Request for Proposals: Development of Hourly Profiles for Energy Efficiency Measures

August 31, 2018

The RTF is currently soliciting proposals for the development of hourly load profiles for select energy efficiency measures. The Regional Technical Forum (RTF) recently completed a review of all its hourly profiles used to estimate the capacity benefits provided by its energy efficiency unit energy savings (UES) measures. Based on that review, the RTF identified several priority hourly profiles that require updates to improve the reliability of RTF work.The work is anticipated to be completed over two different RTF Work Plan years, with some portion of the tasks occurring in the remainder of 2018, and the rest in 2019.
