About 13% of all energy produced in the United States today is used to heat, cool, and ventilate buildings. Furthermore, 37% of all energy used by commercial buildings goes toward HVAC - even greater for residences, at 40%. Much of this energy is wasted, being used when buildings are unoccupied or occupied well below the maximum levels for which they are designed. Occupancy-based HVAC control has significant energy saving potential. This seminar covers field testing results of occupancy-based HVAC controls in commercial buildings from ARPA-E SENSOR (Saving Energy Nationwide in Structures with Occupancy Recognition) Category D Teams.
