Safety, Efficiency and Sustainability in a Post-COVID World

The Smart Buildings Center invites you to attend this important discussion on the future of building occupancy. As you may or may not know, the #1 emitter of greenhouse gas emissions is not industry or transportation, its buildings, representing 39% of all global GhG. Furthermore, almost 75% of those building-based emissions come from day-to-day operations – heating, cooling, ventilating, and lighting. And to make things worse, it is estimated that about 30% of the energy used in buildings is wasted.

Why? One big problem is that buildings’ HVAC systems are often run with set schedules rather than being dynamic to reflect occupancy, usage, environment and other usage factors.

With information, like real time occupancy, buildings can be better managed in reducing CO2 emissions and saving energy. Join us Tuesday, October 19th at noon PST/ 3 pm EST for this lively panel discussion and learn about the latest technology and artificial intelligence solutions for running HVAC systems and building controls to optimize for energy savings and sustainability.

Key takeaways:

  • Learn how to reduce energy costs by 30 – 40%
  • Find out what it takes to be on the leading edge of sustainability innovations
  • Learn first-hand how customers are using this today to reduce their energy and C02 emissions
  • Know how to ensure optimal uptime, run efficiently and effectively for comfort and air quality

MODERATOR:

Melissa Sokolowsky, is a Senior Project Manager at the Smart Buildings Center, a project of the Northwest Energy Efficiency Council (NEEC) for incubating innovation and new technologies for the buildings industry.
