard levels derived from these analyses that DOE could consider for this equipment. DOE encourages written comments on these subjects. To inform interested parties and facilitate this process, DOE has prepared an agenda, a preliminary technical support document (TSD), and briefing materials, which are available at https://www1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/ appliancestandards/commercial/metalhalidelampfixtures.html.
Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products: Test Procedures for Residential Central Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps
Document Number: 2011-7437
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2011-04-01
Agency: Department of Energy
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE or the Department) proposes amendments to those it proposed to the DOE test procedures for residential central air conditioners and heat pumps released in a June 2010 notice of proposed rulemaking (June 2010 NOPR). The proposed amendments in this supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNOPR) would change the off-mode laboratory test steps and calculation algorithm to determine off-mode power consumption for residential central air conditioners and heat pumps, as well as change the requirements for selection and metering of the low-voltage transformer used when testing coil-only residential central air conditioners and heat pumps. Additionally, the amendments proposed today provide a method of calculation to determine the energy efficiency ratio (EER) during cooling mode steady-state tests for use as a regional metric. Finally, today's notice proposes amendments that would combine the two seasonal off-mode ratings of P1 and P2 for residential central air conditioners and heat pumps, as set forth in the June 2010 NOPR, to yield a single overall rating, PWOFF.
