Workshops:
- ENERGY
STAR® Portfolio Manager Benchmarking Workshop
(FREE with advance
registration)
- TUESDAY, March 6, 1:00-3:00 pm -
Portfolio Manager provides an unbiased 1-100 energy
performance score and energy use intensity benchmarks
for commercial buildings. Buildings scoring a 75 or
higher on this scale are eligible to apply for the
ENERGY STAR certification for superior energy performance.
Participants in this workshop will gain hands-on experience
on how to benchmark several types of commercial buildings,
and will learn how Portfolio Manager can help in measuring
energy performance, setting goals, tracking savings,
and documenting and recognizing achievements.
- Retrofitting
Existing Buildings for Energy Efficiency and Demand
Response
(FREE with advance
registration)
- TUESDAY, March 6, 1:00-3:00 pm -
Compared with new facilities, existing buildings and
plants often have legacy equipment which waste energy,
require more maintenance, and incur more downtime.
A complete rip-out and replace strategy is cost prohibitive
and very disruptive to ongoing operations and occupants.
New non-invasive technologies now allow for retrofits
which take minutes to install and deliver substantial
savings with investment payback of less than 18 months.
This presentation, instructed by David Roberts of
Cypress Envirosystems, will cover actual case studies
and savings data related to HVAC, lighting, steam,
and compressed air retrofits.

Chapter Luncheon
(FREE

- THURSDAY, March 8, 11:30 am - 1:00 pm
-
CHP is gaining recognition not just as an important
tool in the drive to reduce energy costs and emissions
related to power generation, but also as a vehicle
to deliver substantial societal benefits including
increased industrial competitiveness, reduced healthcare
costs, job creation and improved grid reliability.
In order to derive these societal benefits, energy
policy makers must find a way to increase the level
of CHP adoption. In pursuit of these goals as embodied
in the NJ Energy Master Plan and the PA Marcellus
Utilization Committee Report, state legislative and
regulatory bodies are making efforts to spur CHP development.
Featured speaker, Gearoid Foley, Senior Advisor,
DOE’s Mid-Atlantic Clean Energy Application Center,
will review the latest developments in the policy
and regulatory environments in NJ, PA and MD including
new incentive programs and current initiatives.
