9 Energy Star Portfolio Manager Enter consumptions of different utilities Energy conservation tool Comparison to other relevant buildings 69 or better required for LEED certification

10 Energy Audit Purpose- Increase efficiency/score Sustainable Engineering Group/MG&E Focus – Air Handlers – Electrical Systems – Controls – Lighting

11 VendingMiser Being installed at hospital and clinics 46% reduction in energy consumption $150/year energy savings $40-$80 maintenance savings

12 Construction Waste Management Plan Construction on new buildings/additions Refresh Program (in house) First priority- Minimize waste Second priority- Reuse materials Third priority- Recycle

13 Items to be recycled/disposed of responsibly – Ceiling tiles – Ballasts – Fluorescent bulbs – TVs/Electronics – Metals – Wood – Vinyl Flooring Construction Waste Management Plan

14 Air Quality Modeling Datasheet Exhaust fumes entering air intake Problematic hospital layout HEPA filters – Traps 99.97% of 0.3 micrometer particles Document differential pressures and complaints received
