The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to amend its energy conservation standards for several classes of commercial heating, air-conditioning, and water-heating equipment. Pursuant to the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA), as amended, DOE must assess whether the uniform national standards for these covered equipment need to be updated each time the corresponding industry standard--the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)/Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) Standard 90.1 (ASHRAE Standard 90.1)--is amended, which most recently occurred on October 29, 2010.

This case relates to business firms (mostly small business) who sell and install residential air conditioning and heating equipment as a major part of their business. More specifically, this case analyzes "what" (the contents) is included in the contractors' proposals presented to sell and install this equipment. The objectives of this case study are as follows: (1) to show that these proposals lack clarity, completeness, and mutual comparability; (2) to suggest how to address these problems when writing such proposals; (3) to help students learn how to analyze business proposals; and (4) to show the process of selecting one proposal, out of many, dealing with such products. This case is very appropriate for students in an intro to business course. A teacher would require about an hour ...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposed to amend its energy conservation standards for several classes of commercial heating, air-conditioning, and water-heating equipment and to adopt new energy conservation standards for computer room air conditioners in a January 2012 notice of proposed rulemaking (January 2012 NOPR). The levels that DOE proposed to adopt were equivalent to the efficiency levels contained in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/ American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)/Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) Standard 90.1-2010 (ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2010). In addition, DOE proposed in the January 2012 NOPR to update the current Federal test procedures, or for certain equipment types adopt ne...
