LoCal Retreat Winter 2012

1. LoCal RetreatWinter 2012 David Culler, Randy Katz, Seth Sanders University of California, Berkeley

2. Presentation Outline • Retreat Purpose and Agenda • What is LoCal? • Project Progress and Status

3. UC Berkeley Project Team Industrial Collaborators Government Sponsors Friends Retreat Goals &Technology Transfer People Project Status Work in Progress Prototype Technology Early Access to Technology Promising Directions Reality Check Feedback

4. Sources and Loads Dispatchable Sources Non-Dispatchable Sources Oblivious Loads Aware Loads

5. Grid Economics Load Duration Curve Most expensive, least efficient energy Latency involved in bringing capacity on line PeakerCapacity Load-followingSupply IntermediateCapacity Demand Response: Incentivize reduced loads duringtimes of peak demand Demand Side Management: Shift demand to reduce peak loads Base Capacity (or probability of exceeding)

6. Grid Economics Load Duration Curve IncreasinglyVariable Supply(Renewables) with Reduced Base Supply Supply-following Loads Variable loads, supply aware, based on improved power proportionality, exploitable slack to shift/schedule (or probability of exceeding)

8. Retreat Purpose • Fifth LoCal Retreat • Alternate between Lake Tahoe in winter and Santa Cruz in summer • Project approaching home stretch • Much progress on energy efficient computing as well as building facilities • SDH as a testbed • Review recent progress • Direction for next generation project

15. Proposed Breakout Topics • What is the most effective energy (information) technology to be developed in the next decade that is likely to have the greatest impact on global warming? • What is the most effective way to transition LoCal technology developments? Open source, standardization, start-up commercialization? 3. How would you know a good Building OS if you programmed one? What are the figures of merit/attributes of a 21st Century Building OS? 4. Markets vs. Optimization--how should loads and supplies best be matched? 5. What new industries will be possible if high penetration renewables give us cheap but seasonal abundant energy? 6. How do you build & design a net zero grid for the moderate sized island?

16. Proposed Breakout Topics 7. How do we design for shiftable loads and to enhance power proportionality, particularly at the building/campus/societal scales? 8. What is slack, and how do define slack for a variety of loads? 9. What are useful kinds of energy data analytics, at the building, campus, and societal scales? What are the right figures of merit worth computing? How do you quantify sustainability, for example? 10. What is the minimum operating energy for a specific building, e.g., Soda Hall, and how close are we to achieving the minimum possible? 11. Making the energy case for datacenters: do operators care about energy efficiency? Maximizing utilization vs. energy savings. 12. Buildings vs. computers: which kind of a load should we focus on in the future? What are the high payoff opportunities in computing systems vs. the built environment?
