Decarbonising Commercial Real Estate: The Role of Operational Performance

Are you interested to learn how technology can help to optimise the performance of commercial buildings on the route to net-zero?

Join us to uncover how our digital twin technology can be utilised by building owners and occupiers to optimise operational building performance and improve energy efficiency before and after implementing net-zero retrofit measures.

1. DECARBONISING COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE: THE ROLE OF OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

2. Today’s Webinar Presenters  Ben Pettitt Sector Lead – Real Estate IES Laurie McKelvie Head of ICL Customer Success, IES Mark Gifford Associate Director, ICL Energy Services IES www.iesve.com

3. www.iesve.com About IES

4. “Inadequate initial commissioning, operational issues and real time performance degradation is estimated to increase energy consumption by 15 to 30 percent in commercial buildings.” CIBSE

5. The “Performance Gap” www.iesve.com Design for compliance culture in the UK Gap exists between designed and as built energy performance Increases of three to four times are not uncommon  Unregulated energy not accounted for in compliance models HVAC system and controls under-optimised Buildings operated for comfort

12. www.iesve.com Mark Gifford DEVELOPING A DATA STRATEGY

13. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) ESG is easy to talk about in boardrooms Green goals set for 2030, 2040, and 2050  But it's harder to deliver in practice  Moving from A to B on Net Zero Roadmap is easier said than done www.iesve.com A B theoretically A B actually

14. Role of Data Advise in roadmap development Improve operational performance Deliver internal conditions conducive to improved employee productivity Provide evidence for key decision making Timely decisions are key for meeting ESG goals and targets www.iesve.com

15. Data Is Complex

16. Data Challenges in Buildings Buildings are complex and dynamic  Competing priorities Accessibility and availability of data  Outdated building systems and infrastructure Stakeholder collaboration: landlord, tenant and FM  www.iesve.com

17. Data Responsibility Who is responsible for data (Owner / Operator etc)? Specification Collection Inspection Lack of data is not a problem, until it’s a problem Becomes a Supply Chain ‘blame game’  Engineering / FM / Sustainability / IT / Procurement Ultimately an overall lack of Contract + Language www.iesve.com

18. Data & Contracts Green Lease Minimum Requirement Sustainability data MUST be shared in both directions to facilitate optimal performance BMS Contracts Reliable transmission / SLAs / Uptime  Data sharing Open Comms Portals: BACnet, Modbus Energy Model Specification Model Ownership Access / Handover www.iesve.com

19. DATA AVAILABILITY / UPTIME Data Availability & Uptime

20. Developing a Data Strategy Collate data from all types/ages of systems   Utility meters, BMS, IOT   Right information at the right time   Trusted information   Effective decision making   Encourage behaviour change   Improve feedback loops  www.iesve.com

21. Buildings Producing Data  www.iesve.com Carry out gap analysis across large portfolios where no data is available Identify good and poor performers Data availability Energy benchmark across buildings Develop net-zero strategies of what needs to be done Electricity Consumption Data Asset Portfolio Natural Gas Consumption Data Electricity Consumption Data Natural Gas Consumption Data Electrical Sub-metering at floor level HVAC Plant Sensors & Meters No Data Available Temperature & CO2 Sensors

22. www.iesve.com Data Strategy Outcomes Achieve energy standards promised at design​ Identify performance drift​ Understand energy impact of comfort settings ​ Stop HVAC performance degradation​ Maximise value from FM maintenance contracts​ Track savings from improvement projects Utilise - not waste - design energy models​
