    1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

    At the request of the Harvard Divinity School, Facilities Maintenance Operations (FMO) and the Office

    for Sustainability (OFS) jointly performed an ASHRAE Level II Energy Audit 1 at the AndoverTheological Library (Library). The structure includes a basement level and four floors above grade for acombined 58,250 square feet. The Library hosts over 62,000 visitors annually; the public stacks operate93 hours a week. Electric, steam, chilled water, and city water consumptions were evaluated for potentialenergy-saving opportunities. In fiscal year 2008, the Library spent $227,573 on all utilities.

    Sixteen (16) separate Energy Conservation Recommendations (ECRs) were identified with detailedimplementation costs and annual savings estimates. The annualized savings of all recommendations

    totals more than $41,000 (at current energy prices), with the potential to reduce total energy consumptionand GHG emissions by 22% from the FY08 baseline. If fully implemented, the payback period fromannual energy savings for these ECRs is estimated to be eleven months. Completion of these

    projects also makes the Library an excellent candidate for certification under the United States

    Green Buildings Councils LEED for Existing Buildings rating system 2.

    If submitted before June 1, 2009, there is also $10,388 available to perform the ECRs through NSTARsEnhanced Incentive Program, or $6,856 if submitted afterwards. These reduction opportunities aredetailed in section 4.2 of this report. Additionally, five (5) capital grade recommendations have been

    identified for further investigation and analysis. These items are detailed in section 4.3 of this report.

    The table below summarizes the recommendations and payback periods.

    2.0 BACKGROUND

    The Andover Theological Library (Library) is located at 46 Francis Street on the campus of the Harvard

    Divinity School in Cambridge. Constructed in 1910, the 58,250 square foot facility includes a variety ofspace types including library stacks, office space, and a computer lab. In 2005, the building underwent asignificant renovation that included upgrades to the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) andelectrical systems.

    2.1 Space Types

    The Library is comprised of stacks, office space, and computer lab space. In total, the stacks and office

    space comprise close to 99% of the buildings square footage. The table below reflects the square footageby floor of the three primary space types.

    The stack area of Andover serves a number of functions for the faculty and students of the DivinitySchool, including: archives for an abundant amount of research material, support space for computer,printing and copying services, and corral space for graduate students.

    2.2 Occupancy and Use Schedules

    The stack and computer lab spaces operate 93 hours a week, while the office spaces are typical occupiedduring regular business hours for an average of 50 hours per week. These differences in occupancyacross space type are leveraged in several energy conservation strategies included in this report.

    2.3 Recent Building System Upgrades

    The mechanical and lighting systems benefit from a number of energy efficiency measures incorporatedas part of the 2005 renovation. For instance, the ventilation in the Old Stack area is modulated based onmeasured CO2 concentrations. This demand controlled ventilation is designed to ensure the appropriateamount of fresh air is entering the stacks based on occupancy, reducing unnecessary heating and coolingof outside air. A timer scheduled to operate during library hours also controls the lighting systemthroughout the Old stack area. The energy reductions realized by these recent renovations help theLibrary to benchmark well against similar buildings

    2.4 Energy Use Index

    Currently, the Library has an Energy Use Index (EUI1) of 193.3 kBtu per square foot. Based on currentutility costs, this equates to $4.02 per square foot. The chart below summarizes the current, as well as thehistorical energy use indexes and utility costs of the Library.

    While the University-wide 30% reduction in GHG emissions by 2016 is not intended to be

    interpreted as a strictly school or building-based goal, when applied to Andover Library the

    buildings EUI target becomes 145.3 kBtu per square foot.

    Nationwide benchmarking indicates that the Library is operating better than 52% of libraries comparablein size, occupancy, and scheduling. If the building implemented all of the ECRs identified in this report,it would be operating superior to 69% of comparable libraries. If the building was operating at itsGreenhouse Gas Reduction Goal kBtu per square foot target, it would be functioning better than 76% ofcomparable libraries. Both of these operational efficiency standards would satisfy the Minimum Energy

    Performance Prerequisite of LEED for Existing Buildings: Operation and Maintenance Rating System.

