14 ASHRAE Overview Mission: To advance the arts and sciences of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration to serve humanity and promote a sustainable world. Vision: ASHRAE will be the global leader, the foremost source of technical and educational information, and the primary provider of opportunity for professional growth in the arts and sciences of heating, ventilating, air conditioning and refrigerating. 14

ASHRAE Overview Founded in 1894 56,500+ volunteer members in more than 130 countries 6,000+ student members 15 regions 183 chapters 300 student branches Industry

15 ASHRAE Overview Founded in ,500+ volunteer members in more than 130 countries 6,000+ student members 15 regions 183 chapters 300 student branches Industry Classification Consulting engineers Contractors Manufacturers Manufacturing representatives Government, health and education Design build Architects U.S./Canada (45,000+) Global (12,000+) 15

16 What We Do and How We Do It What We Do Serve as pipeline for technical information to members, chapters and companies Create standards and technical guidelines to serve built environment Offer continuing education for industry professionals Serve as networking tool for industry professionals How We Do It 27 standing committees 130 standards and guidelines committees 100+ technical committees 300+ publications Six certification programs 100+ educational courses Research 16

17 Standards 17

18 ASHRAE Standard , Standard for the Design of High-Performance Green Buildings Standard provides total building sustainability guidance for designing, building and operating highperformance green buildings Has broader scope than Standard 90.1 Partners with the International Code Council (ICC) for the International Green Construction Code (IgCC) Single resource on green buildings IgCC powered by to be published in summer

19 ASHRAE Standard 188, Legionellosis: Risk Management for Building Water Systems Beneficial for those in design, construction, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance and service of centralized building water systems and components Standard 188 establishes minimum legionellosis risk management requirements for building water systems This is the foundation of the CDC s Toolkit entitled Developing a Water Management Program to Reduce Legionella Growth and Spread in Buildings 19

ASHRAE Standard 90.4-2016, Energy Standard for Data Centers Standard 90.

20 ASHRAE Standard , Energy Standard for Data Centers Standard 90.4 was designed to ensure only the most inefficient data centers are non-compliant Is aggressive but has very achievable mechanical and electric efficiency requirements that save agencies money Data centers are often the largest energy users at an agency Works in concert with Standard

21 ASHRAE Standard , Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low- Rise Residential Buildings Standard 90.1 is a benchmark for commercial building energy codes ASHRAE has set forth efforts to address plug load reduction and help design teams account for them when evaluating building loads with Standard 90.1 Regulated loads are no longer included in a summary of energy savings in the Standard 90.1 revision in 2016 Plug loads will continue to be a critical component in achieving Advanced Energy Design Guides 21

22 Extending Our Community ASHRAE 2017 Building Performance Analysis Conference: September 27-29, 2017 Atlanta, GA Developing Economies: November 10-11, 2017 Delhi, India ASHRAE Winter Conference and AHR Expo: January 20-24, 2018 Chicago, IL. To Join or Renew - To Get More Involved

30 Viewpoint from the Energy Related Associations Advancing the Water Sector in EE & RE Adam T. Carpenter, American Water Works Association August 16, 2017 Tampa Convention Center Tampa, Florida

31 Overview of Water Sector 52,000 community water systems serve about 85% of the United States population. Several hundred serve more than 100,000 customers, many thousands serve fewer than 10,000. Also about 14,000 waste water treatment facilities 2-4% of nation s electricity use For broad adoption, solutions must be both cost effective and easy to implement larger utilities practice much greater sophistication in energy world. Often race to be second with new tech. 31

32 Major Sector Drivers $1 trillion needed in investment in nation s drinking water utilities over next 25 years Supply constraints driving sector towards lower quality source waters (more energy-intensive treatment) Need to manage water loss and improve conservation (water has embodied energy) Federal and state regulatory landscape remains complex 32

33 Sector Opportunities Water sector efficiency Water sector utilities. Use a lot of Electricity Routine, maintenance, and capital projects can reduce energy use or energy intensity Water utilities rarely get credit for these improvements Water utilities offer a gold standard for energy efficiency projects because they are monitored by trained staff complete capital projects that are long lived operate 24/7 are verifiable 33

34 Multi-Association Roadmap October 2016 multi-association plan serves as transition paper for sector Describes sector s energy use, past involvement, and opportunities for future Available on request 34

35 Building State Activities - California CPUC Water-Energy Calculator takes out much of the guesswork for energy savings of water efficiency Challenges implementing into EE programs Partnered with Southern California Edison and others to explore Water Loss Control Pressure Management Maybe others 35

36 Building State Activities - Texas Have worked with Texas EE administrators to propose pumps/motors and similar EE measures not previously available to the sector Challenges remain here and elsewhere, especially for more thorough programs 36

facilities 2 Journal-AWWA articles published discussing project and benefit/cost.

37 Building State Activities - Massachusetts Worked with staff at MassDEP, re-analyzed existing pilot program data Demonstrated $15 of benefit to society for every $1 spent on EE/RE at Water/Wastewater facilities 2 Journal-AWWA articles published discussing project and benefit/cost. Snow et al July DiBara et al October

38 Key Challenges Moving Forward Policy Challenges to overcome Free Rider or O&M requirements Public / Private entity concerns Uniform measurement methodologies needed Challenges demonstrating cost effectiveness outside of MA s methodology Case studies demonstrating sector incentives Local champions to work with their states 38

39 Better Plants DOE program provides tools, resources, technical support, and recognition of energy intensity improvements. Utilities set ambitious goals and report progress over time. How do we extend benefits from those participating to the thousands of utilities not involved? 39

40 Clean Water RFI AWWA among those who wrote comments on DE-FOA : Request for Information on Clean Water Technologies. R&D could lead to significant sector change in portions of energy profile. Encouraged broader look across water utility sector than narrow focus on desalination technologies - would allow larger number of utilities and proportion of the public to benefit. Full comments on under news. 40

41 Measuring Sector Efficiency Given substantial variability in types of treatment, topography, and other factors, currently lack many standard measures of efficiency Development of uniform measures of energy efficiency for the sector could catalyze substantial change DOE s Uniform Methods Project could be one venue for such development 41

42 Next Steps? Low cost energy in many areas good for bottom line, but limiting EE/RE opportunities Expected driver of major expansion of state programs is now largely absent How can we maximize, recognize, and reward energy savings of major sector trends? Questions? 42
