Advanced Mixed Mode Combustor for Hydrogen F-Class Retrofit (Final Report)

This objective of this project was to develop a retrofittable combustor module for the GE Vernova Operations LLC (GE Vernova, GEV) frame 7F gas turbine (GT) that would allow operation on blends of hydrogen in Natural Gas (NG) between 0% and 100%. The new system was to be part of a package that retained current cycle performance while limiting the increase in NOx emissions to the equivalent of 25ppm (parts per million by volume dry at 15% O2, ppmvd15) with consideration for the impact of hydrogen fuel on the O2 correction. The expectation was that with the addition of Axial Fuel Staging (AFS), turndown within emission compliance would be extended to below 20% GT load. The original project plan included three budget periods (BPs): BP1 spanning October 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024; BP2 spanning September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2025; and BP3 spanning January 1, 2026 through September 30, 2026. The project was terminated early by the DOE on October 10, 2025 about three months prior to the end of BP2. BP3 activities were therefore cancelled. The program was on track to meet all objectives prior to the DOE termination. This Final Report covers work completed during BP1 and BP2 prior to the program termination.

Pushing Green: Leveraging Home Energy Score to Promote Deep-Energy Retrofits in Portland, Oregon

In the United States, 39% of total energy is consumed by the building sector, 20% of which is attributed to residential buildings. Older homes, built before 1992 when the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Building Energy Codes Program was established, represent approximately 68% of residential building stock in the country and often have significant air leakage, inadequate insulation and inefficient heating & cooling systems. These older homes have long been the elephant in the room: how can programs effectively increase efficiency in all of the homes in need? Developed by DOE, the Home Energy Score was established to provide homeowners, buyers, and renters a comparable score measuring a home's energy use. Much like the MPG rating of automobiles, the Home Energy Score provides an overview of a residential building’s energy efficiency. In 2016, the City of Portland passed an ordinance requiring all residential properties to receive a Home Energy Score before being listed for sale, a mandate that was implemented January 1, 2018. Since 2018, more than 22,000 homes throughout the Portland Metro area have received Home Energy Scores (amounting to over 10% of Portland's single-family homes). This paper explores the sample of Home Energy Scores throughout Portland, including at the neighborhood level, identifies trends in efficiency measures, describes how the data has been used to date and proposes ways program administrators can use the Home Energy Score to increase the impact of energy efficiency programs on a city-scale.