    3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION

    3.1 Audit Team

    Harvards Energy Auditing Services is the result of collaboration between Facilities MaintenanceOperations (FMO) and the Office for Sustainability (OFS). Tony Ragucci, Associate Director of FMO,served as the program manager. Kevin Sheehan of FMO led the technical equipment review. KevinBright of OFS assisted on inspections and drafted all report findings, and Greg Kousidis and John Ritz,both technicians in FMO, provided field support.

    3.1 Audit Process

    To begin the audit process, the team collected historical energy data and floor plans for the Library. Thesquare footages of various space types were determined for benchmarking purposes and the size andlocation of pertinent mechanical equipment documented.

    The audit team visited the Library over the course of three and half weeks in March and April, collecting

    specific information on the mechanical, lighting, and plumbing systems as well as occupancy, scheduling,and use patterns. Temporary measurement equipment was installed on electrical panels to trend usageand identify specific energy conservation opportunities. A visual inspection of the building envelope,with focus on window and door systems, was performed. The audit team also incorporated the results ofa recent infrared thermographic building efficiency report (see Appendix C). Ultimately, eachrecommendation was priced and energy savings and payback estimates calculated.

    The submittal prepared by the audit team exceeded ASHRAE Level II Energy Audit standards due

    to enhanced utility monitoring and greenhouse gas reduction reporting. More information regardingthe submittals and data collection necessary for an ASHRAE Level II Energy Audit can be found inAppendix E.

  • 8/6/2019 Andover Library Audit

    8/62

    4.2 Low Cost Energy Conservation Recommendations

    ECR-1

    Existing Condition: Simultaneous Heating and Cooling

    A number of the Siemens hot water valves located in the Old Stacks area have failed open. The baseboardshould only be heating when the space temperature of the stack area falls below 60 F. The audit teamvisited the stack area when AHU-2 was discharging air at 65 F and 84 F. The baseboard heating wasoperating in both circumstances. A Siemens representative walked the space and confirmed that thevalves were not operating properly.

    Recommendation: ECR#1 recommends that the existing Siemens hot water perimeter valves be reset tothe lowest allowable temperature set point of 60 F. This would operate the hot watersystem as a backupheating system to AHU-1. According to the operations staff, an ideal temperature for the space is 60 F.For this reason, we recommend using AHU-1 as the primary means to maintain that temperature and onlyoperate the baseboard heating system to meet a supplemental load. The audit team recommendsaddressing this item before the swing season approaches in order to minimize unnecessary chilled waterconsumption.

    Implementation: The pricing for this recommendation assumes the cost to reset the temperature controlpoint of the valves and thermostats to be $1200. The savings analysis assumes that 10 feet of baseboardon each floor is operating continuously 180 days of the year.

    ECR-2

    Existing Condition:Un-insulated PipingIn the Old Stack area there is approximately 590 feet of copper piping ranging from (1/2 4) inch in sizethat are un-insulated. The heat loss to the conditioned Stack Area is estimated to be 48,706 Btu/hr.Separate visits to the building confirmed hot water flowing through a portion of this piping despite a

  • 8/6/2019 Andover Library Audit

    9/62

    within the stacks and heating hot water temperature of 180 F. As a number of hot water valves wereoperating permanently open, the savings calculation assumes that hot water is flowing through the pipes24 hours a day, 180 days per year in its current state.

    ECR-3

    Existing Condition:Equipment Operating During Unoccupied HoursAHU-1 is a 100% outside air unit operating 24/7/365. Electric demand profiles measured by FMO verifythis condition. The building is scheduled to be unoccupied 75 hours a week. AHU-1 has a 10horsepower (HP) supply fan, a steam preheat coil, a chilled water coil, and a steam reheat coil. Attachedto the discharge air ductwork are two electric heaters used for reheat when the district steam is notavailable.

    Recommendation: The unit should be shut down during unoccupied library hours. This will allow thebuilding to conserve energy by reducing electric, steam, and chilled water consumption during off-hours.

    Implementation: The cost estimate includes the time it would take to reprogram AHU-1 to shut downduring off-hours. The annual energy savings are based on AHU-1 being off during unoccupied hours.Energy and cost savings are based on an average outdoor winter temperature of 39 F and an averageoutdoor summer temperature of 69 F. The Library is scheduled open 350 days a year for an average of

    13.3 hours each day.)

