ABOUT THE COURSE
In this educational training course, participants will begin to explore the three main ways buildings use the energy that contributes to their energy bills. Participants will learn about these load types and get an introduction to the systems and machines that make a modern building function. This course also introduces basic thermodynamic concepts and discusses several real-world situations where energy conservation goals and building function collided. Participants will explore common building energy usages and will hear about various measurement practices and best practices for evaluating loads to enhance energy efficiency. Residential building types typically include: Multi-family housing, apartment buildings, high rise and low rise condos or co-ops.
Who Should Attend
Attendees typically include: building operators, building owners, property managers, maintenance team, residential energy auditors, residential energy facility contractors, workforce development program participants along with entry-level energy, facility and sustainability professionals wishing to expand their skills.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the main ways in which a building uses energy.
- Explain the basic systems that make a site function.
- Discuss at a high-level what energy users need when it comes to energy management at the facility level.
