Facility Energy Decision System (FEDS) Assessment Report for US Army Garrison, Japan - Honshu Installations

Abstract

to collect data for the FEDS assessment. During this visit, PNNL engineers collected energy-related information and data from over 51 representative buildings, central plants, and other energy systems for input into the FEDS model.

Renewable Energy Assessment Methodology for Japanese OCONUS Army Installations

“…In PNNL's FY09 FEDS assessment of Camp Zama area installations (Kora et al 2010), a factor of 1.31 was used as a global multiplier to adjust project costs from US levels to Japanese levels. In accordance with advice from Camp Zama personnel, that factor is still valid and was used for this assessment as well.…”

Renewable Energy Opportunities at the Kanto Installations, Japan

“…Per the methodology described in Renewable Energy Assessment Methodology for Japanese OCONUS Installations (Solana et al 2010), GSHPs were evaluated using the data from the 2009 Facility Energy Decision System (FEDS) assessment for the Kanto installations (Kora and Brown 2010). The FEDS building energy model was used to develop a representation of the Kanto installations based upon the 2009 PNNL data-gathering trip.…”