    Note: Following review of Andover Library Preliminary Audit Report, building manager

    immediately made the recommended change to the operating schedule for this equipment.

    ECR-4

    E i i C di i Ob l d

  • 8/6/2019 Andover Library Audit

    10/62

    Recommendation: ECR #4 recommends the conversion of the bathroom fixtures and fittings describedabove with the following: nine low flow dual flushometers (1.6/1.1 GPF), eight 0.5 GPM aerators, andone ultra low flow 0.125 GPF urinal.

    Implementation: The budget estimates the price to furnish and install the new flushometers, aerators, andurinal, as well as the disposal of the old fixtures and fittings. Fixture and fitting usage patterns are basedon guidelines provided by the USGBCs LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations and MaintenanceRating System.

    ECR-5

    Existing Condition:Lack of Automatic ControlsAHU-1 provides ventilation for nine small FCUs and AHUs throughout the New Stack space. The smallFCUs and AHUs operate on the same schedule as the Library, although they serve offices and storagespaces located on floors 2, 3 and 4 that are typically unoccupied after 6 p.m.

    Recommendation: Install automatic control dampers on the fresh air ducts that ventilate the spacesserved by these smaller fan coil and air handling units. Program the thermostats to shut down the fansand their respective outside air dampers during unoccupied hours or as needed to maintain unoccupiedsetpoints. Reductions in outside air flow will enable AHU-1 to modulate down with the installation of aVariable Frequency Drive (VFD) lowering electric, steam, and chilled water costs. There are a total of 43hours each week where these smaller units are ventilating unoccupied spaces.

    Implementation: The cost estimate includes the price to furnish and install the VFD, automatic controldampers and wiring as well as the expense to reconfigure the control system. The reduction in electric,steam, and chilled water consumption reflect an assumed 30% reduction in annual air volume from AHU-1 when operated with a VFD. Incentives totaling $3,150 are available through NSTARs EnhancedRebate Program until June 1, 2009.

    ECR-6

  • 8/6/2019 Andover Library Audit

    11/62

    Recommendation: Install automatic control dampers for the lower levels of the Old Stack area to allowAHU-2 to ramp down when the library is closed or when its temperature set points are satisfied. Thischange will save a substantial amount of electricity, steam, and chilled water, as the unit is fairly large,

    and currently operates year-round. The audit team recognizes the importance of moving air over the rarebooks for preservation purposes; however, reducing ventilation of the bottom levels of the Old Stack areais also an energy conservation opportunity.

    Implementation: The cost estimates the price to furnish and install two VFDs, automatic controldampers for the supply ductwork, and wiring, as well as the expense to reconfigure the controls.Installing the VFDs and automatic control dampers is estimated to allow the unit to function 30% lessthan its current operation. The savings documented in the table above reflect these assumptions.Incentives totaling $6,450 are available through NSTARs Enhanced Rebates Program until June 1, 2009.

    Note: Following review of Andover Library Preliminary Audit Report, building manager

    reported that the location for rare book collection will be studied more comprehensively

    in the coming year.

    ECR-7

    Existing Condition:Excessive Static Pressure DropAHU-1 has a primary and secondary set of filters. The primary filter is a two-inch thick filter with aMERV 8 rating and the secondary filter is 12-inches thick with a MERV-13 rating. Combined, the two

    filters create a static pressure drop of 0.63 inches.

    Recommendation: Replace the primary and secondary filters with a single 2-inch thick electro-staticallycharged filter. This alteration will lower the static pressure drop in the unit by 0.3 inches to 0.33 inches.Lowering the static pressure drop will allow the supply fan in AHU-1 to operate against less resistance,saving electric motor energy.

    Implementation: The price includes the cost to remove the existing filters, the premium for thereplacement filter, and the time needed by operations personnel to change the supply fan motor speedaccordingly. There are no NSTAR rebates available for this recommendation. The audit teamrecommends the electro-static filters be tested on AHU-1 to determine if they perform comparably to thecurrent filters (filter capacity, service life) while successfully lowering the static pressure drop beforeconsidering for AHU-2.

