Book Advanced Energy Design Guide for K 12 School Buildings

Download or read book Advanced Energy Design Guide for K 12 School Buildings written by and published by American Society of Heating Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Energy Design Guide for K-12 School Buildings is the second in a series designed to provide recommendations for achieving 50% energy savings over the minimum code requirements of ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2004. The energy savings target of 50% is the next step toward achieving a net zero energy building, which is defined as a building that, on an annual basis, draws from outside resources equal or less energy than it provides using on-site renewable energy sources. ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2004 provides the fixed reference point and serves as a consistent baseline and scale for all of the 50% Advanced Energy Design Guides. This Guide focuses on K-12 school buildings and applies to all sizes and classifications (elementary, middle, high). Space types covered include administrative and office, classrooms, hallways, restrooms, gymnasiums, assembly, libraries, food preparation and dining areas. This Guide does not cover atypical spaces such as indoor swimming pools, wet labs, or dirty dry labs. The specific energy-saving recommendations are summarized in a single table for each climate zone and will allow contractors, consulting engineers, architects, and designers to easily achieve advanced levels of energy savings without detailed energy modeling or analyses. In addition, this Guide provides information on integrated design, including best practices, as a necessary component in achieving 50% energy including integrated-design best practices. A chapter on benchmarking and EUI energy targets can be used by teams who do not wish to follow the specific energy-saving recommendations. Those looking for help in implementing the climate-specific recommendations of this guide will find an expanded section of tips and approaches in the How to Implement Recommendations chapter. These tips are cross-referenced with the recommendation tables. This chapter also includes additional recommendations that identify opportunities to incorporate greater energy savings into the design of the building. Case studies and technical examples throughout the guide illustrate the recommendations and demonstrate the technologies in real-world applications.

Book excerpt: The Advanced Energy Design Guide for Small Retail Buildings (AEDG-SR) was developed by a partnership of organizations, including the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA), the United States Green Buildings Council (USGBC), and the Department of Energy (DOE). The guide is intended to offer recommendations to achieve 30% energy savings and thus to encourage steady progress towards net-zero energy buildings. The baseline level energy use was set at buildings built at the turn of the millennium, which are assumed to be based on ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings (refer to as the?Standard? in this report). ASHRAE and its partners are engaged in the development of a series of guides for small commercial buildings, with the AEDG-SR being the second in the series. Previously the partnership developed the Advanced Energy Design Guide for Small Office Buildings: Achieving 30% Energy Savings Over ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999, which was published in late 2004. The technical support document prepared by PNNL details how the energy analysis performed in support of the Guide and documents development of recommendation criteria.

Book Moving K 12 Zero Energy Schools to the Mainstream  Establishing Design Guidelines and Energy Targets  Preprint

Download or read book Moving K 12 Zero Energy Schools to the Mainstream Establishing Design Guidelines and Energy Targets Preprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: K-12 school buildings are ideal candidates to lead the market shift from buildings that consume energy to buildings that produce as much renewable energy as they use, and there are now resources available to guide owners and project teams as they make that shift. Chief among them is the Advanced Energy Design Guide for K-12 School Buildings: Achieving Zero Energy (K-12 ZE AEDG). Starting with a feasibility study to prove that zero energy schools were possible, a committee of industry experts used extensive energy modeling to create a set of energy use intensity allowances for school buildings such that on-site renewable energy could meet the buildings' energy loads . These energy targets were compared with the energy use intensities of a limited number of schools that have achieved very high levels of energy performance. The allowances represent a 'zero energy ready' (rather than zero energy) school, because in many situations the ability to use on-site renewable sources is limited by utilities, policies, or economics. From these targets, the guidance for achieving a zero energy school was created and developed into the K-12 ZE AEDG, which covers the process of designing and building zero energy schools from the perspective of an owner and a project team. The K-12 ZE AEDG advocates setting an absolute energy target before design begins. The K-12 ZE AEDG also contains practical, cost-effective strategies for achieving the energy target and outreach approaches and disseminating these market-friendly strategies to design and school owner communities.

Book excerpt: This Technical Support Document (TSD) describes the process and methodology for the development of the Advanced Energy Design Guide for Small Office Buildings (AEDG-SO), a design guidance document intended to provide recommendations for achieving 30% energy savings in small office buildings over levels contained in ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings. The AEDG-SO is the first in a series of guides being developed by a partnership of organizations, including the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc. (ASHRAE), the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA), the New Buildings Institute (NBI), and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Each of the guides in the AEDG series will provide recommendations and user-friendly design assistance to designers, developers and owners of small commercial buildings that will encourage steady progress towards net-zero energy buildings. The guides will provide prescriptive recommendation packages that are capable of reaching the energy savings target for each climate zone in order to ease the burden of the design and construction of energy-efficient small commercial buildings The AEDG-SO was developed by an ASHRAE Special Project committee (SP-102) made up of representatives of each of the partner organizations in eight months. This TSD describes the charge given to the committee in developing the office guide and outlines the schedule of the development effort. The project committee developed two prototype office buildings (5,000 ft2 frame building and 20,000 ft2 two-story mass building) to represent the class of small office buildings and performed an energy simulation scoping study to determine the preliminary levels of efficiency necessary to meet the energy savings target. The simulation approach used by the project committee is documented in this TSD along with the characteristics of the prototype buildings. The prototype buildings were simulated in the same climate zones used by the prevailing energy codes and standards to evaluate energy savings. Prescriptive packages of recommendations presented in the guide by climate zone include enhanced envelope technologies, lighting and day lighting technologies and HVAC and SWH technologies. The report also documents the modeling assumptions used in the simulations for both the baseline and advanced buildings. Final efficiency recommendations for each climate zone are included, along with the results of the energy simulations indicating an average energy savings over all buildings and climates of approximately 38%.

Book Strategies and Recommendations Based on ASHRAE Advanced Energy Design Guide 50 Percent Savings to Achieve Net Zero Energy for K 12 School Buildings in the State of Florida

Download or read book Strategies and Recommendations Based on ASHRAE Advanced Energy Design Guide 50 Percent Savings to Achieve Net Zero Energy for K 12 School Buildings in the State of Florida written by Ruthwik Reddy Pasunuru and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Net Zero energy is a topic that is trending in the construction industry. A sector of this Net Zero movement garnering attention is K-12 public school construction. Compared to other buildings, schools can achieve Net Zero Energy status more readily. Few governments have established initiatives to incorporate and implement Net Zero strategies in school design and construction. There are already 20 Net Zero schools in the US and the number is increasing rapidly. The state of Florida has many energy efficient schools but a Net Zero energy school has not been achieved in this part of the country. In this study, we discuss energy efficient design strategies for the schools and areas to be targeted in order to reduce the energy consumption based on ASHRAE's Advanced Energy Design Guide (Achieving 50% energy savings). Three case studies of popular Net Zero Schools in the country is also included. Energy performance of Alachua County's Meadowbrook Elementary School (K-5), which can achieve Net Zero Energy status with some proven and effective practices, is also discussed. Further recommendations could eliminate the gap between design and use with the help of energy modelling and simulation. Renewable energy production is provided by taking advantage of the Florida climate zone. The suggestions reviewed and applied in this paper will establish guidelines to all the prospective Net Zero energy schools in general and the Florida based schools in particular.
