EFFICIENCY

This section applies for any measure where there is a standard efficiency option. For example, variable frequency drives do not have a “standard efficiency” option, so you should skip this section for VFDs even though installing a VFD will result in energy savings. Heat recovery, lighting controls, and steam trap replacement also fall into this category. Circle “5” not applicable for the measure in the table below and skip to DAT3.

AQ1b. Why do you say that? [RECORD VERBATIM]

AQ3a. By what percentage do you think you increased or decreased the amount of <&MEASURE installed?



Calculate percent: abs([(amount installed) / (amount would have installed)] - 100%)

The response can be greater or less than 100 percent. Two examples:

  • Example 1. Organization installed 8, but would have installed 2 without the program. Change is 300 percent.

  • Example 2. Organization installed 4, would have installed 3 without the program. Change is 33 percent.



Record a positive % even if they decreased the amount that they installed.

  • Example 3. Organization installed 8 but would have installed 10 w/out the program. Change is 20 percent.

  • Example 4. Organization installed 4 but would have installed 6 without the program. Change is 33 percent.
