Motormaster+ allows users to quickly and easily list electric motors that meet the criteria for a particular application, and to compare the cost of an energy efficient motor to a standard motor. MotorMaster+ provides: price and performance information for over 10,000 currently available NEMA Design B motors; a Motor Inventory module; Field Measurement and Operating Data Storage repository; descriptor search and selective report writing capability; the ability to scan for motors which operate under abnormal or sub-optimal conditions; automatic motor load and efficiency estimation; the ability to interface with the MotorMaster+ motor performance database; analyzes rewinds, or changeouts of operable motors with energy efficient replacements; life cycle cost analysis; energy accounting, conservation savings assessment, and program evaluation. It is updated annually. For more information call: 800 862-2086 or connect to the software tools section on USDOE's Office of Industrial Technologies web site.
AIRMaster+ is a stand-alone Windows-based software tool used to analyze industrial compressed air systems. It is intended to enable auditors to model existing and future improved system operation, and evaluate savings from energy efficiency measures with relatively short payback periods. AIRMaster+ provides a systematic approach to assessing compressed air systems, analyzing collected data, and reporting results. Users include companies or distributors of compressed air equipment, compressor system auditors, industrial plant personnel, and utility representatives. Please order via e-mail from the EERE Information Center or call the Clearinghouse at 800 877-337-3463.

Software systems, designed, built, and maintained by WSU Energy Program staff, are currently in use to support Washington's utility fuel mix disclosure process. Each year, utilities in Washington report to their customers the mix of fuels used to generate the electricity supplied by the utility. The Energy Program plays a key role in this process. Our staff utilize the software systems we built to collect all the necessary data and derive each utility’s yearly fuel mix. This information is passed on to all the utilities in the state for dissemination to their customers.
This software tool performs a comprehensive simulation of existing and proposed district heating and cooling (DHC)/District Energy systems, including cogeneration and geothermal applications. HEATMAP provides extensive technical, economical, and air emission information about a DHC application that may be used to evaluate existing system performance, model alternative system strategies, or plan the development of a new project. It is a useful tool for: designers, planners, engineers, operators, facility or physical plant managers, and owners. A PowerPoint presentation of screens used in the Combined Heat and Power version of the software is available here. To place orders or obtain additional information call: Carolyn Roos of the WSU Energy Program at 360-956-2156.
The RELCOST Financial model, a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet template, is used for evaluating the financial viability of energy projects. It can be used to evaluate a variety of factors key to project success, such as the minimum power sales or carbon offset price, the optimum mix of equity and capital to attract investors, or sensitivity to incentives. Three methods of evaluating financial performance are provided by RELCOST: life cycle cost analysis, proforma statements, and financial ratios.
WATTSUN
WATTSUN was phased out June 2002. See Energy Codes for other tools.
The BallastMaster software is no longer available for purchase. If you would like more information about the product or are interested in financing an update of the software, please contact us: 800 373-2139
This program provides an electronic catalog of over 4600 fluorescent lighting lamp/ballast combinations along with software to help determine which products meet the criteria for a particular application. BALLASTMASTER also allows users to compare the cost of two alternative ballasts, taking into account the savings that result from better energy efficiency.
