'06 – ' History of LEED-EB: O&M at UCSB Over a Decade of Sustainable Commitment Girvetz Hall LEED-EB Silver Recreation Center LEED-EB Silver 2012 Recertification LEED-EB:O&M v2009 Gold Signed with USGBC for Portfolio Program 25 by 2012
+ Initial Benchmark in 2005 Sent out to Green Schools listserv Used UC Berkeley, Colorado State, and Bard College Gyms21 data set Received 15 complete data sets Numerous calls with USGBC/GBCI Provided 3 LEED points for the project Gyms21 Development
+ Gyms21 Success!
+ Energy Benchmarking in EBOM - Meter Data - 12 month period - All energy consumption - Apples to Apples!
+ Energy Benchmarking in EBOM - Three Standard Compliance Paths 1. Energy Star 2. CBECS 3a. Historic Baseline 3b. Comparable Building Dataset
+ Energy Benchmarking in EBOM - Thinking About ‘Comparable Buildings’ a. Can your building be deconstructed? b. Where might analogues exist? c. How do those analogues differ? d. Can I get data? e. Can I normalize/adjust for differences?
+ Gyms21 - Energy Benchmarking - The model: Labs21 a. Energy use intensity for laboratories b. Accounts for a variety of complex variables - lab type, climate, operating hours, LAR c. Can we do the same for University Rec Centers?
+ Gyms21 - Energy Benchmarking - Collaboration with USGBC a. In principle, EBOM is for all building types b. USGBC/GBCI motivated to solve these problems and accommodate solutions c. Universities are a huge and important market sector
+ Gyms21 - Energy Benchmarking -Collaboration with UC & CSU campuses a. Who has rec centers? b. Who has energy data? c. Who needs to benchmark buildings?
