Each component will have a reference implementation with a black box efficiency and cost rating.

  • Any efficiency improvement of at least 2% with no more than a 10% cost increase will automatically qualify to be the new reference standard.
  • Any cost reduction of at least 0.5% with no loss in efficiency will automatically qualify to be the new reference standard.
  • Higher-cost efficiency improvements will be accepted for review by the board, who will consider the cost impact on the success of the project.
  • Lower-cost improvements that result in a "statistically insignificant" efficiency loss will be accepted for review by the board.
