[greenyes] ENERGY STAR Training for New Building Design

["Michael Segal" <msegal@no.address>]

Achieve Energy Performance Goals for New Building Design

Attend the next "Achieve Energy Performance Goals for New Building Design" Internet presentation on Tuesday February 10, 1:00-1:45 PM, EDT. This presentation describes how to use ENERGY STAR's software tool Target Finder, and how it complements energy simulation modeling and the LEED rating system. Target Finder takes rudimentary building and occupant data and yields the annual energy use value required if the building is to perform in the top 25 percent of U.S. building stock. The talk will also present strategies that will enhance performance and illustrates how building owners and designers can readily evaluate and achieve energy-based design targets. Decision-makers will learn how to set realistic goals for energy use and compare simulated results to their target. It will show designers how to compare energy simulation results to top performing buildings using Target Finder. The Target 
Finder and integrated design assistance has been developed for office buildings and other medium to large scale buildings such as schools, hospitals and hotels.

Attendees can receive 1 AIA CES Learning Unit in the Health, Safety, Welfare category
