  18. ASHE Healthcare Energy/Water Survey Updating the ENERGY STAR scorefor Hospitals and Medical Offices Clark Reed, U.S. EPA ENERGY STAR ASHE Sustainability Committee member

  19. 6,000+ Organizations Partner with ENERGY STAR for Commercial Buildings ASHE + ENERGY STAR a strong partnership for over 20 years!

  20. The 1-100 ENERGY STAR Score • ENERGY STAR Certified Buildings • More efficient than 75% of similar buildings • Uses 35% less energy (on average) • One simple number understood by ALL stakeholders

  21. ENERGY STAR Scores Measure Environmental Achievement ASHE Practice Greenhealth USGBC U.S. EPA

  22. ASHE Goal From 244 ENERGY STAR certified GMS hospitals now… … 530 ENERGY STAR certified hospitals (300 more) by 2020 ENERGY STAR certified hospitals use 35% less energy than typical hospitals on average.

  23. Benchmarking Numbers • More than 450,000 buildings have received ENERGY STAR scores • Greater than 40 billion square feet • 40% of commercial buildings market • 4,939+ GMS hospitals (2.4 billion ft2) have benchmarked in Portfolio Manager Hospital Score Updates

  24. How EPA Develops a Score

  25. Developing a 1 – 100 ENERGY STAR Score Data analysis Nationally representative survey Statistical modeling Comparison between actual energy data and the modeled estimate

  26. ENERGY STAR Score Key Principles • Measured • -Based on actual as-billed energy data for all fuel types • -No modeled data or extrapolations • Whole building indicator • -Includes all energy use in a building • -Captures interactions of building systems not individual equipment efficiency • -Accounts for weather and operational differences among buildings and over time • Peer group comparison • -Compares a building’s energy performance to its national peer group • -Tracks how changes at a building level alter the building’s standing relative to its peer group

  27. What makes a survey successful? • Large number of facilities • The more, the better • Goal: 370 GMS Hospitals, 370 MOBs • Diverse group of facilities • Ownership: Better to have 100 hospitals from 20 different systems then to have 200 hospitals from 1 system • Geography: Ideally have facilities in all regions of the country (including Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Alaska) • Answers to ALL questions • We cannot use surveys if respondents skip questions • Need complete energy data • Need accurate values for all operational inputs (staffed beds, MRIs, etc.)

  28. Survey Timeline

  29. ASHE Energy & Water Survey Timeline

  30. What Makes a Survey Successful?

  31. An ENERGY STAR Score for Hospitals and MOBs is not a slam dunk… Older data set caused EPA to discontinue MOB certification in 2013. Only You and your ASHE chapter (and good data) can make it happen by submitting completed surveys.

  37. ASHE is the FCC’s designated frequency coordinator. To register telemetry: Two step process. • Register the facility • Register the telemetry equipment