  • 8/6/2019 Andover Library Audit

    12/62

    Existing Condition:Excessive Static Pressure DropAHU-2 has a primary and secondary filter bank. The primary filter is a two-inch thick filter with a MERV8 rating and the second filter is 12 inches thick with a MERV-13 rating. The secondary filter bank has a

    static pressure drop of 0.37 inches.Recommendation: Replace the secondary filter bank with a comparably-sized 12 inch secondary filterthat has a static pressure drop of 0.31 inches. This alteration will lower the static pressure drop in the unitby 0.05 inches. Lowering the static pressure drop will allow the supply and return fans in AHU-2 tooperate against less resistance, saving electric motor energy.

    Implementation: The price accounts for the cost to furnish and install the new filters, as well as performthe mechanical work necessary to change the supply and return fan motor speeds accordingly. There areno NSTAR rebates available for this recommendation. If the electro-static filters perform well in AHU-1,the audit team recommends the operations staff evaluate the possibility of replacing the primary andsecondary filter systems with a single electro-statically charged filter bank in AHU-2 to realize furtherelectric savings.

    ECR-9

    Existing Condition: Computer Terminal Stations left on during Unoccupied Hours

    After completing an audit of the computer lab, 19 of 20 computer terminal stations were found to be onduring unoccupied hours. Signage throughout the Library asks visitors to Log off computers when they

    are done using them. The Andover Library contains a total of 99 desktop computer stations, althoughonly the units in the computer lab were surveyed.

    Recommendation: Library staff should educate occupants and remind visitors, students, and staff shutdown all desktop computers at the close of each day. An additional means to ensure shut down is toinstall software that automatically places the computers in sleep mode and/or shut down at the end of eachday.

    Implementation: The budgetary estimate includes the cost to create and place new signage throughoutthe Library as well as purchase a software program to ensure the Librarys computers enter sleep mode orare shut down at the end of each day. The electric savings are calculated based on estimates that CPUsconsume 77 watts when left logged on and monitors consume 44 watts in screen saver mode. Wattagesavings were calculated by assuming the 19 computer terminals would be shut down on an average of10.7 hours each day.

    ECR-10

    Existing Condition:Lack of Automatic ControlsThe main corridors of the Old Stacks contain fifty (50) linear fluorescent T8 lamps. The bottom threefloors are open to the public and the lighting in these areas is controlled by a time clock set to the library

    schedule, while the light fixture for each stack aisle is operated by pull chain switch. The top two floorsof the Old Stacks are secured and the lamps in the three main corridors are controlled by a wall switch oneach floor. Like the lower floors, the light for each stack is operated by pull chain switch.

    Recommendation: Convert the Old Stack lighting controls from wall switches or time clocks tooccupancy sensors. By installing nine hall occupancy sensors, these lamps will turn on only when aperson enters the stack area.

    Implementation: The cost estimate accounts for the price to furnish and install the occupancy sensors,

    and perform and rewiring necessary in the Old Stack area. The Lamps in the Old Stack area are estimatedto be shut off an additional six hours a day. Incentives, totaling $337, are available through NSTARsEnhanced Incentives Program until June 1, 2009.

    ECR-11

    Existing Condition:Lack of Automatic ControlsThirteen (13) wall sconce fixtures are used to illuminate a south-facing staircase in Andover Library. Thelights are controlled by a set of wall switches located on each floor. Each fixture contains two 26-watt

    compact fluorescent lamps. The staircase itself contains a large area of glazing that extends from the firstto the fourth floor.

    Recommendation: Convert the lighting controls for the wall sconce fixtures from wall switches to aphotocell in order to account for daylight in the space. The wall sconce fixtures will only be activatedwhen there is not ample daylight to illuminate the staircase. The stairway also contains a linearfluorescent lamp on each floor that provides enough light to meet minimum foot-candle building code

    ECR-12

    Existing Condition: Office Equipment left on during Unoccupied Hours

    The Library contains 15 large appliances for printing and copying purposes including: 4 large printers, 4small printers, 6 copiers, and 5 card swipe machines. These pieces of office equipment in sleep mode

    draw 20 watts, 10 watts, 10 watts, and 17 watts, respectively.

    Recommendation: Install a timer on these appliances to make sure that they are off when the Library isclosed. By plugging these appliances into one power strip and plugging the power strip into a timer, theappliances will shut down during off-hours.

    Implementation: The cost estimate includes the price to furnish and install six timers and surgeprotectors in the five copy or printing rooms in the Library. The payback estimate assumes that the officeequipment is operating in sleep mode when the library is unoccupied 365 days a year.

