Roadmap to Energy Efficient Buildings™, Part III – Advanced Technologies

There's always 10% more... Part III of our Roadmap webcast series presents advanced energy management technologies that take building operations to another level. We'll demonstrate new software applications that collect and analyze operational data from thousands of points in a building in order to detect issues, patterns, and faults in real time. Learn how to gain detailed visibility into building systems and set rules that allow your building to run automatically and intelligently, based on your own performance and energy usage criteria. Also, learn about new fuel cell power solutions and on site sources of energy that reduce costs, add reliability, and support business continuity when the grid goes down!

Roadmap to Energy Efficient Buildings™, Part II – Energy Conservation Measures

Part II of our Roadmap series explores a number of energy conservation measures that can significantly reduce energy demand and consumption. Once you have conducted your initial energy assessment and baseline energy profile, you can begin to focus on specific areas for improvement, such as lighting, HVAC, building envelope, mechanical systems, advanced control strategies, water conservation, and other operational improvements. We'll present a comprehensive approach to energy management through integration of multiple solutions and strategies in order to gain maximum efficiency and savings, and share case studies of properties that have reduced 40% of their energy costs!

Smart Grid Impact on Intelligent Buildings (w/CABA)

The Continental Automated Buildings Association has completed a collaborative research study to identify, define and size the principle business opportunities presented by the growth of smart grids in relation to intelligent buildings. CABA's "Smart Grid Impact on Intelligent Buildings" research study estimates that the North American smart grid marketplace will reach $8 billion in revenue by 2013 and will exceed $10 billion by 2015. The study found that the fastest growing components of the smart grid market are grid applications, followed by: demand response and peak load management, building energy management systems, and smart meters. Join us for a full report of the findings from landmark research project.

Roadmap to Energy Efficient Buildings™ – Part I - Energy Benchmarking and Reporting

CoR Advisors presents a three part series on "The Roadmap to Energy Efficient Buildings™," beginning with energy benchmarking, monitoring and reporting. Part I of the series addresses the critical first step in energy management – establishing a baseline energy profile. This baseline can be used as a comparison against other properties, help identify initial areas for improvement, and serve as a means by which to measure the success of energy conservation measures. You'll learn how to capture real time energy data from your buildings and how to use that information to achieve better operational efficiencies. With many cities moving towards mandatory benchmarking and reporting requirements, it's important to understand the value of monitoring on a building-by-building basis, as well as being able to aggregate data across multiple properties.

Advanced Lighting Technologies

What are the biggest mistakes building owners and facility managers are making in lighting retrofits? How do you achieve maximum efficiency from your lighting system? If the only control feature on your lights is a manual on/off function, you still have a lot of work to do! Advanced lighting solutions incorporate energy efficient lamps with intelligent controls -- so that not only are you using less energy per fixture, but you are also using that fixture less. We'll discuss the benefits and ROI of lighting solutions and strategies such as daylight harvesting, task tuning, individual office controls, occupancy sensors, LEDs, and more. Join us for this session to learn how to slash lighting costs 50-75%!

Going Green: Separating Fantasy From Reality

The marketplace has been bombarded with thousands of products and services for energy management and "green" building solutions. But sometimes what works on the white board doesn't always play out as well in the field. This webcast will address a number of different technologies and solutions for energy efficient buildings and whether they fall under the category of "fantasy" or "reality" -- and why. We'll discuss the viability of solutions such as web-based HVAC optimization programs, wireless sensors and controls, net-zero energy buildings, smart grid integration, comprehensive carbon and energy reporting platforms, and more... from both a technical and economic perspective.

Analyzing Building Operations: What Do We Do With All This Data?

The market has become flooded with software solutions and dashboards that provide real-time monitoring of building operations. But how much data is too much data? What data is really important to effecting day-to-day operations of buildings? This session will discuss different ways to obtain and analyze building data in order to help you determine what really matters. We'll hear from real estate owners who have implemented advanced data analytics in order to successfully monitor, manage, and predict operational performance in their buildings – and we'll demo the latest in advanced analytics that take data management to another level.

Telecom 2011: Empowering Access to the Cloud

It started in the 1990s with high speed internet and smart buildings. Fast forward to 2011. The volume of data coming in and out of buildings has grown exponentially. More and more tenants require 100 Mbps of bandwidth (or higher!) for cloud computing and complex data applications -- and building owners are dependent on this technology for internal communications as well as system monitoring and controls. This session will discuss current and future requirements for bandwidth, as well as present the highlights and implications of a recent BOMA member survey regarding telecommunications needs and solutions.

The CIO and the PM: The New Dynamic Duo

With the integration of IT into building management and operations, the new building team includes not only the property manager, but now also the CIO. The role of the CIO in commercial real estate is quickly evolving from overseeing the fundamental network operations of the organization to developing the technology strategy for the operations of the buildings. The CIO and the IT team play a critical role in building management, as they are best equipped to automate building systems, obtain data from building controls and devices, and advise on how to maximize building operational efficiency. This session will discuss the importance of the CIO and the PM as a critical new partnership.

Supply Side Energy Strategies: Procurement, Demand Response, and On-Site Power

Building owners need to not only focus on reducing the demand for power in their facilities, but also understanding the economics and logistics associated with supply side energy strategies. With the cost of purchasing energy at a seven-year low, the value of aggressive and informed procurement strategies could save millions of dollars in energy costs. In addition, implementing a demand response program that sheds building load during peak energy times can provide additional savings and even income for many properties. We’ll discuss the benefits of supply side energy strategies from procurement to on-site power generation and alternative sources of energy in order to maximize the financial rewards that can be achieved with strong supply and demand energy management programs.

TESTIMONIAL
I attended the webcast on “Advanced Lighting Solutions” and found it to be very enlightening. The presenters used various visuals to demonstrate that a thoroughly integrated approach should include much more than simply a lamp replacement project – and economic benefits were clearly presented. I have attended several other CoR Advisors webcasts and found them all to be engaging and informative.
