Energy Star and LEED EBOM: A Toolkit for Existing Buildings

When: Wednesday, March 3, 2010, 8:30 AM – 10:30 AM
Where: Temple University Center City (TUCC), 1515 Market Street, Room 222

Building Owners and Managers are currently faced with the challenge of making their existing buildings more energy efficient, while keeping a close eye on capital expenditures in an unstable economy. There are tools available to help you get started, but which ones should you be using?  Energy Star? LEED? This session will demonstrate how both of these tools are an important part of your toolkit and how you can use them to achieve favorable results. Andrew Kreider from the EPA will give you an overview of Energy Star Portfolio Manager, and Bill Craig from Re:Vision Architecture will review how LEED EBOM (Existing Building, Operations & Maintenance) tackles energy efficiency, and beyond. Marla Thalheimer, Sustainability Manager from Liberty Property Trust will provide an example of how Liberty is using these tools to measure, set goals and track the results throughout their portfolio. Together we’ll look at the advantages, the differences, and how they work together to ultimately create a high performance building.