    ECR-13

    Existing Condition:Lack of Automatic ControlsOffices located on the third floor of the New Stack area contain four 32 watt T8 lamps. The lamps arecontrolled by a light switch nearby each entrance. Each office contains an estimated 40 square foot east-facing window.

    Recommendation: Convert the office lighting controls from a wall switch to an occupancy sensor withphotocell capability to turn off the lights when a room is unoccupied, or when there is ample daylight tothe space.

    Implementation: The cost estimate includes the price to furnish and install the sensors in the third flooroffices of the Library. Payback calculations assume that the lights in each office would be turned off 3hours per day.

    Existing Condition:Lack of Fan Coil Unit ControlsSeveral Honeywell programmable thermostats had improper time and unoccupied setpoints. Multiplethermostats were operating the fans in unoccupied modes.

    Recommendation: Program the Honeywell thermostats to turn off the fans during unoccupied periods.By utilizing the Intelligent Fan Function and readjusting the times and setpoints of programmable

    thermostat, the building will maximize electric savings.

    Implementation: The budgetary price includes the cost to reprogram the twenty-nine (29) Honeywellthermostats to use the Intelligent Fan Function. Electric savings are estimated using the followingassumptions: (1) a typical workday ends at 6 p.m.; (2) the affected offices are closed 2 weeks a year; and(3) the offices are unoccupied on Saturdays and Sundays.

    4.3 Capital Grade Measures Requiring Further Analysis:

    ECR - 17 Install Automatic Control Dampers on fresh air ducts to modulate based on officeoccupancy and replace programmable thermostats with wireless Siemens control

    points.

    This recommendation is an alternate to ECR-5 and suggests installing automatic control dampers for thefresh air ducts dedicated to all office spaces, including fan coil units, AHUs, and local ventilation. Theventilation of the spaces will be controlled with motion sensors. AHU-1 will modulate based on systemstatic pressure saving electric, steam and chilled water. The installation of twenty-nine (29) Siemenswireless thermostats is also integrated into this analysis. This recommendation requires further analysis ofbuilding occupancy patterns to calculate costs and estimated paybacks.

    ECR - 18 Evaluate the appropriateness of the Old Stacks area as a depository for rare books

    After completing the walk-through of the Old Stacks area, the audit team questioned its suitability as adepository for aged and rare Divinity School documents. The Old Stacks core and shell have not beensubstantially renovated since its construction in 1910 nor is the HVAC system capable of delivering theenvironmental conditions needed to preserve the rare book collection. The audit team recommends theDivinity School evaluate the benefits of storing these items on campus against the cost of running AHU-2year-round to provide a less than ideal environment for the rare books collection. The electric cost of

    running the supply and return fans of AHU-2 year-round costs the Library over $26,000 annually.

    ECR 19 Evaluate the operation of the Hot Water and Chilled Water Pumps

    The 10 HP chilled water pump has been observed operating continuously at 50 hertz (208 volts / 21Amps) defeating the value of the variable speed drive. The audit team recommends inspecting the controlvalves throughout the facility and adjusting both the hot water and chilled water pump controlsaccordingly. Operating properly, the variable frequency drive will help conserve energy by reducing the

    pump output when load is low.

    ECR 20 Review the application of the Electric Heaters on AHU-1 and AHU-2

    AHU-1 has two electric heaters in the supply air ductwork and AHU-2 has one 60 kW heater in thedischarge air ductwork. AHU-1 has a steam preheat and reheat coil, while AHU-2 has a steam reheat coilin order to temper air delivered to the office and stack spaces. Currently, the electric heaters are in theoperational mode and can turn on if the building ever needs supplemental heating. The audit teamrecommends the electric duct heaters be interlocked with the steam controls and adjusted accordingly.

    ECR 21 Install a steam meter dedicated to Andover Library

    The Library currently shares a steam condensate return meter with Andover Hall. The audit teamrecommends installing metering dedicated to the Library in order to better track steam usage. It isdifficult to quantify the steam usage of each building and challenging to locate the source of a problem

    The slope of the line in each chart represents the incremental energy consumption for Heating orCooling Degree Days. The intercepts represent the non-heating/cooling, or weather independent,load in MMBtus (for steam) or Ton-Days (for chilled water.)

