GFO-23-501 – Quantifying Exposures to Indoor Air Pollutants in Multifamily Homes that Cook with Gas or Alternatives

Purpose: This research will support a field study to quantify and characterize residents’ exposure to indoor air pollutants generated from kitchen stoves (gas, electric, and induction) in multifamily homes. The purpose of this solicitation is to fund an applied research and development project that will support a field study to quantify and characterize residents’ exposure to indoor air pollutants generated from kitchen stoves (gas, electric, and induction) in multifamily homes. Research resulting from this solicitation will provide an empirically grounded framework for quantifying air pollutant exposures from kitchen ranges in varying multifamily housing conditions. This quantitative framework may, in turn, help guide future intervention policies such as building ventilation and electrification. The proposed research is intended to provide crucial support to the state’s efforts to minimize air pollutant impacts to its residents. The research responds to the 2021-2022 California Energy Commission’s Gas Research & Development (Gas R&D) Budget Plan research initiative “Quantify Exposures to Indoor Air Pollutants in Multifamily Homes that Cook with Gas or Alternatives”. Eligible Applicants: This solicitation is open to all public and private entities. Demonstration projects in this solicitation must be located in the service territory of a California gas Investor-Owned Utility (Gas IOU), which includes Pacific Gas and Electric Company, San Diego Gas & Electric Company, and Southern California Gas Company. All projects in this solicitation must benefit Gas IOU ratepayers. Eligible Geographies: Demonstration projects in this solicitation must be located in the service territory of a California gas Investor-Owned Utility (Gas IOU), which includes Pacific Gas and Electric Company, San Diego Gas & Electric Company, and Southern California Gas Company. All projects in this solicitation must benefit Gas IOU ratepayers. Matching Funding: Match funding is required in the amount of at least 5% minimum of the requested project funds.
