47. Sustainability

48. We pride ourselves on being on the cutting edge of sustainability:
• Cotati Police Facility – One of the first LEED® certified Public Safety project in
the United States.
• Uptown Monterey Retail – First LEED® certified retail center in the State of
California.
• Our company policy is all Mechanical and Electrical design team members
must become LEED® AP (LEED® AP+).
• We have designed 20+ projects that have or are in the process of achieving
LEED® and/or CHPS certification.
Sustainability

49. Photovoltaic System
• Renewable energy generation system.
• We have extensive experience in PV systems.
• We work as a consultant to SunPower on a
variety of projects.
• We are currently under contract with SunEdison
to place PV systems on existing Walgreens
buildings throughout the country.
• We design systems on rooftops, parking
structures, ground arrays.
• PV systems are becoming more cost effective
making them more attractive to owner occupied
buildings; such as K-12, Higher Ed., corporate
offices, large retailers, etc.
Sustainability

50. Thermal Energy Storage
Full Storage Partial Storage Demand Limiting
Sustainability

51. Evaporative Condensing
Air Conditioning
• Cost effective energy
efficiency. Typically, add
$1,000 per ton.
• Can be installed in a
standard packaged
rooftop unit system.
• Up to 13.5 EER. (Title 24
min. is 10.8 EER for this
type of system.)
• Available for both
constant volume and
variable volume
mechanical systems.
Sustainability

52. Daylight Harvesting
• Adjusting the output of electric
lighting in a daylight area adjacent
to a window or skylight via a
daylight photo sensor that detects
light levels in the space that can
turn lighting ON/OFF or dimming
control.
• The light level is the user-defined
day-light level that must be reached
before the lights are turned on/off or
dimming is turned up or down.
Sustainability

53. Occupancy Based Lighting Control
• Switching lighting on and off in response to the occupancy of a particular space
via occupancy sensors that respond to the individual usage of a controlled space
are effective at eliminating energy waste. Occupancy sensor types include:
o Passive Infrared Technology (PIR)
o Ultrasonic Technology
o Dual Technology combines the best of both PIR and ultrasonic technologies
• Scheduling control manages lighting according to time schedules based on when
buildings are open/occupied and closed/unoccupied via a master lighting control
system panel that automatically turns all lighting on/off with the exception of
emergency lighting.
Sustainability

54. Classroom Lighting
Integrated Classroom Lighting System (ICLS)
• Achieve classroom lighting requirements
• Achieve maximum energy performance points
• Easily integrated daylight harvesting strategies
• In the “General Mode”, it provides recommended light levels and illuminates ceilings
and walls (using the ceiling suspended direct/indirect lighting)
• In the “A/V Mode”, it ensures presentations are clearly visible while providing
enough light for proper classroom communications
• In the “Focus Mode”, light can focus attention. A/V Mode combined with the
whiteboard light fixture results in a calming environment where attention is focused
on the whiteboard
Sustainability

55. High Efficiency Lighting
• T5 and T5HO fluorescent lamps produce the
same amount of light using 28 watts as a 32
watt T8. They have an average life of 20,000
hrs, compared to 24,000 hrs for the T8.
• LED light fixtures produce more light per watt
than incandescent bulbs. They have an
average life of 50,000 hrs, compared to 10,000
to 24,000 hrs for fluorescent lamps. Using 60%
less energy, they are available for indoor and
outdoor applications.
• Induction lighting are similar to conventional
fluorescent lamps. They have an average life of
100,000 hrs, which is 11.4 years of continuous
operation or 22.8 years of day or night use.
They are primarily used where replacement
costs are high.
Sustainability
