Chapter 6 of the TSD provides details on the DOEs markup analysis for SEMs.
E. Energy Use Analysis The purpose of the energy use analysis is to determine the annual energy consumption of SEMs at different efficiency levels and to assess the energy savings potential of increased efficiency. The analysis estimates the range of energy use of SEMs in the field i.e., as they are actually used by consumers. The energy use analysis
provides the basis for other analyses DOE performed, particularly assessments of the energy savings and the savings in consumer operating costs that could result from adoption of amended or new standards.
The analysis focuses on the two representative units identified in the engineering analysis see section IV.C
for which engineering analysis results were obtained at levels at and above the baseline. Two additional representative
units were included to separately analyze consumers of integral i.e., with horsepower greater than or equal to 1
hp single-phase CSCR SEMs and fractional i.e., with horsepower less than 1 hp polyphase SEMs see Table IV7.24 For each representative unit, DOE determined the annual energy consumption value by multiplying the motor input power by the annual operating hours for a representative sample of motor consumers.

In response to the April 2020 NOPD, NEMA commented that the inputs used to characterize the energy use of SEMs were appropriate. NEMA, No. 22 at p.
3 Additionally, NEMA commented that improving SEM efficiency may not always result in overall equipment-level efficiency improvements. NEMA
commented that any modification to energy conservation standards or scope of regulated SEMs would require a revised analysis of the downstream impact of SEM design changes on OEM
devices and appliances, before
proceeding to modify energy savings methodology and estimates. NEMA, No. 22 at p. 5
As discussed previously, to account for motor size and weight limitations including in OEM devices and appliances, DOE analyzed both spaceconstrained and non-space-constrained scenarios. DOE did not modify the scope or amend the current energy conservation standards for this equipment. Chapter 7 of the TSD
provides details on the DOEs energy use analysis for SEMs.

1. Consumer Sample DOE used the same approach as in the April 2020 NOPD and created consumer samples for each representative unit, including three individual sectors:
Residential, commercial, and industrial.
DOE used the samples to determine SEM annual energy consumption as well as for conducting the LCC and PBP
analyses. Each consumer in the sample was assigned a sector and an application. DOE used data from the March 2010 Final Rule to establish distributions of SEMs by sector. Five

small electric motors final rule TSD, at https
www.regulations.gov/document?D=EERE-2007-BTSTD-0007-0036.
24 Similar to the approach used in the engineering analysis when selecting representative units, DOE

reviewed model counts from the manufacturer online catalog data to identify these additional units. DOE reviewed counts of CSCR, 4-poles small electric motors and polyphase, 4-poles, small electric motors models. For CSCR motors, the 1
horsepower value had the most counts and DOE

selected a unit at 1 horsepower. For polyphase motors, the 0.33, 0.5, and 0.75 horsepower values had the most counts and similar counts and DOE
selected a unit at 0.5 horsepower i.e. the mid-range of these horsepower values.
