Research Imperatives
• CA goal: All new residential to be ZNE TDV by 2020 – What happens with large communities (5000+) with
PV and low energy use clustered on single feeders • Impact of TDV on PV size PV sizing
• How to communicate to buyers Builder Marketing
• Greater impact of behavioral loads Influence of plug loads
• Impact of +/- variability on feeders Impact on distribution feeders
• EMS technologies for balancing Enabling technologies for grid management
• Optimal integration (res. vs. comm.) Storage and Demand Response for distribution

Construct and market 50 ZNE homes
• Evaluate ZNE packages based on Zero Time Dependent Value (TDV) of energy
• Builder partner, Meritage Homes (US’s 8th largest builder) will develop a full subdivision using final, consensus package
• Monitor individual homes and the entire subdivision

ZNE Home Performance Evaluation & Monitoring
• Lack of component level data at individual homes with finer resolution • No defined load shape and highly variable gross and net loads
Utilize HEMS tools, California Building Energy Complaince Code (CBECC), NREL building energy
optimization tools, and Homer

EMS Command and Control • Evaluate and Demonstrate EMS Load
Balancing Capabilities: – Monitor and control loads, PV and
storage – Consumer preference – Communicate with community storage
• Evaluate and Demonstrate EMS Control and Integration of DR: – Develop operating strategies;
communicate to end-loads – Operational flexibility - Major end-loads capable (or
simulated to) respond to control signals - Occupant & System Priorities
Default behavioral setting for load management
Consumers set temperature limits –use for DR strategy

Compare storage location for system benefits
• Evaluate impact and cost effectiveness of storage located at residential level vs. neighborhood level
• Using Energy Storage Valuation Tool (ESVT), model services provided by both approaches and their benefit

3. Modeling approach and distribution impact analysis
16 © 2013 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.
Field data collection from ZNE community and feeder analysis
• A common situation with ZNE communities is a cluster of communities at ends of feeder lines (where there is open space)
• Create community level load shape models
• Impact/Value Studies of ZNE communities
• Use ZNE community data to evaluate impact with various feeder configurations
• Use feeder modeling results to guide utility guidelines for end use loads in ZNE buildings

Feeder Impact Analysis: Scenario Development, Analysis, Model Validation with Montioring Data
• 1000’s of feeders
• Clustering of feeder data characteristics
• Select smaller subset of feeders for detailed feeder analysis
Utilize OpenDSS for feeder analysis

Develop Utility Guidelines for ZNE Communities
• Clearly-defined technical requirements for integration of different DER components for wide scale adoption of ZNE communities
• Develop ZNE community guidebook and integration practices - Use monitoring data from the field trials to
evaluate & validate models - Use feeder modeling results to guide ZNE
deployment and integration within distribution
• Align project results with existing utility ZNE roadmaps
Instant variability
Voltage control at distribution
