Undergrad Teaching Labs
Planned Sustainability Features:• Install occupancy sensors• Set-back controls on ventilation during unoccupancy• Installation of sub-meters to verify/monitor
• Occupancy in Teaching Labs is 181 full day equivalents
• Electrical cost for ventilation is ~100K$ /year• Potential Cost saving with a 50% reduction
is ~50k$/year• Demand Based Ventilation could introduce
even greater savings
