Building energy performance and durability are often undermined not by bad intentions, but by missed coordination between the building envelope, fenestration, energy modeling, and construction execution. This webinar explores five real-world building envelope mistakes that routinely inflate construction costs, oversize mechanical systems, and erode energy efficiency—often without being discovered until well after occupancy. Drawing from … Read more
Lighting design and implementation remains among of the most critical elements of energy effectiveness and sustainable architecture in both new construction and retrofit opportunities. Energy effective lighting design begins with a fundamental understanding of human perception and how we may use carefully targeted light to achieve visual goals while minimizing energy use and overall cost.This class … Read more
This webinar will describe the present funding landscape, highlight the most significant updates to tax credits, grants, and utility rebates, and offer practical guidance for accessing and stacking these resources. Recent federal policy changes, including the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, have reshaped the incentives and financing options available for energy efficiency projects. Learn what … Read more
This 90-minute webinar on May 15, with special guest Ben Roush of FSI Engineers, will summarize the “alterations” requirements of the Seattle and Washington state energy codes and offer suggestions for potential design solutions. It will provide an overview of Chapter 5, with a special focus on replacing existing gas or electric resistance space heating … Read more
Many commercial buildings waste energy by conditioning unoccupied spaces, because their HVAC systems lack occupancy sensors. A simple lighting retrofit can solve this problem, when the new networked lighting control (NLC) system provides occupancy data to the BMS. The DLC’s free Integration Toolkit can help you cut energy costs and stay ahead of Building Emissions … Read more
The March 20 webinar will cover HVAC provisions of the 2021 Seattle and Washington state energy codes for commercial and multifamily buildings, highlighting requirements that are new to this edition and the differences between the Seattle and state codes. Discussion topics will include the Total System Performance Ratio (TSPR), data center standards, restrictions on fossil … Read more
