status update on real-time meter installations
Posted by Morgan White on May 16, 2014
Robby Bauer, Dave Green, and Morgan Johnston discussed the status of the real-time energy meeter installations, from the SSC funded project. All of the Housing electrical meters have been installed, but the issue is about steam meters. Robby talked with the Housing plumber about the steam load. the water is a constant volume pump, and there is no control system available (other than opening and closing windows). with a constant flow pump, and without controls in every room, there is no way for students to have control over it.
If we choose to not put funds into real time steam meters in those buildings, where the students cannot influence the energy demand, we can get real-time electricity meters on all the buildings in the original prioritized list from the SSC.
