CDH Energy Overview

We provide energy system and technology analysis.

We use both field monitoring and energy simulation skills to assess technologies, verify savings, assess markets, or determine application feasibility. Applications include: building system design options analysis, energy savings project feasibility studies, product assessment and technology research and demonstration.

CDH Energy Corp. was founded in 1994 to provide energy analysis services for utilities, government labs, research organizations, building owners, and industrial clients.

CDH Energy Corp. developed and is hosting a web-based realtime monitoring system for two UTC Power PureCell® 200 kW natural gas fuel cell powerplants for the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund (CCEF). The data is being collected in near real time (updated every five minutes) over a wireless broadband connection. Monitoring on one unit began in December 2008, and the second unit was recently brought online in late March 2009. Data for these sites and others are located on our data access page.

"HomePIC" Project Begins. A team lead by CDH Energy has been awarded a project that seeks to demonstrate that highly energy efficient design practices can be applied in moderately-priced homes. The Home Performance Improvement Challenge (HomePIC) team, which also includes the Syracuse Center for Excellence (COE) in Environmental and Energy Systems, Northeast Green Building Consulting, Camroden Associates, and Syracuse University BEESL, has been awarded a contract from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to work with builders to incorporate energy efficient design and construction practices into their homes. The goal is to achieve Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Scores of 93. The project was described in a February 21 newspaper article as well as a press release from the Syracuse COE.

CDH Energy Corp was recently awarded research project 1449-TRP by the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). The project will use building simulation to complete an energy efficiency and cost assessment of humidity control options for residential buildings. CDH teamed up with Building Science Corporation on a project to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of various technology options and HVAC design approaches that may be extensively applied in humid climates and other circumstances where latent loads comprise a larger-than-typical portion of the total cooling requirement.
