Facility Energy Conservation Guidelines
For State Employees (msword 89.00 kB)
Cost-Avoidance Options
Because the State is a long-term tenant, it is a prime candidate for avoiding future housing costs. Functional enhancements and optional quality investments can increase a building's initial construction cost but they also reduce the additional year-to-year expense of owner occupancy. Universal tenant layouts, integrated technologies, better life-cycle materials and energy efficiency options are initial investments that reduce the overall long term cost of building ownership.
Return On Investment
By reducing the building's cumulative expenditures over a five year period, the additional investment of optional energy features pays for itself. After the tenth year of a state -owned High Performance Building, the cumulative cost avoidance benefit is approximately $477,000. Energy investment options include the following:
- System-wide computerized energy management
- Underground utility tunnel
- Low-E glass windows
- Double doorway (vestibule) at building entrances
- Motion detector light switches in each office
- Optional lighting levels with high efficiency components
- Installed glass office doors to transmit exterior light into interior area
- Energy star computers
Air Ventilation Reduction
Air ventilation was reduced from 1 cfm/sf to 0.8 cfm/sf. The cfm of the 80K Building has been decreased from 80,000 cfm to 60,000 cfm; the 100K Building from 100,000 cfm to 80,000 cfm.
Reduction In Outdoor Air Intake
By using a CO2 Demand Controller the outdoor air intake are reducing from 20 cfm to 13 cfm per person. Indoor air quality standards have still been maintained with this reduction. This amount also includes pressurization air for the building. This is when the building envelope maintains positive pressure to the outdoors by adding more air to the building than is removed through the exhaust system. This prevents outdoor air and moisture from entering the building.
