Advancing Storage with Field Measurement & Verification

Measurement and Verification (M&V) of energy storage projects require unique techniques beyond the traditional objectives of:

  1. Verifying the equipment installed matches funding party records and program requirements.
  2. Measuring the benefits (e.g., bill savings, revenue, reduced operating costs) in sufficient detail, and to sufficient accuracy, to compare results to program management and customer expectations.
  3. Providing sufficient public information to assist market transformations with complete case studies, market studies, and highlighted publicity for vendors, programs and incentive initiatives.

Current trends in M&V involve a trust relationship between energy storage vendors and M&V firms to allow near real-time collection of data and customized reporting of results.  A win-win relationship can yield results for both the storage provider and the program funding party.  This presentation will outline the methods for collecting near-real-time information, determining the key performance indicators for energy storage performance and the relationship building necessary for maximum results reporting that benefits all parties.

Presented by Shawn Shaw of Cadmus, at the NY Battery and Energy Storage’s Annual Meeting and Conference on March 13-15 , 2018.
