Fort Stanwix National Monument Energy Audit Week 3 Update: ‘Concept’ Generation Friday, December 19th, 2008 Customer: FSNM, contact: Debbie Conway Guide: Brian Thorn P09453
General Update/Progress • First site visit, Saturday 12/13 • Refined customer needs, tour, pictures and data collection • Completed utilities bills database – current energy profile • Gathering energy consumption of current systems • Analyzing building envelope • Testing energy analysis software • Preliminary impact of ECMs
FSNM ‘Concept’ Generation • 2 project components have concept generation needs: • Energy conservation measures (ECMs) applicable to FSNM • Pilot renewable energy scale-project • At this point, only high level renewable energy concepts • Additional research and project components required • Renewable energy concepts for further evaluation: • Solar Power • Wind Power • Geothermal Power • Biomass
FSNM Energy Conservation Concepts • Broken into short and long term concepts • Short term: operation & maintenance approach, low cost replacements and or upgrades • Long term: retrofit through replacement, upgrade systems • Generated from site visit and current available data • Short term: • Willett Center Concepts: • Reduce lighting system load during non-peak operation • Adjust operational hours during non-peak operations • Utilize window shades more efficiently for heating/cooling • Use high efficiency light blubs where possible • Repair duct leaks • Adopt all energy star products
FSNM Energy Conservation Concepts • Short term continued: • Willett Center • Improve door and window seals • Implement tinted or reflective glass • Adjust exhibit zone temperature range • Install ceiling fans in exhibit section • Fort and Site-wide concepts: • Employee training program • Solar powered walk way lights • Replace T12 with T8 lights • Replace kitchen and auditorium equipment • Long term (ongoing concept generation, data driven): • Replace AC units in Fort • Insulate attic space more efficiently in Willett Center • Implement heat pumps (renewable energy)
