> b\) Planned for Dallas, February 2000:

-   (S/C item a) Seminar "Existing Building Commissioning- Energy Saving
    Opportunities" - Chair Adam Hinge reported that this was lined for
    Seattle, but due to space constraints was allocated for Dallas. He
    has five speakers lined up.

-   (S/C item b) Seminar "Current Capabilities and Costs of Equipment
    for Measurement and Verification of Building Energy Savings",Chair
    Rich Mazzucchi reported that he hopes to have four speakers. He

    Several members felt that the standard needs to be revised since it
    is over 5 years old and that the forum is opportune. Larry
    Spielvogel volunteered to chair this forum.

-   (S/C item e). Forum "What Should ASHRAE Include in a Continuing
    Education Course on Energy Management". Chair Dick Pearson announced
    that he will develop a strawman curriculum and pass it on to
    Continuing education. Alternate titles and how to rank this activity

    Calibration Techniques: Issues and Applications" - Chair Mark
    Hydeman reported that one paper was already in and that there were
    three possibles. He felt that there was a 50/50 chance to get the
    completed packet in time to Atlanta.

    M/S (Reeves / Spielvogel) that TC discuss whether TC9.6 should
    approve the papers without even looking at the abstracts. CARRIED

    is. No discussion. CARRIED on an unanimous voice vote. Hydeman will
    keep Ish Sud informed about progress.

-   (S/C item b). Seminar "Understanding Energy Star building Labels".
    The chair Mike MacDonald was absent from the meeting and no one else
    had a proper status report to provide to the TC. John Cowan who had
    spoken to MacDonald reported that MacDonald would like to focus the
    talks to technical aspects. Spielvogel voiced the opinion that there
    were flaws in the Energy Star Program and that ASHRAE should not
    have a seminar on this program since it could give the impression
    that ASHRAE is endorsing it. Spielvogel also pointed out that ASHRAE
    does not promote any commercial program, and so this program which
    is a government one should also not be promoted. Discussion deferred
    to next meeting.

> Motion tabled: 8-3-0. Since motion was not dismissed, MacDonald can
> ask for a letter ballot later if he wishes.

Research Subcommittee Meeting Minutes

5:00 pm, June 21, 1999 in Seattle Washington

> Notes prepared by Cedric Trueman

1.  Attendees: Tueman, Akbari, Chase, Willson, Sud, Mazzucchi, Webster,
    Mixon, Alereza and Mark Case.

2.  Consideration of 1092- WS, Development of Procedures to Determine
    In-Stu Performance of Commonly Used HVAC Systems From Short-Term
    Tests.

It was moved/seconded (Akbari/Alereza) that TC9.6 Research S/C approve
1092-WS with the following revisions:

-   in 4(3)- requiring information on the costs required to carry out
    in-situ testing,

-   in 5.3- add on alternative to provide information on suitable data
    already available from previous work,

-   in 6- combine tasks 2 and 3 to correspond with section 3, and adjust
    level of effort split to 10%, 80% and 10%.

> Passed 8-0-0, CNV.

3.  Jim Willson presented information that TC 4.7 is planning a
    symposium with the working title" Better Inputs for Better Outputs".
    It will present available knowledge on the actual energy use of
    ancillary equipment, such as kitchen equipment, laboratory
    equipment, plug-in equipment of all types. They invite TC9.6 members
    and others to offer papers. Contact Jim Willson, TC 4.7, phone:
    317-506-1156 or email: <jimwill@indy.net>.

4.  Draft WS "Methodology Development to Determine Impacts of Interior
    Lighting Efficiency Improvements in Conditioned Buildings".

Further work on this WS has not occurred since Chicago. Nevertheless, it
was the opinion of several present that a lot of preliminary work has
been done by a number of teams, and that research to pull this work
together and to extend it would be worthwhile.

Action: Rich Mazzuchi (lead) and Taghi Alereza will develop this WS.

5.  Proposed reseach project (no WS) "Development of In-situ Performance
    for Unitary Equipment" was discussed. There was a feeling that this
    work might partly duplicate that defined in 1092-WS.

It was moved/seconded (Akbari/Chase) that TC 9.6 drop this project.
Passed 7-0-2, CNV.

# 

# 6. Proposed research project (draft one-pager has been prepared) "Alternate Model Evaluation and Case Studies for Utility Bill Analysis" was discussed. While there are some proprietary systems available, there is a need for better information on this subject in the open literature. It was agreed that a Research Topic Acceptance Request (RTAR) be developed for consideration in Dallas.

