  • NECAWORKS™ Screening Tool Annual Subscription

    Index Number: NECAWORKS

    NECAWORKS™ offers the fundamental tools and information links to "screen" a project. Using data supplied by you and your client, it determines a "Benefit/Cost Ratio", or "B/C Ratio" for projects you intend to bid. What is a Benefit/Cost Ratio? It is a calculation -- based upon your input of the projects's costs, energy and other applicable factors -- that serves as an indicator of the project's worthiness of "next step" decsion-making and should be used to rule out projects that have a low probability for success and highlight projects that may pass your client's return-on-investment objectives. (Subscription only available to NECA members)

  • Combining Charging Station Installation with Energy Efficiency Upgrades: An Emerging Market (F3301)

    Index Number: F3301

    Plug-in vehicles fall into one of two main categories: Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) or Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) sometimes referred to as Battery Electric Vehicle (BEVs). PEVs/BEVs are all-electric vehicles with no internal combustion engine (ICE). Collectively, all of these are more commonly referred to as Electric Vehicles (EVs). Both categories of electric vehicles differ from fossil fuel-powered vehicles in that they are able to consume electricity which could be generated from a wide range of sources, including fossil fuels, nuclear power, renewable sources (such as tidal, solar, or wind power) or any combination of these.
