7 Politics bends toward reality (I hope) Republican Governor/Candidate Huntsman: GOVERNOR HUNTSMAN: The minute that the Republican Party becomes the anti-science party, we have a huge problem. We lose a whole lot of people who would otherwise allow us to win the election in When we take a position that basically runs counter to what 98 of 100 climate scientists have said, what the National Academy of Sciences has said about what is causing climate change and man s contribution to it, I think we find ourselves on the wrong side of science, and, therefore, in a losing position. - August 2011 on ABC

16 Brand Impact of Greening Greening impacts: three Sources of Brand Equity Increased brand awareness (e.g., free media exposure) Greater preference due to specific attributes (e.g., better IEQ) General non-attribute preference (e.g., association with quality, lower risk) AAA rating LEED > Zero net energy > living buildings

17 Green Buildings becoming very big globally GB reaches scale tipping point if it exists it must be possible! Public to private New to existing Snapshot to continuous Volume > place based scale GB based on LEED - becomes design norm globally (global brand) Branding benefits of Green keep growing (green-= quality), becomes dominant rationale New financing mechanisms: Biggest market/challenge is deep retrofits of existing buildings Next target zero net energy buildings, campuses, cities, countries

23 Net Zero Building By load shifting and intelligently adjusting interior temperatures, BuildingIQ optimizes HVAC operations, balancing : reduced energy usage/cost maintained or improved occupant comfort maximized DR event performance Building as energy storage In net zero buildings this strategy: zero solar uses the building s thermal mass as energy storage to balance volatile renewable sources forecasts and adjusts timing of peak HVAC loads to match renewable power supply BIQ optimized HVAC wind ice storage

24 Levelized District Optimization ensures Net Zero Cities Use predictive energy optimization in 2 ways: At District Level: DemandCenterIQ and ManagerIQ form a Net Zero NOC that: predicts and analyzes DR capacity and energy storage capacity to aggregate electronically dispatches DR using OpenADR. Net Zero NOC Portfolio/ Campus Energy Management Facility-level Predictive Energy Optimization At Facilities level: BuildingIQ: provide operational and analytical oversight on entire portfolio and campus from predictive, real-time, historical perspectives. Rolling Optimized Reserves Block of building loads before optimization Target Usage and Demand ceiling Block of building loads after optimization (rolling)