# 

# Action: Taghi Alereza (lead) and Rich Mazzucchi.

# 

# 7. Update of TC 9.6 Research Plan- A discussion of research project ideas took place. TC 9.6 is the cognizant TC for both GPC 14P, currently in public review, and Standard 90.1-1989R, which has been approved for publication by the SSPC (and is awaiting BOD approval). Research to provide better technical information to support ongoing development of these, and other, energy-related standards is seen as needed. All TC members, and others, are urged to submit any and all research ideas to Cedric Trueman, Research S/C Chair. Phone: 250-472-3521 or email: <ctrueman@ampsc.com>

# 

# 8. Jon Leber, of the California Energy Commission (CEC) informed the S/C that CEC has contacted ASHRAE about possible co-funding of research projects relating to energy conservation and environmental protection. The TC had also received a memo from Bill Seaton, ASHRAE Manager of research with this information. It was agreed that the TC should provide its total research plan to Bill Seaton.

Handbook Subcommittee Meeting Minutes

June 21, 1999 in Seattle Washington

Notes prepared by Richard Mazzucchi

The meeting was convened at 3:00 pm by Richard Mazzucchi. Kristen
Heinemeyer could not attend and asked that Richard chair the meeting.
Four members of the TC were in attendance (Mazzucchi, Akbari, Trueman
and Sud).

[Past Efforts.]{.underline} Richard informed the subcommittee that both
Chapters 34: Energy Management and 37: Building Energy Monitoring were
published in the 1999 Applications Handbook as revised. Richard
acknowledged the significant contributions of the members of this
committee and Kristen Heinemeyer in particular to get the revision
completed.

[Future Efforts.]{.underline} Cedric suggested that two individual be
identified at or before the next meeting to be the "champions" of each
of these chapters. The subcommittee chair might be one but should not be
expected to champion both since they are on the same revision schedule.
Rich Mazzucchi, the prior subcommittee agreed with this recommendation,
and felt that this had much to do with the last minute updates to the
Energy Management chapter last time around.

Handbook Committee Liaison. Ron Jarnagan of Monroe Facilities Management
is our new Handbook Committee Liaison. He appeared at the meeting and
indicated that his role is to assist in any way to revise the chapters
for the 2003 Applications Handbook, and that we are the experts expected
to ensure the technical sufficiency of the material.

The meeting was adjourned at 3:45 pm.

**[Attachment G: Standards Sub-Committee Meeting Minutes]{.underline}**

Standards Subcommittee Meeting Minutes

June 21, 1999 in Seattle Washington

Notes prepared by Bud Heiss

The meeting was convened at 2:00 pm by Bud Heiss. Four members of the TC
were in attendance (Heiss, Case, Syed Ali, and Mazzucchi)

## Topics

a)  Reaffirmation of Standard 100 -- Syed Ali

b)  Potential Programs with SSPC 90.1 -- Mark case

c)  Update of SSPC 90.2 Software -- Bud Heiss

d)  No TC comments were submitted by TC 9.6 -- Bud Heiss

## Standards Report

a)  Delaine Jones of GPC 18 has asked for TC 9.6 comments on the GPC18
    document

b)  90.2 Chair Harold Crowder asked of status request for update of 90.2
    software. As liason, I had contacted TC1.5 and coordinated
    communication between the TC and the SSPC. Following-up on this, I
    found that the SSPC90.2 representative had not followed up with
    TC1.5

c)  90.2 has won permission from standards committee which allows 2/3
    vote of committee members rather than 2/3 of all members for
    standards voting.

Performance Monitoring Subcommittee Meeting Minutes

June 20, 1999 in Seattle Washington

Notes prepared by Richard Mazzucchi

The meeting was convened at 5:00 pm by Richard Mazzucchi. Mike MacDonald
could not attend and asked that Richard chair the meeting and solicit a
new subcommittee chair. Nine members of the TC were in attendance
(Mazzucchi, Sud, Mixon, Syed Ali, Akbari, Cowan, Alereza, Trueman and
Sonderegger) along with six visitors. The visitors included Steve
Carlson of CDH Energy, Kris Kinney of Electric Eye in Singapore,
Satkartar Kalsa of LBNL, Gale Corson, and John Castelvecchi of
Evantage..

[Mission and Chair.]{.underline} Following introductions Rich Mazzucchi
informed the committee that we are looking for an energetic individual
to chair this subcommittee. No one immediately volunteered for this
opportunity. Some discussion transpired regarding the scope and mission
of the subcommittee and it was recommended that the TC develop such a
mission statement to reinvigorate the subcommittee.

[Handbook.]{.underline} Chapter 37: Building Energy Monitoring in the
1999 Applications Handbook has been printed with the revised material.
Many members of this subcommittee contributed significantly to this
revision and their contributions are hereby recognized.

