Energy Efficiency in Government Buildings
Government agencies worldwide are mandated to reduce their total energy use.
- In the US, EPACT 2005 and EISA 2007 regulations mandate:
- 20% reduction in totoal energy use per facility by 2015
- Building energy sub-metering by 2012
- LEED and EPA EnergyStar certifications provide credits for:
- Measurement & Verification
- Documentation of sustainable building
- In the EU, Directive 2002/91/EC sets minimum standards for building energy performance
If you are a government facility manager, your challenges are:
- Where to find that 3%-5% annual reduction in energy required by the mandate
- How to design an effective savings program without losing productivity
- How to measure and verify that the program is meeting the goal
- How not to lose those savings over time
