SUMMARY:Building Energy Simulation Forum: Energy Trust EDAPT Launch and a User’s Perspective of OpenStudio
DESCRIPTION:EDAPT is a new web-based tool that will help you model savings for Energy Trust New Buildings programs. This presentation will showcase some of the advantages of EDAPT for energy modelers. We’ll discuss Energy Trust QAQC and automated report generation as well as the submission and review process. \nThis presentation will review some recent updates to the OpenStudio software suite and highlight future updates —including model setup\, usefulness and availability of measures\, ease of HVAC system changes\, and the potential limitations of the tool. We will also discuss automated baselines\, BCL library of components and measures\, and the parametric analysis tool (PAT). \nThis is the final BESF presentation of 2017. Join fellow energy modelers\, energy analysts and Energy Trust staff to discuss industry trends and future presentation topics.

SUMMARY:Building Energy Simulation Forum: Using Analytics to Achieve High Performance Buildings
DESCRIPTION:As building energy and system-level monitoring becomes commonplace\, facilities teams are faced with an overwhelming amount of data. This data does not typically lead to insights or corrective actions unless it is stored\, organized\, and analyzed in automated ways. With sophisticated software applied to everyday building operations\, building owners are reaping the cost-savings benefits of energy management and information systems (EMIS) that embed building analytics. Design engineers are beginning to specify EMIS from the start\, which helps maintain as-commissioned performance. \nThe Smart Energy Analytics Campaign is a program led by the U.S. Department of Energy that supports building analytics by providing its participants with technical assistance and opportunities for national recognition.  This presentation will provide an introduction to EMIS\, key attributes for specification\, and an overview of how to get involved in the Campaign. \nBoxed lunches will be provided. \nAbout the presenter: \nHannah Kramer\, P.E. \nConsultant\, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Affiliate \nHannah Kramer is working with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory as the technical lead on a U.S. Department of Energy program to advance the adoption of Energy Management and Information Systems (EMIS) and monitoring-based commissioning across the country. She is responsible for program design\, technical support to participants\, and the development of market characterization studies.  Previously\, Hannah was the Director of Engineering at PECI/CLEAResult where she oversaw technical delivery\, emerging technologies research\, and development of EMIS-enabled utility programs. Over the last 17 years\, she has helped develop numerous resources for the commissioning and energy efficiency industry. Hannah has a mechanical engineering degree from Iowa State University and completed her masters at UC Berkeley in the Energy and Resources Group.  She is a registered professional engineer in the state of Oregon.

SUMMARY:August BESF: Annual Energy and Daylight Co-Simulation for Lighting and Shading Controls
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Energy Trust New Building’s August Building Energy Simulation Forum. Shading controls are typically not included in energy modeling and often not considered in daylight modeling. Similarly\, electric lighting is usually represented as a fixed schedule or with the use of simplified daylight harvesting calculations. EnergyPlus approaches this with the split-flux method while Radiance employs a more accurate ray-tracing technique. \nThis presentation will discuss a co-simulation workflow between EnergyPlus and Radiance in a mid-rise commercial office project. This work includes a series of energy and daylighting simulations that produce detailed operation schedules\, informing the whole building energy use and daylighting impacts of multiple shading systems.

SUMMARY:Building Energy Simulation Forum: The Bullitt Center in Review – Modeled vs. Actual Energy Use
DESCRIPTION:Energy Trust New Buildings presents\, January 2017 Building Energy Simulation Forum: \nThe Bullitt Center opened in Seattle in 2013 as the world’s largest certified commercial Living Building. In order to meet the requirements of the Living Building Challenge\, it was designed to achieve net-zero energy consumption with high-efficiency features such as passive cooling\, natural ventilation\, thermal massing\, and energy-saving HVAC solutions. This presentation will discuss the building’s energy modeling approach\, which used TAS and eQuest during design. Model results from the design will be compared with actual performance data collected over the building’s first three years of operation. Finally\, alternatives to the modeling approach will be discussed in light of changes to the tools available and lessons learned from the Bullitt Center results. \n*BOXED LUNCHES WILL BE PROVIDED*\n*IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ATTEND IN PERSON\, REGISTER AS A REMOTE ATTENDEE AND THE PHONE AND WEBINAR LOGIN INFORMATION WILL BE EMAILED TO YOU*\n\nAbout the presenter:\nBen Burnett\, PE\nMechanical Engineer\, PAE \nBen is a mechanical engineer with PAE\, a national leader in sustainable design. His focus is on using energy modeling to inform the design of energy-efficient and comfortable buildings. Ben’s resume includes multiple LEED rated or registered projects\, such as the new LEED Platinum\, Passive House and Net Positive Energy Innovation Center for the Rocky Mountain Institute.
