Carstens, Herman; Xia, Xiaohua; Yadavalli, Venkata S. Sarma (MDPI Publishing, 2018)Energy Measurement and Verification (M&V) aims to make inferences about the savings achieved in energy projects, given the data and other information at hand. Traditionally, a frequentist approach has been used to quantify ...

Van Wyk, Estelle; Yadavalli, Venkata S. Sarma; Carstens, Herman (Springer, 2013)Somalia, a country situated in Eastern Africa has been struggling between rival warlords and an inability to deal with famine. Diseases have resulted to the deaths of up to millions of people. According to a New York Times ...

Carstens, Herman; Xia, Xiaohua; Yadavalli, Venkata S. Sarma; Rajan, Arvind (Elsevier, 2017-09)A method is presented for reducing the required sample sizes for reporting energy savings with predetermined statistical accuracy in lighting retrofit measurement and verification projects, where the population of retrofitted ...

Carstens, Herman; Xia, Xiaohua; Yadavalli, Venkata S. Sarma (Elsevier, 2017-11)Measurement and Verification (M&V) is often required for energy efficiency or demand side management projects in buildings, to demonstrate that savings were in fact achieved. For projects where sampling has to be done, ...

Carstens, Herman; Xia, Xiaohua; Yadavalli, Venkata S. Sarma (Elsevier, 2017-02)Energy meters need to be calibrated for use in Measurement and Verification (M&V) projects. However, calibration can be prohibitively expensive and a ect project feasibility negatively. This study presents a novel low-cost ...

Carstens, Herman; Xia, Xiaohua; Yadavalli, Venkata S. Sarma (Elsevier, 2018-03)Measurement uncertainty is a key component in the overall uncertainty calculation for Measurement and Verification (M&V) projects. However, in some cases, it is reduced to outlier detection or basic uncertainty propagation ...
