At PM Springfest, Caroline Karvonen, our Senior Director Sustainability and Stakeholder Relations moderated a panel exploring the transition story of turning a 30 year old Class A office building into a Zero Carbon building with Kit Milnes from KingSett Capital and Daniel Stranges from Continual Energy Inc.
They reviewed the overhaul of the building systems, including HVAC redesign, using every opportunity for heat retention/recirculation from the building. The end result? Natural gas was no longer needed. They also looked at significant achievements - energy performance improved with a 53% reduction in consumption and a 41% reduction in costs, versus 2019 baselines, and the elimination of over 500 tonnes of carbon emissions per year.
If you are looking to get started – ensure you have accurate and reliable energy data and review what building systems/assets are at or near end of life.
