ENERGY STAR now provides tools and recognition for architectural designs
that incorporate energy simulation.
 
The next "Designing Top Energy Performing Buildings for Your Clients"
Internet presentation on Tuesday May 17, 1:00-1:45 PM, EDT. This
presentation describes how to use ENERGY STAR's software tool Target
Finder, and how it complements energy simulation modeling and the LEED
rating system. Target Finder takes rudimentary building and occupant
data and yields the annual energy use value required if the building is
to perform in the top 25 percent of U.S. building stock. The talk will
also present strategies that will enhance performance and illustrates
how building owners and designers can readily evaluate and achieve
energy-based design targets. Decision-makers will learn how to set
realistic goals for energy use and compare simulated results to their
target. It will show designers how to compare energy simulation results
to top performing buildings using Target Finder. The Target Finder and
integrated design assistance has been developed for office buildings and
other medium to large scale buildings such as schools, hospitals and
hotels and University Residence Halls.

Attendees can receive 1 AIA CES Learning Unit in the Health, Safety,
Welfare category
