Overview

The Energy Efficiency for Building Operators & Maintenance Staff (EEBOM) workshop is an interactive course designed to engage, motivate and empower building operators. Our instructors facilitate participant understanding of how energy behaves, how energy is used in their facility, and how it can be controlled through operational actions across a variety of building systems.

 

A unique aspect of this training course is the Virtual Energy Hunt - which brings participants into a building with the use of visuals and real-time BAS data. This allows participants to take part in a detailed examination of a building and its systems. Based on the results of the energy hunt, participants review what systems can offer the most energy savings and how to prioritize actions.

 

Objectives

  • Learn how building operations impact energy consumption and how to identify energy waste
  • Determine how you can improve energy efficiency through building maintenance and operations
  • Gain expertise on how to conduct simple energy savings calculations and explain savings to others
  • Learn how building control strategies can be used to reduce energy consumption and costs
  • Gain better understanding of how to optimize heating, ventilation & air conditioning
  • Understand how to reduce energy through equipment selection/replacement

 

Who should attend?

This short thematic course is ideal for the following clientele:

 

  • Building operators
  • Facility operations staff
  • Building/asset managers
  • Energy managers
  • Service providers to the commercial building industry
  • Commercial project managers
