3 General Introduction In pursuing LEED TM certification for Indiana University Glick Eye institute (IU GEI), the project team elected to pursue a credit for Measurement and Verification (M&V) under the Energy and Atmosphere Credit 5 based on the USGBC LEED TM 2.2 rating system for new construction. The intent of this credit is to provide for the ongoing accountability of building energy consumption over time. The purpose of the M&V plan is to describe how the data collection and analysis will occur. Pursuant to the International Performance Measurement & Verification Protocol (IPMVP) Volume III: Concepts and Options for Determining Energy Savings in New Construction, April 2003, this M&V plan will be developed and implemented according to the steps outlined in Option D: Calibrated Simulation (Savings Estimation Method 2). This option requires the comparison of actual energy use of the building and its systems with the performance predicted by a calibrated computer model developed from the preliminary computer models created for EA Credit 1. The preliminary computer models were developed with Trace 700 energy analysis software by Affiliated Engineers, Inc. The verification that the building is functioning as designed will be accomplished by measuring the actual energy usage of the IU-GEI building for a period of one year after the building is normally occupied. The actual energy usage will be measured by providing adequate metering and sub-metering of major energy consuming end-use components and trending this energy usage through the campus IONy EEM energy management system. Once this energy usage has been metered/trended for a period of 12 months, the data will be summarized, reviewed, and compared to the original energy model. The original energy model will then be calibrated to match the actual metered energy usage. A formal written report will be submitted. The report will detail results with respect to which systems are functioning as designed and which ones could use improvements in either modeling or in design. The report may also include recommendations for continued monitoring. According to the IPMVP, the M&V plan should include the following elements: 1. Statement of M&V objectives and description of project context of the M&V program. 2. Specification of the M&V option to be used to determine savings. 3. Documentation and specification of the baseline including a listing of all important assumptions and supporting rationale. 4. Specification of simulation calibration procedures, calibration parameters, frequency of measurement of calibration parameters, and calibration accuracy objectives. 5. Documentation of the design intent of pertinent Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) or energy performance strategies. 6. Expected overall M&V accuracy and anticipated areas of error susceptibility and magnitude of the sensitivity. 7. Statement of the M&V period. 8. Specification of the metering points to be employed. 9. Identification of the operational conditions to be monitored, and methods for monitoring and data collection. 10. Specification for reporting format of the results. 11. Description of quality assurance procedures. 3

4 12. Specification of the information and data that will be available for third party verification, if required. 13. Specification of the methods to be used to deal with missing or lost metered data. 14. Identification of the parties responsible for implementing the plan. Facility Description The IU-GEI in Indianapolis, IN is a new four story, 77,000 square foot instructional and research laboratory building housing staff and research offices, laboratory spaces, and a vivarium space. The office areas are served by a variable air volume air handling unit with demand control ventilation to reduce outside air requirements appropriate to the occupancy levels. The laboratory areas are served by a variable air volume system with enthalpy wheel exhaust air heat recovery and a demand control ventilation system that varies laboratory ventilation based on occupants and lab activity. The facility is served by district energy systems providing the building with chilled water and steam. Per LEED Treatment of District or Campus Thermal Energy in LEED v2 and LEED 2009 Design & Construction, district energy will be accounted for in M&V through the building level meters to monitor the energy supplied from the plant. M&V of upstream DES equipment shall be implemented to the extent necessary to verify the DES performance claimed under EAc1. As required by LEED, this M&V plan does not include any installed meters on upstream district energy equipment but does include metering of the site energy delivered to the building. The full accounting of upstream district energy whole-system energy performance will be provided in the final M&V report. M&V Objectives The objectives of the M&V are: 1. To determine/estimate the energy savings of the facility (at the whole building level) through integration of multiple ECMs in the building and by measuring energy use at main utility meters or with aggregated sub-meters and BAS trending. 2. To assure correct operation of the systems and sub-systems in the building by monitoring the operation status of the equipment. 3. To allow optimization of building systems and sub-systems in the building by adjusting the operation set points of the equipment. M&V Approach/Option This M&V plan will be developed and implemented according to the steps outline in Option D: Calibrated Simulation (Savings Estimation Method 2). Baseline Documentation A computer model was created for EA credit 1 which compares the baseline building design with a proposed building design to demonstrated energy savings derived from ECM s implemented (See Appendices C& D for energy output projected from energy model). For M&V, the proposed model will be considered the baseline documentation and will be compared to actual energy data that is gathered for 12 months after the building is regularly occupied. 4

