SUMMARY:Planning and Design for Getting to Zero in Schools
DESCRIPTION:Zero energy school construction is a growing trend across the country. An innovative combination of internal and external champions\, integrated design\, energy efficiency management strategies and renewable energy is making these possible at little to no extra cost. The key to achieving zero energy is drastic energy reduction and cost shifting to areas that pay dividends and reduce those big upfront costs. Strategies such as building orientation\, daylighting\, thermal mass\, high efficiency systems and can reduce the over need for larger\, more expensive renewable energy systems to achieve that zero goal. CMTA\, Inc. has 10 schools operating at zero energy\, with 12 currently in design and hundreds more high performance schools across the nation on their resume. Join Zachary Schneider and Brian Turner from CMTA\, Inc. as they discuss the successful approach to planning for and designing these high performance schools without the price tag.

SUMMARY:The Getting to Zero Market Landscape and 2020 Zero Energy Buildings List
DESCRIPTION:NBI has been tracking the zero energy building sector for over a decade and our annual Zero Energy Buildings List is just about complete\, with nearly 700 zero energy verified and emerging buildings being tracked! Join NBI’s Alexi Miller and Kevin Carbonnier as they share the status of the zero energy market in the United States and Canada\, including a technology review and the relationship between zero energy and zero carbon. The session features leaders from the Urban Sustainability Directors Network\, and firms Perkins+Eastman and VMDO\, along with ASHRAE\, which will be opening their renovated zero energy HQ this fall. The speakers will share case studies that represent a market shift in size\, scale\, and scope of zero energy and carbon neutral buildings.

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!

DESCRIPTION:The CTA-2045 Standard and Flexible Demand \nJuly 1\, 9:30 – 11:00am PST \nPresented by the NW Energy Coalition \nGrid-integratable water heaters and other interactive appliances and systems are the leading edge of a coming wave of customer-side resources that will increase energy system efficiency by enabling utilities to manage and shape electricity demand to a degree never before imagined. Combined with enhanced demand response capabilities\, improved energy efficiency\, and expanding distributed resources\, grid-integratable systems and appliances will play a vital role in transitioning the Northwest to an emissions-free electric system. \nThe webinar will explore key questions surrounding the rise of customer-side resources: \n\nHow can customer-side resources be engaged to optimally shape demand?\nHow large a role can customer-side resources play in meeting adequacy needs?\nWhat technological\, business\, and legal barriers stand in the way and how can we overcome them?\n\nAnd\, most importantly\, how can we bring customer-side resources to scale? These and other issues will be addressed by a panel of experts who have pioneered recent CTA-2045 pilot programs. \nThe discussion will be moderated by NW Energy Coalition Senior Policy Analyst\, Fred Heutte. Join Fred and the panel on Wednesday\, July 1 from 9:30 to 11:00am PST by registering below: \nRegister

SUMMARY:Decarbonization Policy Framework: Building Policies
DESCRIPTION:Decarbonizing our building stock requires a comprehensive set of actions\, occurring in parallel and phased in over time\, across different sectors and levels of government. NEEP’s Building Decarbonization Public Policy Framework lays out the pathway. A successful transition to zero carbon [buildings] will require market transformation with advanced technological solutions\, and equitable and fair policy mechanisms. Critical policy areas include comprehensive state and utility policy\, building regulation\, and alignment with evaluation\, measurement\, and verification (EM&V). \nBuildings consume about two-thirds of the United States’ power supply and produce about 40 percent of carbon emissions nationwide. Existing buildings and buildings being constructed now will have a considerable impact on our region’s energy use 50 to 100 years from now. Therefore\, the built environment\, including residential\, commercial\, and public structures\, presents an opportunity to drastically reduce carbon emissions. During this webinar we will learn from best practices in building codes\, benchmarking and building standards\, and residential labeling.
