Opportunities for Energy Efficiency in Buildings — Prof. Leon Glicksman
|
Residential and commercial buildings use 40 percent of US energy and over two thirds of our electricity. There are numerous opportunities to reduce the consumption including advanced technologies as well as traditional measures. These include renewable energy, cool roofs, natural ventilation and continuous commissioning. We will discuss the energy savings and economic implications of these choices.

Energy-Efficient Building Systems
|
Energy spent for powering buildings accounts for 40% ($320 billion) of the total U.S. energy expenditure. It is estimated that substantial savings of energy can be earned by using existing hardware, energy-efficiency modeling tools and algorithms (such as "Energy Plus") for retrofit of old and the design of new buildings. But much more can be achieved with modern analysis and control tools based on dynamic systems and control theory methodology, when these are used to optimize the performance of the building system. UCSB highlights the research, commercial, and government laboratory perspectives on the problem of energy-efficient retrofit and design of building systems. [10/2008] [Science] [Show ID: 14827]

Buildings That Think Green
|
Buildings are the SUVs of U.S. energy consumption, gobbling up 71 percent of the nation's electricity. In this Sept. 22, 2008 talk, Arun Majumdar, Director of Berkeley Lab's Environmental Energy Technologies Division, discusses how scientists are creating a new generation of net-zero energy, carbon-neutral buildings.
