Seminar 45 -- ASHRAE's Latest Guides to Zero Energy Design PDF

This product is a zip file that contains files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker, PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3 format) as noted.

This session will present introductions and insights into three ASHRAE zero energy design guides. ASHRAE, in partnership with the USGBC, AIA and IES, created two Advanced Energy Design Guides, one for K-12 schools and one for Office Buildings. Strategies for achieving the AEDG energy targets will be presented as well as strategies for achieving success without increases in construction costs. The Net Zero Hospitals guide informs healthcare leaders about the environmental impacts of hospitals and sets out cost effective strategies to zero energy and zero energy cost. Furthermore, the guide assists in establishing zero energy road maps for hospitals.
