Electronic Tariff Filings
The Commission is clarifying its regulations to make explicit that, consistent with Order No. 714 and its subsequent orders, statutory tariff and rate filings must be made electronically, according to the Commission's posted requirements for eTariff filings. Filings not made in proper electronic format will not become effective under the applicable statutes if the Commission fails to act by the proposed effective dates in the applicants' pleadings.
Physical Characterization of Smart and Grid-Connected Commercial and Residential Buildings End-Use Equipment and Appliances
This document announces an extension of the time period for submitting comments on the request for information, published on April 8, 2014, regarding the physical characterization of smart and grid- connected buildings end-use equipment and appliances. The comment period is extended to Monday, June 23, 2014. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is soliciting comment and data from the public on a variety of issues related to the physical characterization of smart and grid-connected commercial and residential buildings end-use equipment and appliances; including but not limited to processes and metrics for measurement, identification of grid and building services that can be provided, and identification of values and benefits of grid connectivity. DOE also welcomes written comments from the public on any subject relevant (including topics not raised in this notice).
Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedures for Dehumidifiers
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposes to revise its test procedures for dehumidifiers, by adding clarifications for equipment setup during testing and correcting the calculations of active mode energy use and an efficiency metric, integrated energy factor (IEF). The proposed amendments would also create a new appendix which would require certain active mode testing at a lower ambient temperature, add a measure of fan-only mode energy consumption in the IEF metric, and include testing methodology and measures of performance for whole-home dehumidifiers. Finally, DOE proposes to add clarifying definitions of covered products, amend the certification requirements, add verification instructions for the capacity measurement, and make certain editorial corrections.