    R2 indicates the confidence level between the two variables in each chart (the relationshipbetween the number of heating degree-days and steam usage or the number of cooling degree-days and chilled water use at the Library.) An R2 value above 0.75 typically indicatesconsumption is closely related to weather conditions. Clearly, the R2 value of 0.83 for steam usereflects a strong correlation between the Librarys steam use and heating degree-days. However,the extremely low R2 value of 0.11 on the chilled water system for the same period shows that useis not closely correlated to weather conditions. This indicates there may be simultaneous heatingand cooling or some other problem and should be investigated further.

    5. 9 Energy Use and Cost Indices by Fiscal Year

    Calculating historical energy usage on a square footage basis is a requirement of an ASHRAE Level II

    audit. The table below displays the energy performance data in consumption and cost per square foot.Similar to the data above, there is a considerable variation in the utility costs at the Library in each fiscalyear.

    Between 2006 and 2007, utility costs increased by $0.88 per square foot, and from 2007 to 2008 droppedby $0.45 per square foot. As documented in the table above, this is largely due to the fluctuating steamand chilled water usage over this period. These variations are not correlated to historical weatherconditions (see Heating and Cooling Degree Day Charts). The absence of any utility submeters in theLibrary makes it difficult to determine the precise cause for these fluctuations. However, the Regression

    Curves included in Section 5.3 of this report point to the possibility of simultaneous heating and coolingtaking place. The annual cost indices for the Library, in dollars per square foot, are highlighted in red.

    The Library is ventilated with two air-handling units (AHUs). AHU-1 is located in the attic of the NewStacks area. The unit delivers 100% outdoor air at the rate of 6300 cfm to the New Stack area andtypically operates 93 hours a week. It has a 10 HP motor that operates the supply fan. This unit also hasa face and bypass arrangement containing a steam preheat coil, chilled water coil, and steam reheat coil aswell as two discharge air electric reheats. It contains a 2 Aerostar prefilter, and a 12 Durafil ESsecondary filter.

    AHU-2 serves the Old Stack area, delivering 13,000 cfm 24/7/365. It has 20 HP supply fan motor and a 5HP return air fan. The unit has mixed air control, a chilled water coil, and a steam reheat coil as well asone 60 kW electric discharge air duct heater. It contains a 2 Aerostar pre-filter and a 12 Durafil ESsecondary filter.

    6.4 Chilled Water Metering

    The chilled water metering consists of an ultrasonic flow meter and a supply and a return temperature

    transmitter. These utility grade meters are maintained by the UOS Engineering & Utilities group and areused for billing chilled water use by ton-day.

    6.5 Steam System

    District steam is supplied from Harvards distribution network. The Library is fed through a 6 steam lineand operated at 100 psig. There are twenty-one (21) steam traps in the building. The buildings operatingsteam pressure is reduced to 10 psig through a series of pressure reducing valves. The steam is used forHeating Hot Water through a steam-to-water shell and tube heat exchanger (HX-1) located in thebasement of the Library. Steam is also used in the heating coils of the buildings two AHUs.

    Steam consumption is calculated based on the volume of returned condensate. The Library shares acondensate return meter with Andover Hall (located in the basement). Metered usage is allocated to eachbuilding based on square footage.

    6.6 Condensate System

    The condensate system has a receiver with two 1.5 HP condensate pumps. Condensate is pumped toAndover Hall for metering as described above.

    6.7 Control System

    A Siemens Building Controls System controls all of the primary mechanical systems. Fan coil units thatsupply the office spaces, copy rooms, and study rooms are not on the Siemens control system. Instead,these spaces are controlled by twenty-nine (29) individually programmable thermostats. The head end of

    the Siemens control system is located in the office of the Building Manager and is not monitored orcontrolled remotely. The audit team recommends that all campus building automation systems beconnected to the Harvard Operations Center to improve monitoring, control, information backup andemergency response. The documented sequence of operations was not available to review by the auditteam. Further existing building commissioning opportunities can be identified from this review.

    6.8 Thermal Scan

    A thermal scan of the building was performed by UOS on January 26, 2009. The thermograph identifiestemperature differentials of at least 10 F and displays these differences through changes in image color.High and low temperature differentials are called out. This information was used to help identify an un-insulated panel in the penthouse of the New Stack area (see ECR-16). Photos are in Appendix section10.2.

