Refer to Energy Information Administration, Model Documentation Report: Residential Sector Demand Module of the National Energy Modeling System, DOE/EIA-M065(2001), (December 2000). [9] Among the explanations often mentioned for observed high average implicit discount rates are: market failures, (i.e., cases where incentives are not properly aligned for markets to result in purchases based on energy economics alone); unmeasured technology costs (i.e., extra costs of adoption which are not included or difficult to measure like employee down-time); characteristics of efficient technologies viewed as less desirable than their less efficient alternatives (such as equipment noise levels or lighting quality characteristics); and the risk inherent in making irreversible investment decisions. Examples of market failures/barriers include: decision makers having less than complete information, cases where energy equipment decisions are made by parties not responsible for energy bills (e.g., landlord/tenants, builders/home buyers), discount horizons which are truncated (which might be caused by mean occupancy times that are less than the simple payback time and that could possibly be classified as an information failure), and lack of appropriate credit vehicles for making efficiency investments, to name a few. The use of high implicit discount rates in NEMS merely recognizes that such rates are typically found to apply to energy-efficiency investments. [10] U.S. Bureau of Census, Series C25 Data from various years of publications. [11] The high technology assumptions are based on Energy Information Administration, Technology Forecast Updates-Residential and Commercial Building technologies-Advanced Adoption Case Arthur D. Little, Inc., September 1998). [12] Energy Information Administration, A Look at Commercial Buildings in 1995: Characteristics, Energy Consumption, and Energy Expenditures, DOE/EIA-0625(95), (Washington, DC, October 1998). [13]
The fuels accounted for by the commercial module are electricity, natural
gas, distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG),
coal, motor gasoline, and kerosene. In addition to these fuels the use
of solar energy is projected based on an exogenous forecast of projected
solar photovoltaic system installations under the Million Solar Roofs
program and the potential endogenous penetration of solar photovoltaic
systems and solar thermal water heaters. [14]
The end-use services in the commercial module are heating, cooling, water
heating, ventilation, cooking, lighting, refrigeration, PC and non-PC office
equipment and a category denoted other to account for all other minor end
uses. [15]
The 11 building categories are assembly, education, food sales, food services,
health care, lodging, large offices, small offices, mercantile/services,
warehouse and other. [16]
Minor end uses are modeled based on penetration rates and efficiency trends. [17]
The detailed documentation of the commercial module contains additional
details concerning model structure and operation. Refer to Energy Information
Administration, Model Documentation Report: Commercial Sector Demand Module
of the National Energy Modeling System, DOE/EIA M066(2001), (December 2000). [18]
The floorspace from the Macroeconomic Activity Model is based on the Data
Resources Incorporated (DRI) floorspace estimates which are approximately
15 percent lower than the estimate obtained from the CBECS used for the
Commercial module. The DRI forecast is developed using the F.W. Dodge data
on commercial floorspace. See F.W. Dodge, Building Stock Database Methodology
and 1991 Results, Construction Statistics and Forecasts, F.W. Dodge, McGraw-Hill. [19]
The commercial module performs attrition for 9 vintages of floorspace developed
from the CBECS 1995 stock estimate and historical floorspace additions
data from F.W. Dodge data. [20]
In the event that the computation of additions produce a negative value
for a specific building type, it is assumed to be zero. [21]
“Other office equipment” includes copiers, fax machines, typewriters, cash
registers, and other miscellaneous office equipment. A tenth category denoted
other includes equipment such as elevators, medical, and other laboratory
equipment, communications equipment, security equipment, and miscellaneous
electrical appliances. Commercial energy consumed outside of buildings
and for cogeneration is also included in the “other” category. [22]
Based on updated estimates using CBECS 1995 data and the methodology described
in Estimation of Energy End-Use Intensities, web site www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/tech_end_use.html. [23]
The proportion of equipment retiring is inversely related to the equipment
life. [24] Energy Information Administration, State Energy Data Report
1997, DOE/EIA-0214(97), (Washington, D.C., September 1999). [25] Energy Information Administration, Manufacturing
Consumption of Energy 1994, DOE/EIA-0512(94), (Washington, D.C., December
1997). [26] Aluminum is excluded due to its almost exclusive reliance
on electricity in the process and assembly component. [27] Energy Information Administration, Manufacturing
Consumption of Energy 1994, DOE/EIA-0512(94), (Washington, D.C., December
1997). [28] These assumptions are based in part on Arthur D. Little,
