SUMMARY:Retro-commissioning in K-12 Schools
DESCRIPTION:K-12 school superintendents and facility staff face many challenges to operating their buildings efficiently and effectively. Common challenges include funding and staffing issues. Deferred maintenance\, antiquated systems\, or even poorly operating modern systems can have a direct impact on learning outcomes. Retro-commissioning (RCx) is a process that optimizes building system performance by defining current operating requirements and identifying root causes of problems and energy saving opportunities. An RCx report can be useful evidence in securing funding for needed upgrades or efficiency measures. \nIn partnership with Puget Sound Energy\, the Smart Buildings Center brings you an engaging webinar exploring concepts of RCx specific to K-12 schools and the unique characteristics this sector brings. In this information session and panel discussion\, O&M professionals working in the K-12 sector will share their experience with RCx initiatives. Attendees will come away with practical resources for implementing RCx programs in their own facilities and will learn how utility incentive programs such as Strategic Energy Management (SEM) can help with funding and implementation.

SUMMARY:SBC Executive Forum: Building Electrification & Grid-Interactive Efficient Buildings
DESCRIPTION:Certainly\, increasing building electrification (BE) is a critical step toward decarbonization of the built environment. The specific steps to achieve BE are somewhat less certain. Replacing carbon-emitting fossil fuel appliances with clean electric sources is the easy answer\, but as usual there are lots of complexities in making this happen in both commercial and residential buildings – new and existing. During the Smart Buildings Exchange (SBX) 2021 virtual conference\, two technical sessions on grid-interactive efficient buildings (GEBs) highlighted the potential values of deploying dynamic two-way communication capacity in buildings to both the electric utility system and building owners and managers. This two-way communication can automate load shifting\, shedding\, and modulating and improve a utility’s capacity\, resiliency\, and cost. Building on the SBX 2021 conversations\, this two-part Executive Forum discussion will link the efforts around BE to successful widespread deployment of GEBs.

SUMMARY:The Future of Building Occupancy
DESCRIPTION:Safety\, Efficiency and Sustainability in a Post-COVID World \nThe Smart Buildings Center invites you to attend this important discussion on the future of building occupancy. As you may or may not know\, the #1 emitter of greenhouse gas emissions is not industry or transportation\, its buildings\, representing 39% of all global GhG. Furthermore\, almost 75% of those building-based emissions come from day-to-day operations – heating\, cooling\, ventilating\, and lighting. And to make things worse\, it is estimated that about 30% of the energy used in buildings is wasted. \nWhy? One big problem is that buildings’ HVAC systems are often run with set schedules rather than being dynamic to reflect occupancy\, usage\, environment and other usage factors. \nWith information\, like real time occupancy\, buildings can be better managed in reducing CO2 emissions and saving energy. Join us Tuesday\, October 19th at noon PST/ 3 pm EST for this lively panel discussion and learn about the latest technology and artificial intelligence solutions for running HVAC systems and building controls to optimize for energy savings and sustainability. \nKey takeaways: \n\nLearn how to reduce energy costs by 30 – 40%\nFind out what it takes to be on the leading edge of sustainability innovations\nLearn first-hand how customers are using this today to reduce their energy and C02 emissions\nKnow how to ensure optimal uptime\, run efficiently and effectively for comfort and air quality