    7.0 LEED FOR EXISTING BUILDINGS O&M

    7.1 LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance (LEED EBOM)

    Certification

    This rating system is provided by the USGBC to recognize buildings that meet their green operations andmaintenance standards. Similar to the programs for New Construction or Commercial Interiors, LEEDEBOM provides credits to buildings who meet their standards in the following categories: SustainableSites, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Materials and Resources, Indoor EnvironmentalQuality, and Innovation in Operations.

    7.2 LEED EBOM: EPA Portfolio Manager

    As part of the energy audit process, the audit team created a Portfolio Manager account for the Library,approximated the buildings current credit total, and estimated its certification level.

    EPA Portfolio Manager is a database organized by ENERGY STAR to allow buildings to benchmarktheir energy performance against similar buildings across the United States. In order to achievecertification under the Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance Rating system, the building needsto achieve a minimum energy performance threshold defined by LEED and Portfolio Manager. The level

    of performance, reported in thousands of Btus per square foot, varies based on the type of spaces andfunctions of the building.

    After compiling utility bills, square footages, and other basic building information, the audit teamconcluded that the Andover Library is performing favorably when compared to similar buildings. Itsbaseline weather normalized energy use index (EUI) is 207.5 kBtu per square foot. The audit teamselected ending its baseline period in December of 2006 in order to correlate any energy savings to theUniversitys Greenhouse Gas Reduction Goal.

    As of March 31, 2009, the Library has a weather normalized EUI of 193.3 kBtu per square foot. In orderto reach the prerequisite for LEED EB certification, the Library needs to realize a 20% reduction in theirenergy use index. The building needs to lower its EUI by an additional 13 kBtu per square foot (to 181kBtu per square foot) to become certifiable. Instituting all of the energy conservations recommendationsidentified by the audit team will reduce the EUI by 42.5 kBtu per square foot (to 150.8 kBtu per squarefoot) and earn 5-6 points towards LEED: EBOM certification.

    7.3 LEED EBOM Credit Totals

    In order to satisfy key prerequisites for LEED EBOM certification, Andover would need to install adedicated steam meter, meet LEED EBOM Minimum Energy Performance levels, and verify that thebuilding is ventilating to ASHRAE 62.1 Guidelines. The current credit total, estimated by the audit team,is 42. There are 51 credits identified as maybes and depend on decisions made by the operations staff

    53/62

    A. General The deliverables from the Level II should include a written report detailing

    the findings from the analysis.

    B. Deliverables Consistent with the ASHRAE Procedures for Commercial Building EnergyAudits, the Level II Energy Survey and Engineering Analysis will includebut not be limited to the following criteria:

    1. Review mechanical and electrical system design, installed condition,maintenance practices, and operating methods.

    2. Review existing operating and maintenance problems. Determineplanned building changes.

    3. Measure key operating parameters and compare to design levels, forexample, operating schedules, heating/cooling water temperature, supplyair temperature, space temperature and humidity, ventilation quantities,and light level at the task. Such measurements may be taken on a spotbasis, or logged, manually or electronically. Determine the sufficiencyof ventilation as required by ASHRAE 62.1 and thermal comfort

    bandwidth based on ASHRAE 55. There should be a survey of tenantcomfort.

    4. Prepare a breakdown of the total annual energy use into end-usecomponents, including plug loads, as illustrated in the 2007 ASHRAEHandbookApplications, Chapter 34. Baseline loads should be brokenout separately.

    5. List all possible modifications to equipment and operations that would

    save energy and reduce GHG emissions. List preliminary cost andsavings estimates.

    6. Review the list of practical modifications with the owner/operator andselect those that will be analyzed further. Prioritize the modifications inthe anticipated order of implementation.

    7. For each practical measure, estimate the potential savings in energy cost,GHG offset and its energy index. To account for interaction betweenmodifications, assume that modifications with the highest operational

    priority and/or best return on investment will be implemented first.

    8. Estimate the cost of each practical measure. Identify factors that maysignificantly affect the cost estimate.

    9. Estimate the impact of each practical measure on building operations,i t t d ti t
