1 University of California, Irvine Campus-wide LEED Pilot Program Status Report
2
UC Irvine Pilot Program Campus Background Green Building Goals Program Approach Current Results Criteria for Success
3
UCI Today Opened in 1965 26,000 enrollment Significant building program History of sustainable practices
4
Campus Setting 1,500 acres + 200-acre San Joaquin Freshwater Marsh
5
Campus Setting 11,000 on-campus student residents, with an additional 2,750 students living adjacent to campus (over 50% of enrollment)
6
Campus Setting 1,108 faculty/staff homes on campus, with another 72 under construction (accommodating about 65% of faculty)
7
Campus Setting Substantial capacity for growth
8
Campus Setting NCCP/HCP participating landowner
10
UC Irvine Green Building Goals Leadership role Sustainability as an integral part of institution Recognize environmentally beneficial campus systems Efficient certification process Focus scarce resources on value-added sustainability measures
11
Green Building Pilot Program Goals Objectivity and credibility Value (cost-effective/time-efficient) Flexibility (e.g., design/build, third-party development) Recognize campus-wide sustainability systems Greener buildings
12
Pilot Program Approach Establish strong foundation of prototype credits: Campus-based systems Adopted plans, programs, and policies Design standards enforced by contract Streamlined project-level submittals building from baseline Monitoring and reporting of prototype credits by LEED-certified campus staff
13
Prototype Credit Examples Central energy systems Central plant Solar array Campus open space systems Campus transportation systems Urban design standards Standard specifications
14
Current Results 14 prototype credits established Ongoing consultation on 12 pending prototype credits Developing monitoring and reporting approach First two projects certified LEED Gold 14 subsequent projects in preparation
15
Palo Verde 2 Graduate Student Apartments Anteater Instruction and Research Building LEED Gold
16
Criteria for Success Objectivity and credibility + Value (cost-effective/time-efficient) ? Flexibility + Recognize campus-wide sustainability systems + Greener buildings +
17
LEED Soft Costs – Housing Project Criteria for Success: Value
18
LEED Soft Costs – Academic Building Criteria for Success: Value
19
Reduced documentation time and cost? Reduced direct costs? Energy modeling efficiencies? Commissioning efficiencies? Efficiencies = greener buildings?
