Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Direct Expansion-Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems
Document Number: 2022-23185
Type: Rule
Date: 2022-11-01
Agency: Department of Energy
In this final rule, DOE is establishing energy conservation standards for direct expansion-dedicated outdoor air systems (``DX- DOASes'') that are of equivalent stringency as the minimum levels specified in the most recent publication of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (``ASHRAE'') Standard 90.1 ``Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings'' (``ASHRAE 90.1-2019'') when tested pursuant to the DOE test procedure for DX-DOASeswhich incorporates by reference the most recent applicable industry standard for this equipment. DOE has determined that it lacks clear and convincing evidence to adopt standards more stringent than the levels specified in ASHRAE 90.1-2019.
Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedure for Automatic Commercial Ice Makers
Document Number: 2022-22927
Type: Rule
Date: 2022-11-01
Agency: Department of Energy
In this final rule, the U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') amends the test procedure for automatic commercial ice makers to update incorporated references to the latest version of the industry standards; establish a relative humidity test condition; provide additional detail regarding certain test conditions, settings, setup requirements, and calculations; include a voluntary measurement of potable water use; clarify certification and reporting requirements; and add enforcement provisions. This final rule also provides additional detail to the DOE test procedure to improve the representativeness and repeatability of the current test procedure.

Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Consumer Furnace Fans
Document Number: 2022-23626
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2022-11-01
Agency: Department of Energy
The U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') announces the availability of the preliminary analysis it has conducted for purposes of evaluating the needed for amended energy conservation standards for consumer furnace fans, which is set forth in the Department's preliminary technical support document (``TSD'') for this rulemaking. DOE will hold a public meeting via webinar to discuss and receive comment on the preliminary analysis. The meeting will cover the analytical framework, models, and tools used to evaluate potential standards; the results of preliminary analyses performed by DOE; the potential energy conservation standard levels derived from these analyses (if DOE determines that proposed amendments are necessary); and other relevant issues. In addition, DOE encourages written comments on these subjects.
