Commissioning Seminar
2:00pm - 5:00pm

Making the Connection Between Energy and GHG



Sustainable design and operations has traditionally been constrained by financial return on investment. As we move into an era of emissions reporting, owners will need to pay close attention to how emissions will be a commodity that requires managing. This session looks at how Owners, Engineers, Commissioning providers and building managers will be affected.
Topics

Session 1 (2pm until 2:30)

Codes, Standards and Emission Reporting Requirements - What Does the Future Hold

What is new or expected for 2016, codes, standards and emission reporting requirements. MOE or senior official on overall policy.

John Godfree/Craig Golding

Session 2 (2:30 until 2:50)

Justifying Emissions with Energy Efficient CHP Plants

Combined Heat and Power plants are justified by lowered energy consumption and the subsequent reduction in operating costs. How will these plants comply with the impending GHG cap and trade legislation? Will this be the end for CHP plants in Ontario? Learn the basics of CHP plants and what the future could hold in the Cap and Trade environment.

Paul Leitch, UofT

Session 3 (2:50 until 3:10)

Benchmarking and Optimization Opportunities Through Existing Building Commissioning

The opportunity to implement smart building technology is playing a significant role in the implementation of Facility Improvement Measures for existing building commissioning. Data analytics are being applied which connect the financial model of a particular measure with real time resource consumption. This session will provide an overview of techniques applied during the EBCx process which support building reporting & benchmarking.

Chris Piche, Integral Group

Break 3:10 to 3:25

Session 4 (3:25 until 3:45)
Natural Gas Consumption, Carbon Credits and the Future of Natural Gas as a Viable Fuel


Mark Cammisuli, Enbridge Gas Distribution

Session 5 (3:45 until 4:10)
Owner’s Objectives in Meeting Emissions Reduction Targets


Philippe Bernier, Triovest

Session 6 (4:10 until 4:30)\
Ensuring Reductions are Sustained Over Time


Steve Taylor MMM
