Year-end Progress Report, 2009/2010 Edward MOROFSKY Real Property Branch HQ, Professional & Technical Services PERD TES Year End Meeting Ottawa, May 2010
Output #1 • Review Design guidebook (Dec 2009) and identify technologies that are applicable to Canada.
Output #2 • See ANNEX 24 Status Report NOV 2009 for a complete description of the work. • Work started JAN 2009. Professor Handan Tezel of the University of Ottawa is among the participating Experts. • The collaboration is well organized and should provide good knowledge for further application of TES in low energy buildings.
Output #3 • Identification of technologies and preliminary evaluation for sustainable buildings based on work of Annex 23 for Canadian conditions. • See High Performing Buildings, Spring 2009 and the Sustainable Architecture and Building Magazine article entitled "Quebec LEED project hails government direction in sustainability" and this extract from ASHRAE • Normand-Maurice Building receives first place in the new institutional buildings category. • In 2002, PWGSC ordered construction of a federal multi-occupant building offering offices, classrooms, warehouses, and an indoor firing range for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Canadian Navy and two federal departments. The intent was to create a green building prototype that would be at least 40 % more efficient than the MNECB.
Output #3 continued • The building features several innovative measures, including underfloor displacement ventilation for improved ventilation effectiveness, a cascade ventilation principle supplying outside air to occupied spaces before transferring to secondary spaces, radiant slabs for improved • thermal comfort and energy efficiency, a geothermal heat exchanger to reduce energy consumption, and an innovative solid thermal energy storage system that reduced first costs of the geothermal heat exchanger. • The results show 40 percent more outside air supplied to occupied spaces as compared to ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2004; 51 percent regulated energy cost reduction compared to the 1997 national building code; 600 metric tons in avoided CO2 emissions each year, and 31 percent reduction in potable water use.
Presentation • “Achieving NZEB in Canada”, Workshop on the Energy Efficiency Technologies for Buildings – New and Retrofits. McMaster University (in collaboration with IEA Annex 46), Hamilton, October 22-23. 2009. • http://cceds.mcmaster.ca/index.php/cceds/index/conference/energy2009_program • Workshop at Concordia University 27-28 Oct 2009 on TES in Low energy buildings.
