BO322-1: Methods and Tools for Meeting Federal Government Energy Efficiency Initiatives
Session: BO322-1
Title: Methods and Tools for Meeting Federal Government Energy Efficiency Initiatives
Instructor: Louise Sabol
Course Description: New and aggressive federal mandates for improved energy efficiency and sustainable design in federal facilities are impacting building-related management and project processes throughout the U.S. government. Federal agencies must improve building energy performance for both new and existing buildings in an increasingly demanding timeline that extends until 2030. These performance mandates will change current building practices, and also spur increased demand for software solutions that can provide greater data and analytic support for building energy performance. Architects and engineers will employ a range of software tools, including Autodesk® Revit®, Green Building Studio®, and Ecotect® to help improve the energy performance of existing buildings. The value of building information modeling, visual analysis tools, and robust data exchange capabilities will increase. This class will review current federal energy management goals, and outline potential workflows.
