The How-To Guide for Light Industrial Microbusinesses Startup strategies, retrofitting your facility, and the dawn of the “Eco Shop” Gretchen Heberling Junior, Architectural Engineering EPSCoR Fellow

My background Grew up working for my mother’s small business Have operated my own small business since the age of 15, Capital Players ( Architectural Engineering major with a minor in Violin Performance Plan to pursue a Master’s Degree in Building Science/Technology

In interdisciplinary look… Entrepreneurial recommendations from local business owners Building performance knowledge Green construction methods Sustainable building practices

Put these together… ▫An instructional guide for the budding entrepreneur in the industrial building sector ▫Why green building & sustainable business practices will save you money

Startup strategies Your product & your niche Intellectual property Paperwork, codes, and policies $$$: taxes, government incentives, capital, and loans Equipment Insurance Employees Marketing Internet presence Keeping customers: IT infrastructure

Why should I build green? Buildings consume 70% of our country’s energy and emit 38% of our CO 2 Government incentives & tax breaks Green building certification is a marketable characteristic A business is at its most vulnerable when it is a startup: saving money is a must! 2% upfront  20% savings By not building green, you are throwing money away More money saved = more capital to reinvest into your business

The Sustainability Pyramid Reduce. Lower your consumption of energy. ▫Size your building appropriately. ▫Make your building tight. 2. Be efficient. ▫Upgrade mechanical systems and appliances. ▫Use LED light bulbs, high- performance windows, etc. 3. Produce. ▫Wind turbines, solar panels, wood stoves, etc.

The EcoShop A retrofitted or newly constructed workshop/warehouse that implements sustainable construction practices and green building methods, resulting in high performance and better working atmosphere.

How do I build an Eco Shop? If you have a retrofit project… ▫Insulate ▫Install more efficient appliances  Windows, light bulbs, compost toilets ▫Water catchment ▫Improve IAQ through better ventilation ▫Recycle and compost

How do I build an Eco Shop? New construction project… ▫Solar orientation ▫Smart glazing (and shading) ▫Thermal mass ▫Materials & coatings  Embodied energy  Paints, stains, solvents, wood, & plastic ▫Insulation & Insolation

Efficient Systems Water ▫Greywater ▫Composting toilets Window ▫Smart placement ▫Operability ▫U-factor & SHGC Air ▫Redefine ‘comfort zone’ ▫IAQ  Ventilation & filtration Lighting ▫Daylighting ▫Task lighting vs. ambient

Power Generation Wind turbines Photovoltaic cells ▫Hot water or electric Geothermal Wood stoves

Recycling & Composting Construction waste Manufacturing waste Biodegradable waste  Compost Storage & disposal of volatile products

The Real Proof: Cost Analysis Light bulbs ▫Incandescent  Power use: kWh/year  Heat loss: $121.50/year ▫CFL  Power use: 29.2 kWh/year  Heat loss: $10.80/year  Savings: $110.70/year  Payback period: 290 days

The Real Proof: Cost Analysis Insulation ▫R-13  $1.11/m 2 /year  Adds up to $111.00/year ▫R-40  $0.36/m 2 /year  Adds up to $36.00/year  Savings: $75.00/year  Payback period: 3.2 years

The Real Proof: Cost Analysis Windows ▫Single-pane  $10.95/m 2 /year  Adds up to $219.00/year ▫Double-pane  $4.97/m 2 /year  Adds up to $99.51/year ▫Superwindow  $1.40/m 2 /year  Adds up to $28.03/year Payback periods: ▫Single to double: 33.6 years ▫Single to super: 37.8 years ▫Double to super: 100 years
