  1. The Sustainability and Energy Performance Analysis of Bernard Weatherill House (BWH) Kyle Gerlach Tyler Howard Ben List Juan Parra

  2. 1: Introduction Rationale of Project The Taberner House The Bernard Weatherill House http://www.yourlocalguardian.co.uk/resources/images/2661766.jpg?type=articleLandscape http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2632554

  3. 2: Background The Project • Worcester Polytechnic Institute • Interactive Qualifying Project • 14 weeks • Report

  4. Recommendation Evaluation 3: Methodology 4: Findings 4.5 Energy Management Software and Bureau provider Portfolio 3.5 Energy Management Software and Bureau provider Portfolio 4.2 Building Energy Management Analysis 3.2 Building Energy Management Analysis 4.1 Building Design Review 3.1 Building Design Review 3.7 Submit Deliverables (Portfolio, Visuals, Presentation) 3.3 Predicted vs. In-Use Energy Consumption 4.3 Predicted vs. In-Use Energy Consumption Findings Methodology 4.6 Create Visual Tools for Public Communication 4.4 Assess Occupant Opinions 3.4 Assess Occupant Opinions Time 4.6 Create Visual Tools for Public Communication

  5. Finding #1 Energy Strategy and BREEAM Assessment The BREEAM Design can be Improved Difficult to Understand BWH Design Plan Recommendation: • Locate or obtain a post-construction BREEAM Accreditation

  6. Finding #2 Building Energy Analytics Trend Control Points are Unintuitively Named Trend Sensors are Improperly Calibrated Recommendations: • Rename Trend sensors and aggregate them appropriately • Recalibrate Trend sensors “Town Hall 16A” “Chiller Shunt 05A”

  7. Finding #3 Energy Building Performance Electricity Use is 42.3 % Higher than Predicted PV Panels are withing 15% of Predicted Values Lighting Usage is 4.2 % Less than Predicted Small Power is 29% Higher than Predicted Recommendations: • Regulate Small Power Devices at BWH • Restrict After-Hours Work to One Floor

  8. Finding #4 Energy Management Companies 8 Companies Available for Energy Management 8 Boroughs Use Similar Energy Management Options: • Scenario 1: Keep TEAM Sigma • Scenario 2: TEAM Bureau Services • Scenario 3: Switch Providers Entirely

  9. Finding #5 Occupant Satisfaction/Awareness 34% Know of BWH BREEAM Accreditation 79% Believe BWH is a Better Environment Recommendations: • Increase recycling participation in BWH • Increase occupant awareness of BWH features with visual tools

  10. Finding #6 Visual Tools Sankey Diagrams are Effective Visual Tools Energy Management Offers Energy Dashboards Data for Complete Sankey Data is not Available Recommendations: • Online dashboards of utility information should be published • Continuous production of Sankey Diagrams • Display visuals in elevator floor lobbies