5 Important Assumptions and Supporting Rationale for Baseline Model See Appendix E for a complete list of modeling assumptions and rationale. Calibration Procedures After data is collected for the required 12-month period, the as-built (Proposed) energy model will be calibrated to reflect the operational conditions of the facility, including weather conditions and occupancy and project schedules over the measurement period. After these parameters have been changed, the model is re-run, and its results compared to the metered postconstruction data from the M&V period. The tolerance goal for calibration of the model will be 5%, and additional modifications to the inputs will be made as necessary and consistent with the installed equipment and building operation. After the calibration of the as-built model, the baseline model will be calibrated and rerun to reflect any parameter changes from the as-built model. Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) Implemented - Laboratory 6 ACPH occupied / 4 ACPH unoccupied - Laboratory DCV system that monitors TVOC levels and reduces airflow to 4 ACPH occupied / 2 ACPH unoccupied - Enthalpy wheel exhaust heat recovery - Fume hood occupancy sensors that reduce face velocity from 100 fpm to 80 fpm - Exhaust fan staging - CO2 based DCV control for office outside air control - Occupancy sensors, which turn on/off lights based on the occupancy - Improved exterior wall insulation and fenestration SHGC performance Performance Verification Phase Overview This phase of the work involves: 1. Executing on-site data collection plan. 2. Analysis phase which includes: a. Compiling overall building utility consumption and cost information from monthly utility invoices and BAS for 12 months after regular occupancy. b. Analyzing collected data c. Updating/adjusting energy model to collected data. d. Identify operational or design issues that may contribute major differences to original energy model and the final energy model. 3. Submitting a Final M&V Plan Report summarizing the results of findings and corrective actions taken. Data Collection Procedure The Glick Eye Institute will be monitored by a central campus system utilizing PowerLogicy IONy EEM energy management system. The EMS will bring all mechanical, electrical, process and facility systems under a single centralized supervisory control and monitoring system that will support Facility Management and Enterprise Applications, and will monitor the following systems: Heating Hot Water System Process Chilled Water System 5

6 Chilled Water System Return Air Air Handling Unit Process Steam System High Pressure Steam System Lighting Electrical Loads Motor Electrical Loads Accessory Electric Loads Outdoor Weather Conditions IU will trend log data for 12 months for each of the major meters, sub-meters and BAS systems described above. Frequency for each trend log will be in 15 minute intervals averaged over each hour unless additional detail is required. Trend log data will be archived to permanent media on a monthly basis. IU will collect monthly utility bills and will review monthly data collection and utility bills to confirm data is within expected results. If collected data is not within expected results, the owner will investigate the instrumentation and/or trend log setups and make corrective actions as necessary. The data collection phase duration may be extended if corrective measures are required. A project specific approach has been developed to ensure that proper measurements will be taken. All points to be metered or measured, how the data is to be collected, and how often this shall occur is summarized in the following table (Table 1).

Indiana University TBD TBD Indiana University The controls contractor will complete an installation checklist and calibrate all instrumentation to known references. Commissioning agent will confirm that systems are installed per contract documentation and that all instrumentation calibration check lists have been documented. Commissioning report will document the installation of systems. Commissioning agent will spot check instrumentation calibration work to ensure that work has been completed accurately. Commissioning agent has the right to request corrective calibration work if work is found not be within design tolerances. Testing and balancing agency will confirm that ventilation systems and HVAC water systems are adjusted to within 10 percent of design values. Results will be documented in testing and balancing report per specification Section Water Systems Test Adjust Balance and per Section Air Systems Test Adjust Balance. Commissioning agent will spot check testing and balancing work to ensure that work has been completed accurately. Commissioning agent has the right to request corrective balance work if work is found not be within design tolerances. Design engineer will review all testing and balancing reports. Analysis Phase - Compile overall building utility consumption and cost information from monthly utility cost sheets for 12 months after occupancy. - Analyze utility data and correlate utility usage to sub-meter data and categories. - Update Baseline and As-Built energy models. - Calibrate As-Built energy model to sub-meter and utility data. - Adjust Baseline model to reflect any corresponding changes to the As-Built calibrated model. - Identify operational or design issues that may contribute to major variations between As- Built and Proposed Design energy models. - Calculate estimated energy use and cost savings based on calibrated Baseline and As- Built models. If there are major deviations from the energy model, the design engineer may suggest further investigations, or corrective actions to operational procedures or to the design. Simulation Calibration Pursuant to Option D of the IPMVP, calibration of the as-built energy model must be made. Most adjustment will include modification of assumption of schedules and occupancies or parameters such as equipment performance maps. Calibration will also include the measured weather data that is collected for the same period as the energy collection period. After the as-built energy model has been satisfactorily calibrated to include changes in parameters and weather data, the model should be re-run. The same changes should be incorporated into the Baseline model, to the extent that the parameters are applicable. 8
