  1. Bill HarrisonNew Jersey ChapterFebruary 3, 2009

  2. Challenges • Energy – cost and availability • Food – cost and availability • Protecting the environment

  3. ASHRAE • 52,000 members in 130 countries • 170 chapters in 24 countries • Associate Societies in 32 countries • 2500 members active on committees

  4. Energy • Cost and availability • IEA: $100 / Barrel till 2015; $120 till 2030 • End use in developed economies • Buildings – 40% • Transportation 28% • Industry 32% • Coal and oil primary energy sources • 45% Growth between 2006 and 2030

  5. Food • Cost • Energy driven costs • Spoilage • Availability • Cost and spoilage • Foodstock diversion • Refrigeration – large energy consumer

  6. Environment • Buildings use 70% of electricity • Extensive emissions from generation • Water use for generation • 45% Emissions growth 2006 to 2030

  7. ASHRAE Strategic Plan • Strategic Direction # 1 ASHRAE will lead the advancement of sustainable building design and operation • 2007-2008 Focus on design • 2008-2009 Focus on operation

  8. Energy Waste A Real Problem… A Real Opportunity

  9. Sustainability for ASHRAE Energy Efficiency And Healthy and Productive Indoor Environments

  10. Improved Operating Strategies • Energy Systems Lab - Texas A & M– Save 10% to 40% energy • WEF: 17% Internal rate of return for energy efficiency upgrades • Not product centered • Software and expert knowledge focused • Limited knowledge distribution

  11. Improved Operating Strategies • Lack of standardization • Minor changes use major energy • Wrong incentives for operators • No training programs

  12. Sustainability Challenge • Six of top ten energy measures under control of architects • Integrated Building Design process essential • Communication - collaboration • “First Cost” mentality • Engineers: evil enablers

  13. Owner Issues • Life Cycle Costing • Equipment room sizing • Engineers need to deliver energy message • Energy cost implications • Building Commissioning

  14. The Path to a Net Zero Building cash flow Lease Costs (or Finance Costs) utility bills 1 2 Total Annual Costs ($/year) 0 0% 100% Source Energy Savings (%)

  15. The Path to a Net Zero Building cash flow Lease Costs (or Finance Costs) utility bills 1 Total Annual Costs ($/year) 3 2 0 0% 100% Source Energy Savings (%)

  16. The Path to a Net Zero Building 4 cash flow Lease Costs (or Finance Costs) utility bills 1 Total Annual Costs ($/year) 3 2 0 100% 0% Source Energy Savings (%)

  17. Owner Organizations • Building Owners and Managers Association • International Facility Management Association • APPA – The Association of Higher Education Facility Executives

  18. Operator Training • Local chapter program • HVAC fundamentals • High performance products and systems • 1980’s training produces 1980 results

  19. High Performance Building Design Energy Modeling Building Narrative

  20. High Performance Building Design A larger budget for planning and design produces lower construction costs and lower operating costs

  21. The Cost of Owning HVAC • Capital costs • Utility costs • Repair costs • Replacement costs • Maintenance costs

  22. Maintenance Plans • ASHRAE Guideline 4 – 2008 • Preparation of Operating and Maintenance Documentation for Building Systems • CIBSE Guide M – 2008 • Maintenance Engineering and Management • Must include energy budgets and energy reporting

  23. Energy Conserving Strategies • Envelope testing • Pressure tests • Infrared Scans • Return to design conditions • Scheduling review

  24. The Buildings Business • Largest user primary energy • Improved building operations • 10% to 40% energy savings • Local educational programs by ASHRAE chapters • Keep our green buildings green

  25. ASHRAE’s Role • Net zero design guidance by 2015 • Building Energy Labeling • Reduce energy in existing buildings • Affordable and maintainable refrigeration systems • Efficient refrigeration systems

  26. ASHRAE Chapter Actions • Schedule a meeting with local owner organizations • Integrated Building Design • High performance design costs more • Keep your Green Buildings Green • Get comfortable with building energy benchmarks:“What’s your EUI?” • Walk the talk – how is your building being operated?

  27. The Cost of Being Green • Energy Efficiency - $170 Billion • Smart Grid - $8.6 Trillion • Energy Storage - $180 per Megawatt hour • Carbon Capture and Sequestration - $ ??? • $450 - $600 Billion per year until 2030 • Priced carbon emissions - $??? Estimates for global mitigation from “Green Investing” - 2009 WEF

  28. Global CO2 Emissions • 2008: 30 Billion Metric Tons • 2030: 42 Billion Metric Tons