[Program.]{.underline} Two seminars on Sunday morning #4: Uses of Short
Term Data to Determine Long Term Energy Performance, and #9: Update on
GPC-14P were well attended by approximately 100 persons and well
received based upon the quality and quantity of questions and a
preliminary review of the program evaluation forms. For Dallas Richard
Mazzucchi plans a seminar entitled "Capabilities and Costs of Equipment
for Measurement and Verification of Energy Savings in Buildings." He
plans for speakers on Energy Mangement Control Systems, Data Loggers,
Sensors, and Software. Mike MacDonald asked that his proposed Seminar on
"Understanding the Energy Star Label" originally planned for Dallas be
deferred until addition user experience with the label occurs.

[Building Performance Diagnostics Workshop.]{.underline} Satkartar
Khalsa and Kris Kinney provided their observations of this workshop
sponsored by PG&E and the State of California. The workshop was well
attended and included a large number of facility engineers. A formal
evaluation has not yet been concluded but preliminary indications are
the the workshop was a success, and that it will be repeated if
additional utility sponsors are identified. Proceeding are available at
the following web site: poet.lbl.gov/diagworkshop (might be
poet.lbnl.gov/diagworkshop).

The subcommittee meeting was adjourned at 6:30 pm.

Energy Management Subcommittee Meeting Minutes

June 20, 1999 in Seattle Washington

Notes prepared by Richard Mazzucchi

The meeting was convened at 3:00 pm by Richard Mazzucchi. Eight members
of the TC were in attendance (Mazzucchi, Sud, Pearson, Mixon, Case,
Akbari, Cowan, Hinge) along with four visitors. The visitors included
Furgeson and LeClair two officers from the Air Force Institute of
Technology, Schweidler from Trane and Laszlo Ehmo from Budapest.

Following introductions the chair informed the committee that the ASHRAE
Applications Handbook is now out with revised chapters 34: Energy
Management and 37: Building Energy Monitoring. Last minute revisions to
the Chapter 34 Tables were completed with the diligent efforts of Larry
Spielvogel. The subcommittee members were encouraged to attend the
Handbook committee meetings to begin a desired future rewrite of the
chapters.

[Seattle Program offerings.]{.underline} The two seminars on Sunday
morning #4: Uses of Short Term Data to Determine Long Term Energy
Performance, and #9: Update on GPC-14P were well attended by
approximately 100 persons and well received based upon the quality and
quantity of questions and a preliminary review of the program evaluation
forms.

[Special Publication based upon the SP-56/RP-669 efforts on improving
the energy assessment process.]{.underline} Dick Pearson distributed and
discussed an updated version of the publication. After extended
discussion the following motion was made: "The subcommittee chair shall
make a motion that TC9.6 approve this document to become a special
publication following final editorial revisions by the subcommittee.
Furthermore, the TC shall request that ASHRAE employ the services of a
technical editor to produce the final document with the approval of Dick
Pearson."

[Continuing Education Course on Energy Management.]{.underline} The
subcommittee discussed the status of efforts to have ASHRAE sponsor this
course. Dick Pearson informed the subcommittee that a detailed outline
of the course content was requested by ASHRAE. Such an outline was
developed by the subcommittee some time ago, but apparently did not make
it to the appropriate committee. Dick Pearson and Adam Hinge agreed to
review and refine this document and recommended that the TC sponsor the
following forum for Dallas: "What Should ASHRAE Include in a Continuing
Education Course on Energy Management." Dick Pearson will moderate.

[Research.]{.underline} The chair provided a brief update on the status
of GPC-14P and TRP-1004.

[New Business.]{.underline} We discussed the loss of focus of the
subcommittee and the need to improve our outreach and assessment of
other organizations involved with energy management. The chair will
distribute a copy of the subcommittee scope and purpose at and prior to
the next meeting.

The subcommittee meeting was adjourned at 5:00 pm.

**[Attachment J: Expressed Interest in TC 9.6
Sub-Committees]{.underline}**

**TO**: TC 9.6 Chair, Secretary, and Sub-Committee Chairs

**RE: Interest in TC 9.6 Sub-Committees**

At the TC 9.6 meeting on June 22, 1999 in Seattle, a list was circulated
around the room, and all TC 9.6 voting members and corresponding members
in attendance were asked to indicate which sub-committees they were
interested in serving on, and contributing to. The table on the next
page of this memo records the results of that exercise. It includes the
names of those who were present, and filled in the form. It does not
include the names of those on the roster who were not in attendance.

I would suggest that you should feel free to contact those who have
expressed interest in your particular sub-committee, and ask them to
assist you in carrying out sub-committee tasks. It should make
everyone's load a bit lighter, and should improve the output of this TC.

In the Member Class column of the table, the following abbreviations are
used:

> VM = voting member on 1999/2000 roster;
>
> CM = corresponding member on 1999/2000 roster;
>
> INT = not on committee roster, but interested in TC 9.6.

I hope this information is useful.

Cedric Trueman,

Vice-Chair and Research Sub-Comm. Chair.
