and enhanced commissioning for LEED?
- Interested in providing continuing education
seminars for your staff?
Enermodal’s Lunch & Learn seminars are designed for you! We have several topics already developed. Or
contact us to discuss tailoring a presentation for your staff.
Lunch & Learn Topics:
Approaching Net Zero in Commercial Buildings
Aleka Pappas, Energy Engineer and Sue Reilly, President, PE
How do you achieve high energy savings results in your new construction or major renovations? What is the architect's role in this process? This presentation shows what strategies to use, and how to use energy modeling to inform the design process and help drive the project toward net zero energy. This presentation will also help you learn about Xcel Energy's Energy Design Assistance (EDA) program, which offers no-cost energy modeling, LEED energy credit documentation, a design team reimbursement and higher rebates in 2009. Enermodal Engineering is one of the providers selected by Xcel Energy, to provide this service at no-cost for qualifying projects.
Daylighting Analysis: How it Works, Modeling Tools, Cost-Effective Strategies
Elizabeth Gillmor, Lighting Designer
Well-designed daylighting just makes a space feel better! It’s one of the most cost-effective efficiency strategies, if it’s done right. Find out how daylighting analysis allows you to explore options for building and room shape, architectural features such as roof monitors and atria, as well as window sizing, placement and properties.
Better Buildings: Putting it All Together
Dennis Jones, Commissioning Services Director
Getting started in high performance design? We’ll walk you through how get a great building using LEED, energy modeling, daylighting analysis, and commissioning. And to keep your building running on track, add Monitoring & Verification (M&V) for longterm results. We’ll leave plenty of time to answer your questions and can address specific building types, if desired.
LEED 2009: What's New
Laura Charlier, LEED Services Director
Presenting a look at what's changed in LEED 2009, with new requirements for accreditation, as well as rating system changes. We also show a comparison of LEED-NC 2.2 and LEED 2009 rating systems, and cost-effective strategies. We present a case study of greening our own office and our progress toward earning LEED Platinum, under LEED 2009.
Commissioning New & Existing Buildings: What Architects Need to Know
Dennis Jones, Commissioning Services Director
When is the best time to start commissioning on new construction projects? Is enhanced commissioning worth it? And for existing buildings, what does recommissioning involve? What Xcel Energy programs are available to help pay for recommissioning? These are the questions that the commissioning team from Enermodal Engineering will answer during this one-hour session. Enermodal Engineering provides energy analysis, LEED project management and commissioning for new and existing buildings.
Energy Efficiency Opportunities: For Specific Building Type
We have decades of experience performing energy consulting and research on a diverse set of buildings. We can talk about a specific type to help you gear up for your next project: laboratories, libraries, K-12 schools, universities, municipal buildings, off-grid park visitor centers, and more!
