Energy Audits

Picture
The Ritz-Carlton Luxury Hotels Snapshot Energy Audits; All Properties, United States
Project Description: Conducted Snapshot Energy Audits, a scope of energy auditing specifically developed for the Ritz-Carlton luxury hotels brand, were performed to help each hotel develop a game plan of how/where to focus efforts on energy management and conservation especially as it results to impacts on guest experience. The audit targeted low-cost, capital, and behavioral recommendations for all hotel departments (facility/maintenance, culinary, housekeeping, event/banquet, and laundry). For properties that requested additional services, assisted with developing game (implementation) plans, reviewed common area utility allocations, conducted staff training, and did retro-commissioning.

Fayetteville State University Energy Study, Fayetteville, NC
Project Description: ASHRAE Level III Energy Study and energy modeling services for 18 campus buildings including administration buildings, classroom buildings, auditoriums, science labs, gymnasiums, and an events center, totaling 836,000 ft2.  In addition to ECM evaluation, this current project involves short-term monitoring of systems to identify opportunities and assist with baseline development, and creation of calibrated Trane Trace energy models.  The results of this effort will be used in the development of an energy savings performance contract.

Duquesne Light Demand Side Management, Pittsburgh, PA
Project  Description: Detailed energy studies (ASHRAE Level III) of two large hospitals, three university buildings, and a high rise office building totaling 1,756,850 square feet. Anticipated energy cost savings were $1,811,640 at an implementation cost of $3,511,926, for a total simple payback of 1.9 years.  Measures identified and analyzed included lighting retrofits, lighting controls, air handling unit optimization (economizer optimization, building static pressure control, supply and mixed air temperature reset), programmable thermostats, evaporator controls, HVAC equipment replacement, cold-water humidification, boiler stack heat recovery, general repairs, combined heat and power, variable-flow conversion, variable frequency drives on chillers and cooling tower fans, demand controlled ventilation, and kitchen and laboratory hood controls, among others.

Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California Energy Study; Carson City, NV
Project Description: Detailed energy study (ASHRAE Level II) of 17 tribal facilities totaling 107,554 square feet, including energy conservation and renewable energy measure analysis, as well as blower door testing and infrared thermal imaging.  Anticipated energy cost savings were $22,664 at an implementation cost of $201,369, for a total simple payback of 8.9 years.  Measures identified and analyzed included programmable thermostats, occupancy sensing thermostats, lighting retrofits, lighting controls, HVAC system equipment replacement, envelop insulation, demand controlled ventilation, evaporator controls, and preventative maintenance.

Picture
Leeville Underground Mining Operation Energy Study; Elko, NV
Project Description: Detailed energy study (ASHRAE Level II) of the Newmont Mining Corporation’s Leeville Underground Mining Operation, including energy conservation measure analysis for the underground and surface operations.  Anticipated energy cost savings were $304,171 at an implementation cost of $2,036139, for a total simple payback of 6.7 years.  Measures identified and analyzed included lighting retrofits and controls, programmable thermostats, airside economizers, heat recovery, variable frequency drives, heat recovery, microhydroelectric turbines, boiler stack economizers, infrared heaters, and production flow improvements.
