DOE to Host Pre-Better Buildings Summit 50001 Ready Workshop
A special pre-event Better Buildings Summit workshop will be held on Tuesday July 9, 2019 from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. EDT at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia. The workshop will discuss how hundreds of industrial, commercial, institutional, and federal sites are increasing energy performance and saving money through the implementation of the DOE 50001 Ready energy management system. This free, self-paced program leads to DOE recognition, and can be a powerful tool in meeting your energy goals and mission. The training will be led by Jay Wrobel, Manager of Facility and Fleet Optimization at FEMP, and Paul Sheaffer, Program Manager in the Building and Industrial Applications Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. To reserve a spot, email Pete.Langlois@ee.doe.gov.
Training Available for the Data Center Energy Practitioner Certificate
The main objective of the DOE's Data Center Energy Practitioner Program is to raise the standards of those involved in energy assessments of data centers. Training events, lasting one or three days, prepare attendees to perform accurate energy assessments of heating, ventilation and air conditioning; electrical; and IT systems, including the use of software tools. The gained skills of identifying and evaluating energy efficiency opportunities in data centers are applicable across both the federal and private sectors. The next two scheduled training events will take place in Washington D.C. on Friday, July 12, 2019 and in San Francisco, California on September 4-6, 2019. For more information, including tuition fees, please visit DOE’s Center of Expertise for Energy Efficiency in Data Centers.
FEMP Offers ESPC Training in Washington, D.C.
Register now to attend the upcoming ESPC training scheduled for July 16-18, 2019 in Washington, D.C. The three-day training course will educate attendees on how to implement energy and water projects through an ESPC, including a basic introduction to DOE indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contracts and how to get started with an ESPC project. Training sections will cover task order ordering procedures, contractor selection, energy saving technologies, energy and water resilience, risk and responsibility, measurement and verification, understanding task order schedules, pricing and financing aspects of the project, and post award contract administration. Participants will be able to initiate an ESPC with a Notice of Opportunity focused on individual agency needs. Registration is open to federal, DOE National Laboratory, and state and local government employees. Others may be considered on a case by case basis. Click here for more information and to register.
FEMP Continues to Seek Federal Sites Interested in Evaluating PV Performance
FEMP is seeking to partner with federal sites that have an on-site, government-owned photovoltaic (PV) system and are willing and able to share their PV’s annual performance data and system information. Interested sites will receive a summary and interpretation of their PV system’s performance, including generation and availability compared to expected values. At a minimum, FEMP will request general system information (e.g. location, size, orientation, tilt, and age) and hourly energy generation data of the PV system and/or information from an existing PV monitoring platform that tracks and stores hourly (or higher resolution) data. If you are interested in this initiative, please email rachel.shepherd@ee.doe.gov. This is an ongoing initiative, however FEMP is currently seeking participants for this fiscal year 2019.
