Energy Analysis

Deemed Calculation Method for Water Heat Savings

If the application of an electric water heater differs from the deflault values shown in D12 to D20, enter inputs that reflect the water heater tanks actual operation in yellow cells B12 to B20 to determine annual savings and Conservation & Renewable Resources Rate Discount Credit. The spreadsheet calculates the outputs in blue cells D27 to G36. Outputs in Row 33 are the calculated annual savings at site, compared to today's baseline and the 2004 baseline. Outputs in Row 34 are the calculated annual savings at site, adjusted to reflect impact on space heating of reducted standby losses, compared to today's baseline and the 2004 baseline. Outputs in Row 35 are the calculated annual savings at the generator busbar adjusted to reflect space heating interaction, compared to today's baseline and the 2004 baseline. Outputs in Row 36 are the calculated Conservation and Renewable Resource Rate Discount (C&R Discount), compared to today's baseline and the 2004 baseline.
