Energy Conservation Program: Review of DOE's Analytic Methods for Setting Energy Conservation Standards; (14 page(s), in English)

Request for information and request for comments - The U.S. Department of Energy (''DOE'' or the ''Department'') requests comment regarding the assumptions, models, and methodologies that DOE uses in setting energy conservation standards for covered products and equipment. Relatedly, DOE also requests comments on the report summarizing the work conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (''NASEM'') Committee on Review of Methods for Setting Building and Equipment Performance Standards. DOE also welcomes the submission of data, peer-reviewed studies, and other relevant information related to how DOE might implement NASEM report recommendations and to DOE's analytical methodology for evaluating energy conservation standards in general.