SUMMARY:Virtual Smart Buildings Week
DESCRIPTION:In place of the planned in-person Smart Buildings Exchange 2020 event\, we are hosting a free Virtual Smart Buildings Week September 14th-17th\, 2020. Each day during the lunch hour\, a virtual session crafted from key topics and speaker commitments for our planned in-person event will feature a lively and interactive panel discussion as outlined below. Registration for the first three virtual sessions on September 14th\, 15th and 16th is now open and details for a fourth session on September 17th will be announced soon. These one-hour sessions each qualify for 1 Building Operator Certification (BOC) credential maintenance point and 0.10 IACET CEUs towards the renewal of industry certifications\, certificates and licenses including but not limited to AIA\, PE\, LEED\, IFMA\, ASHRAE\, and AEE. \nSmart Buildings: Using Data and Analytics to Improve Performance\nSeptember 14th\, 2020\, 12:00 – 1:00 PM\nThis session brings together two leading local smart service providers and two facility directors who have real world experience bringing smart solutions to their buildings. Designing for optimal performance is no guarantee that it will happen. The ability to acquire system performance data is no guarantee that the data will trigger operational improvements. In these two case studies\, buildings that should have been “top of their game” needed a new approach. Attendees will hear how ATS Automation and DB Engineering intervened to help facility directors collect relevant data from installed building systems\, use analytical tools to provide insights into performance problems\, and then – most importantly – help those facilities take action. The results speak for themselves. Improved energy performance that is persisting over time. \nModerator: Stan Price\, Smart Buildings Center \nPanelists: Pete Segall\, ATS Automation; Trevor Sodorff\, DB Engineering; Tim Wingert\, CBRE; Keith Berkoben\, Google \nSmart Buildings: Grid Enabled (and Efficient) Buildings\nSeptember 15th\, 2020\, 12:00 – 1:00 PM\nGrid enabled buildings (GEB) are equipped with technologies for load management that can respond to dynamic conditions in the electric grid. GEBs are generally more efficient (HVAC\, lighting\, envelope\, appliances)\, connected (hardware and software)\, smart (data and analytics)\, and flexible (loads\, generation\, storage). In an environment where hardware is increasingly attractively priced and a plethora of data is available\, building owners are able to provide a significant benefit to a utility’s growing portfolio of resources and play a creative role in meeting its resource capacity needs in real time and for the long term. GEBs also offer the owner the additional value proposition of taking more control of their utility costs. \nAn expert\, national panel will describe the key features of GEBs and outline the value streams that accrue to both the building owner and the serving utility in creating this grid enabled relationship. The panel will discuss both the technology required to create a two-way communication condition as well as the cost and benefits to all the parties in making GEBs a reality. \nModerators: Ben Levie\, Seattle City Light; Mark Lenssen\, Puget Sound Energy \nPanelists: Alexi Miller\, New Buildings Institute; Cara Carmichael\, Rocky Mountain Institute; Mark Frankel\, Ecotope; Mary Ann Piette\, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory \nSmart Buildings: Achieving Persistent Operational Performance\nSeptember 16th\, 2020\, 12:00 – 1:00 PM\nFacility energy performance and operations are often in direct conflict. It’s tough to hear\, but the scales are not balanced for building owners or operators. Social pressure\, building codes and new legislation are pushing EUI targets lower and lower. Advanced energy systems and smart building controls tease easy answers during initial design and construction\, but the harsh reality is that designing an efficient building does not translate to operations success and often only adds to reactive practices\, deferred maintenance and risk. In most cases\, operators are not prepared to take on complicated building systems and new-to-them technologies. With inadequate training or resources\, overtaxed staff override system settings to simply make it work. The result inadvertently drives up energy consumption and negates all efforts to optimize energy performance during design and construction while reducing asset life and introducing unnecessary risks. \nThe transition to smart and sustainable operations offers a best practice that balances the scales between energy expectations and operational realities. Panelists will outline proven approaches on actual projects that bridge design\, build\, train\, optimize to ensure current energy requirements are effective and met. \nModerator: Ric Cochrane\, McKinstry \nPanelists: Mike Kowalick\, South Landing EcoDistrict; Roy Buchert\, Kaiser Permanente; Norm Menter\, University of Washington \nSmart Buildings: Creating Intelligent Spaces\nSeptember 18th\, 2020\, 12:00 – 1:00 PM \nThe Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the world\, including the built environment. This transformation is already underway leading to improved organizational productivity\, better space utilization\, and more efficient and healthier buildings. To make this transformation successful\, it’s important to both understand the technology and practices as well as the cross-organizational nature of adopting smart projects. Microsoft has keen insight here based on its own adoption of smart technologies at their buildings as well as through close working relationships with its partner ecosystem. Microsoft will share a number of key considerations that can help building owners and operators make a successful transformation to buildings that are more agile\, flexible\, efficient\, and productive. \nRegister now for these engaging virtual panel discussions during Smart Buildings Week!
