Managing Energy Performance Expectations In any rapidly growing industry, performance expectations are reported at a rate that outpaces publication of actual results, and are often inflated. In the case of green buildings and actual operating performance, potential savings are being oversold in some instances. Modeling can be one major issue in understanding why energy expectations are not being met. Potential inaccuracies of energy modeling are well known, nonetheless common errors persist. Most BUILDING TEAM Owner The Durst Organization Architect Fox & Fowle Architects Mechanical Designer Cosentini Associates Other Key Players Tishman Construction energy modeling tools are very good at modeling standard HVAC systems, but it can be more of a challenge for less experienced modelers to predict the energy use of advanced green building components such as natural ventilation, atria, displacement ventilation, chilled beams, and double façades, among others. Another element that can result in low building performance is a disconnect between design and operation—at the time of design and modeling predicted energy performance, optimal control strategies and schedules often 34 HIGH PERFORMING BUILDINGS Winter 2008
