ET22SWE0007 - HVAC TPM (2022)

The Program Team has established a robust Technology Priority Map (TPM) development process. TPMs will document the impact potential, research needs, and market readiness of all technologies across each of the end-use technology areas which will drive product ideation and inform Project selection. Strong, well-executed TPMs will help externally communicate the priorities of the Statewide Electric Emerging Technology Program, clearly define the central focus areas of the program, and assist with Project screening. The process will include the formation of the HVAC TPM Subject Matter Expert (SME) Team made up of Technical SMEs from the project team of Energy Solutions, VEIC, TRC, AESC, and UC Davis. The HVAC TPM SME Team will also form an external HVAC TPM Advisory Committee which will include representations from the CA IOU PAs as well as from emerging technology interests from the State of California, other regions, and national interests (e.g. DOE, National Labs, GSA). CalNEXT's 2022 TPM development began with the Whole Building TPM and continue to HVAC TPM starting in Q3, 2022. Development of the HVAC TPM is scheduled to conclude in late Q3/early Q4 of 2022.
