1. Rick Khan, Director Federal Energy Management Program Department of Energy FEMP: Leading and Partnering with Agencies to Design and Build High Performing, Sustainable Buildings White House Sustainability Summit Washington DC Jan. 24, 2006

2. The Federal Energy Management program is part of the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy at the US Department of Energy. DOE/FEMP FEMP’s mission is to “..reduce the cost and environmental impact of the Federal government by advancing energy efficiency and water conservation, promoting the use of distributed and renewable energy, and improving utility management decisions at Federal sites.”  FEMP chairs the Interagency Sustainability Working Group that developed the MOU 

3. DOE/FEMP REDUCE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF MATERIALS ENHANCE INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY PROTECT AND CONSERVE WATER USE INTEGRATED DESIGN OPTIMIZE ENERGY PERFORMANCE Why FEMP is Interested in Sustainable Buildings “Energy/Water efficiency requirements are a major component of Sustainable Buildings

4. FEDERAL DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION MARKET The Federal government owns over 3 billion square feet. 20% of the Federal complex will be new construction over the next 10 years. The greatest opportunity for lifecycle cost-effective energy savings is in new construction during design and construction. Sustainability efforts taken today can save 30-50% of the energy use in new buildings.

5. POLICY DRIVERS Energy Policy Act of 2005, Section 109 DOE to issue new federal building standards by August 2006 that require that… –Where lifecycle cost-effective, buildings shall be designed to achieve energy consumption levels at least 30% below ASHRAE or International Energy Conservation Code (for residential buildings) –Cost effective sustainable design principles shall be applied to the siting, design, and construction of all new and replacement buildings. –In annual budget requests and reports to FEMP, each agency shall list all new buildings and identify which ones meet the standards OMB A-11 Incorporating sustainable design as standard practice (life-cycle cost analysis, energy/water efficiency, indoor environmental quality) throughout the federal sector Executive Order 13123 403 (d) “…develop sustainable design principles…apply such principles to the siting, design, and construction of new facilities.”

10. FEMP’s Guiding Principle for Integrated Design Incorporate sustainable design principles early in design where they are most cost- effective FEMP: Helping with Sustainability INTEGRATED DESIGN Set specific criteria in RFPs related to their expertise in energy\sustainability to select A/E Incorporate sustainable Use design charrettes as part of the integrated design process Define clear and quantifiable energy goals Verify energy goals throughout the process Commission the building Integrated Design for New Construction is a Key to Success Integrated Design vs. Phased Approach

11. RFP defines project goals, technical and cost requirements. All criteria for selection weighted according to priorities determined by planning team. A/E selection criteria includes experience and expertise in designing sustainable high- performance labs. A/E selection made by multi-disciplinary planning team. Procurement of Architectural and Engineering Services for Sustainable Buildings http://www.eere.energy.gov/femp/program/procuring_services.cfm http://www.eere.energy.gov/femp/program/procuring_services.cfm Select A/E with energy in mind.

14. Commission the building Model Commissioning Specifications: http://www.peci.org/library/mcpgs.htm Continuous Commissioning Guidebook for Federal Managers http://www.eere.energy.gov/femp/operations_maintenance/commissioning_guidebook.cfm “Building commissioning has emerged as the preferred method of ensuring that building systems are installed and operated to provide the performance envisioned by the designer.” NREL PIX 09259 FEMP: Helping with Sustainability INTEGRATED DESIGN FEMP’s Guiding Principles for Integrated Design

15. Defining a quantifiable and measurable energy goal compared to a reference standard (such as 30% below ASHRAE 90.1 2004) Using computer simulation tools, reviewed and confirmed at each stage of design stage – 50%, 90%, and FINAL Measuring and comparing actual performance to estimated performance, after one year of operation.

The networking has resulted in new projects and new ideas on how to improve the performance of green buildings.” FEMP Leads the Interagency Sustainability Working Group (ISWG) FEMP: Helping with Sustainability Policy

23. The time is now to…... design, build and retrofit buildings that contribute to a more diverse and secure national energy supply and.. create buildings that can be a part of how the nation thinks differently about its energy solutions Collectively, by signing this Memorandum of Understanding, the Federal government is committing to designing high performance, low energy, sustainable buildings, and leading by example.
