This report presents the results of primary research conducted to better determine the potential for energy savings through the utilization of advanced power strips (APS) in commercial environments, and to determine appropriate methodologies for assessing the savings. The primary research conducted is part of a continuing effort to assess several emerging technologies and innovative program approaches by the Regional Evaluation, Monitoring and Verification Forum (EM&V Forum or Forum) managed by the Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships (NEEP).

These protocols are intended to facilitate the sharing and leveraging of metering study data for the following priority end-uses where metering is an important element of evaluation:

• Commercial lighting
• Commercial refrigeration
• Commercial HVAC
• Commercial Process
• Residential HVAC
• Residential Lighting

The protocols will help increase overall quality of evaluation and cost-effectiveness by leveraging information and data.

Building energy-efficiency codes have received considerable attention lately because of the energy-savings opportunities they present for utilities and other program adminstrators (PAs). By providing PAs with an incentive to support energy codes, their focus can move towards a productive engagement with code officials, builders, developers, contractors, architects, and the market.
