The Industrial Workplace of Tomorrow

• Enhanced focus on internal operations/work
  environment and the impact of the facility on the
  external environment.

3
Key Issues that will Impact the Industrial
Workplace of Tomorrow

• Energy
• Efficient / Optimization
• Density
• Transportation
• Flexibility
• Smart Building / Real Time Monitoring
• Behavior Change
• Labor
• Carbon
• Regulations / Standards

4
Office Environment - What is on the Horizon?

• Continued Emphasis to Densify the Workplace
• Current workstation today 42-64sf
  6x8/7x7/8x8
• Access to windows/daylight
• Improved IAQ/ increase OA
• Casual collaboration areas Coffee bars w/ Wi-Fi,
  etc, etc
• Added teleconferencing/video conferencing areas

5
Production/Distribution Environment What is on
the Horizon?

• Global supply chain---network optimization
• Planning for natural disasters/business
  interruption
• Location is vital-- carbon impact on
  transportation
• Work force shortage
• Focus on internal productivity- partial
  conditioning
• Battery charging more quick charge systems/fuel
  cell
• Resource conservation/cascading energy
• Electricity, fresh water, carbon

6
Why Sustainable Buildings?

• Productivity in Industrial Environments

Energy will have a Major Effect on the Industrial
Workplace of Tomorrow

• Understanding/enhancing operating around energy
  use
• Rewards for capturing and utilizing waste and
  unused output
• Understanding carbon footprint will be key
• Regulations/standards will change -ASHRAE 2004 is
  becoming the defacto energy standard
• Smart Buildings-Real time resource use feed
  back
• Buildings will be branded and labeled based on
  their energy efficiency
• On-site renewable energy sources/utility plants
  will be prevalent geotechnical, solar, wind

Why Sustainable Buildings?

• Policy Direction/Regulations

• - Federal New Energy for America
• ..an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to
  reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 by 2050
• State California
• Zero Energy Residential Building by 2020
• Zero Energy Commercial Building by 2030
• City Chicago Climate Action Plan
• Retrofit of 50 of Existing Buildings to
• Reduce Energy Use by 30 by 2020

9
Why Sustainable Buildings?

• Branding

• Energy Labeling Energy Star
• ASHRAE
• EPA Climate Leaders Program

10
ASHRAE Tier I Energy Reduction

• Identify special problems or needs
• Determine the components of energy usage
• Review design versus actual usage of the space
• Review lighting schedule with occupancy schedule
• Check if exterior lighting is off by schedule
  during day time
• Check if maintenance program is carried out

11
ASHRAE Tier II Energy Reduction

• More detailed building survey and energy analysis
• A breakdown of the energy use within the building
  is provided.
• Identify and provide the savings and cost
  analysis of practical measures
• Maintenance procedures
• A listing of potential capital-intensive
  improvements that require more thorough data
  collection and engineering analysis judgment of
  potential costs and savings
• This level of analysis will be adequate for most
  buildings and measures

12
Lighting

• High efficiency Lighting
• Occupancy sensors
• Use of LED
• Inductively Coupled
• Electrode-less Lighting System
• 100,000 Hours Average Life
• (25years, 10 hours day)
• 76 Lumens Per Watt

Heat Recovery
Heat Wheels
Heat Pipe
Run-Around Coil System
Air to Air Heat Exchanger
14
Energy UseControl
Monitoring and Control

• Metering the Energy Consumptions
• Allow Demand Limiting
• Real Time Pricing with Smart Grid Technology

Strategies to Reduce and Reuse WaterWater
Reduction
Reduce the amount of water used for sewage
conveyance by toilets and urinals Reduce the
amount of potable water used by plumbing
fixtures Fixture Technology Showers to be
equipped with 0.5 gpm flow rate showers Toilets
to be dual flush and ultra low flow Consider
waterless urinals Public faucets to be sensor
operated with renewable power source
Hydro Powered Sensor Faucet Flowrate 0.17
gallons per cycle Uses water pressure to recharge
batteries
Waterless Urinal Flush Capacity 0.0
gallons Uses cartridge and eliminates need for
flushing
Aqua Helix Shower Head Flowrate 0.5
gpm Rotates at up to 1500 gpm and accelerates the
water flow through the shower head
Dual Flush Water Closet Flush Capacity
0.8 gallons or 1.6 gallons Provides user the
option to use less water
17
ASHRAE Tier III Energy Reduction

• Focuses on potential capital-intensive projects
• Detailed project cost and savings
