Energy Modeling Train the Trainer

Modeling the planet and the primary mediator – residential, commercial

and industrial buildings

Energy and Sustainable O&M, Development, Design and Policy in Hawaii

Proposed methodology, procedures and validations

Standard Facility Assessment Protocol

• Measure estimated savings for a retrofit package• Prioritize measures in terms of cost from low hanging fruit to ridiculous • Understand building performance calibrations with respect to behavior,

equipment and envelope • Rating comparisons by kWh/m2/yr. (default)• Develop a standard for energy performance contract and follow-up M&V• Justification for upgrades relative to building codes, Energy Star, LEED and

others • Estimate greenhouse gas emissions for climate action planning and other

measurement methods and measure the resulting improvement to scientifically compare

Suggested Sequence

• Analyses Objectives = Hawaiian building objectives (maybe 20%?)

• Building orientation and regional weather • Building shell, structure, materials and shades • Operational schedule• Internal loads – people & equipment • HVAC performance

• School building• Central AC with some DX AC• Window shades• Low, med or high occupancy • Interruptible – uninterruptable power

supplies?• Lights – how automated – switched per fl.

etc.??
