E nergy Management Plan & Policy

What is E nergy Management?

  • “Energy management is the proactive, organized

and systematic coordination of procurement, conversion, distribution and use of energy to meet the requirements, taking into account environmental and economic objectives”

Why ?

  • Why do we need energy plans and energy

management policies?

  • Energy management plans and policies are effective

strategies to influence day-to-day operations and behavioral practices

  • Low cost to implement
  • Can yield appreciable energy and maintenance cost

savings

  • Occupant satisfaction
  • Integration into sustainability plan

E nergy Management Plan

  • Document detailing how the energy goals will be

achieved

  • Establish goals, equipment parameters and usage,

facility

  • peration,

temperature setpoints, O&M procedures, new construction, etc.

  • Further details the responsibilities and roles of

different departments

  • Energy

Management Steering Committee, Energy Management Department, etc.

  • “Sustainability Plan” includes water management,

recycling, alternative energy, carbon footprint, etc.

E nergy Management Plan Specifics

  • Mission Statement
  • To be implemented within each of the facilities and/or

campuses; will produce a safe and productive environment for

  • ccupants,

while simultaneously providing prudent management of financial and energy resources.

  • Statement of Concerns
  • The [City/County/District] is concerned with current and

projected energy costs and power requirements due to current population growth patterns within the area.

  • It is within the best interest of the [City/County/District]

to conserve energy and natural resources.

Acceptable E quipment Parameters

  • Establish uniform temperature set points for all spaces
  • Occupied/unoccupied
  • Monitor and ensure other building parameters (humidity

levels, CO2, etc.) are within acceptable limits

  • Start/stop times will be adjusted seasonally to avoid

unnecessary runtimes

  • Holiday shut downs
  • Procedure for handling comfort complaint

Water Management Program

Establish a program to reduce water consumption. The following conservation measures should be employed:

  • Investigate the use of water conserving faucets, showerheads, and

toilets in all new and existing facilities.

  • Utilize water-pervious materials such as gravel, crushed stone, open

paving blocks or previous paving blocks for walkways and patios to minimize runoff and increase infiltration.

  • Employ Xeriscaping, using native plants that are well suited to the local

climate, that are drought-tolerant and do not require supplemental irrigation.

  • Utilize drip irrigation systems for watering plants in beds and gardens.
  • Install controls to prevent irrigation when the soil is wet from rainfall.
  • Establish a routine check of water consuming equipment for leaks and

repair equipment immediately
