Title: Gone Green: Now How Do I Avoid Going Brown?
Instructor: Sean Benson
Course Description: Organizations should keep track of efficiencies gained with green projects in order to maintain the lower costs, benefits of certifications, and social distinctions which the projects produce. While "Going Green" is generally accepted as environmentally and socially beneficial, most organizations won't go green without economic justification. There are a number of tools that help an organization plan, forecast, and design the greening of their infrastructure, but once the decision to go green has been made and implemented, it is just as important to track actual and forecasted performance to avoid losing efficiency and certification. A good IWMS system can help compare performance forecasted during the planning and construction of green infrastructure, to actual as well as on-going performance for analysis and continuing accreditation, and, to avoid going brown. This class will discuss how to track energy, maintenance, and capital costs, and LEED® and Energy Star certifications.
