Abstract:

This course explores building optimization programs that focus on resource conservation and improving building operations across individual facilities and large campuses. These programs emphasize collaboration with facilities staff to identify and implement equipment repairs and system improvements that enhance ongoing building performance through three key modules of engagement: People, Process, and Performance. The session will review specific findings and real-world examples of equipment repairs, controls improvements, and occupant engagement initiatives that have successfully conserved resources and improved overall building performance. It will also examine how digital tools are used to track and manage findings, along with emerging methods to visualize savings opportunities while improving occupant comfort and system reliability.

Learning Outcomes:

  • People: Learn how engagement with facilities staff and building users increases understanding of building operations and facilitates sustainable, long-term change.
  • Process: Learn practical approaches to evaluating building systems and operations to identify low- and no-cost energy savings opportunities.
  • Performance: Learn how measurement of energy usage establishes a baseline, helps set performance goals, and allows for proactive monitoring and maintenance programs.
  • Engagement: Learn methods for documenting, tracking, and communicating energy savings opportunities to support long-term performance and occupant comfort
