6 Residential Energy Efficiency Ratings Water Heaters DOE site-specific energy ratings are misleading. While DOE rates an electric appliance with a more efficient energy rating than a similar gas appliance, in reality that electric appliance consumes more source energy, pollutes more, and costs the consumer more to operate. Environmental Impact: 1.3 million tons of CO 2 e A 10% market shift in shipments/sales would reduce CO 2 e emissions by 1.3 million metric tons per year. Electric Resistance Natural Gas DOE NAECA Efficiency Rating 1 : Full-Fuel-Cycle Energy Consumption (MMBtu/yr): Energy Cost 2 /yr : CO 2 e* Emissions (metric tons/unit/yr): Average Installed Cost 4.95 EF 49.7 $ $ EF 26.5 $ $967 1 Energy factors (EF) based on a gallon storage water heaters of equivalent first hour rating 2 Energy Cost is based on 2014 DOE representative average unit costs for energy where electric rate is cents/kwh; gas rate is $11.28/MMBtu 4 New installations, from: Preliminary Technical Support Document: Energy Efficiency Program for Consumer Products, January 5, 2009 EF=Energy Factor * Includes greenhouse gas impact from unburned methane July 2014 version

While DOE rates an electric appliance with a more efficient energy rating than a similar gas appliance, in reality that electric appliance consumes more source energy, pollutes more, and costs the consumer more to operate. Environmental Impact: 131,000 tons of CO 2 e A 10% market shift on shipments/sales would reduce CO 2 e emissions by 131,000 tons per year. Electric Natural Gas Energy Factor Full-Fuel-Cycle Energy Consumption (MMBtu/yr): Energy Cost 1 /yr: CO 2 e* Emissions (metric tons/unit/yr): 10.9 EF 5.7 $ EF 3.8 $ Energy Cost is based on 2014 DOE representative average unit costs for energy where electric rate is cents/kwh; gas rate is $11.28/MMBtu * Includes greenhouse gas impact from unburned methane July 2014 version
11 DOE Direct Final Furnace Rule Promulgated on October 25, 2011 after DOE Determined that No Adverse Comments Received Effective Date was of New Minimum Efficiency Levels May 1, The DFR: Set a Minimum Efficiency of 90% AFUE for Gas Furnaces in the 30 Northern U. S. States Where the Population-Weighed Heating Requirements >/= 5,000 Heating Degree Days (HHD) A Regional Standard. Set a Minimum Efficiency Standard of 80% AFUE in the Remaining States. Other Impacts (e.g., standards for electric furnaces, etc.) Would Accrue But Are Not Discussed Here. 10

13 Implications for Non-Weatherized Residential Gas Furnaces A Ban of Gas Furnaces Currently Manufactured as Direct Replacements to Negative Pressure, Non-Condensing (Category I) Furnaces Ban Affects 30 Northern U. S. States Where the Population-Weighed Heating Requirements >/= 5,000 Heating Degree Days (HHD) A Regional Standard. Where Existing Category I Furnaces are Replaced, Incentivizes Installation of Heat Pumps as the Heating System Installation of Electric Furnaces as the Heating System in All Air Handling Systems Replacement of Gas-Fired Storage Water Heaters with Electric Water Heaters. Replacement Incentives Controlled by Installation Costs and Venting System Modification Costs. In New Construction and Rehabs, Also Incentivizes Installation of These Other Systems. 12

16 DOE Sued Over DFR for Furnaces In December 2011, DOE sued by the American Public Gas Association (APGA) over the DOE Regional Furnace Standard APGA argued DOE didn t follow proper procedures Regional Standard will cause fuel switching from natural gas to electric Based on the litigation, DOE issued statement that it would not enforce the furnace minimums that were to go into effect may 1, 2013 This past April, DOE and APGA received court approval on an agreement that requires DOE to reissue a new analysis on furnaces standards and come out with a revised Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in an open and transparent manor. Industry currently awaiting a DOE NOPR. On Sept. 22, DOE made public available, its analysis available for public review. DOE needs consider the unintended consequences of the Regional standard 15
17 Residential Water Heater Minimum Requirements What are the current requirements? Who is responsible for issuing new requirements? Who is responsible for enforcing new requirements? How often are requirements evaluated? What are the new requirements and when do they go into effect? 16
