We worked with NCSU personnel to identify candidate buildings based on energy use intensities, building automation system (BAS) interoperability, historical data, and tenant requirements. Our team then developed baseline metrics of energy and energy cost to be compared with future performance after the PCx process. We continuously collected BAS, environmental, and utility data and leveraged our professionals’ experience and knowledge of controls and HVAC systems. This allowed us to identify issues and opportunities for NCSU to improve building performance. We developed specific operational recommendations throughout the pilot project and facilitated implementation of no-cost and low-cost measures by in-house and contract personnel. Verification of measures was performed and is continuously monitored to confirm the achieved savings persist over time.
