Prioritizing Persistence: Approaches and Technologies
that Enable Lasting Results

Jessica Granderson, LBNL
Peter Pollard, kW Engineering
Victor Gonzalez, PE, kW Engineering

Your building has been commissioned, now how do you keep results of those efforts from slipping away? Join Jessica Granderson, Peter Pollard and Victor Gonzalez to learn recommended persistence strategies for existing structures. Granderson will focus on energy information systems (EIS), covering recent technological advances and dozens of available solutions and product options. To alleviate the often difficult EIS evaluation and selection process, Granderson will present a framework that defines capabilities and characterizes these EIS systems. Case studies will be used to illustrate real-world EIS use.

Pollard and Gonzalez will discuss the challenges maintenance teams face in keeping a commissioned building operating at optimum levels. Their presentation will provide a wide scope of practical lessons learned in completing EBCx efforts and follow-up measurement and verification at firms such as AT&T and Cisco. They’ll share tips on how to best perform EBCx and how to present measures to encourage persistent savings to building operators.
