Scaling Energy Connections for Buildings, Cities and Vehicles
- 1. Scaling Energy Connections: Buildings, Cities and Vehicles John Phelan, P.E. Energy Services Manager Fort Collins Utilities Net Zero Cities October 22, 2013
- 2. First Principles – Climatic Design • Solar geometry • Seasons • Heat flows • Wind patterns • Skilled and knowledgeable industry • Delivering high performance buildings is rarely a technical issue
- 3. Assumptions – Energy Urban Design • Buildings • Don’t move • Last 50-100 years • See multiple rehabilitations in their lifetime • Every project is an opportunity not to be missed
- 4. Scaling Energy Connections – Why? • System level efficiency • Source to end-use • Carbon Reduction • Vibrant and healthy community
- 5. Scaling Energy Connections • Interconnection and optimization of energy systems • Infrastructure • Electricity - wires • Thermal (natural gas) - pipes • Liquid fuels (transportation) - trucks
- 6. Current State • Electricity • Nearly 75% fossil based • Thermal (natural gas) • Nearly 100% fossil based • Liquid fuels (transportation) • Nearly 100% fossil based • Utilities sell commodities • Cities are made up of “buildings” and “projects”
- 7. Future State • Interconnected and optimized energy systems • Renewable based electric system • Thermal and liquid fuels become the lingering fossil based resources • Conversion • Thermal to electric • Liquid fuels to electric
- 8. Challenges • Information based electric grid • New utility business model • Services, not commodities • Need to scale efficiency and renewables by orders of magnitude
- 9. Challenges • Urban design focus on “buildings” or “projects” • Wrong scale to be interconnected • Best we can do now is to optimize buildings as individual assets after the fact • Need to anticipate future optimization at larger scale
- 10. Current Projects • Fort ZED • Smart energy test-bed • Technical, partnerships, business models • Efficiency and renewable energy • Best practices and innovation, driving to scale • Drive Electric Northern Colorado
- 11. Back to transportation • People love cars, especially in the west • Electrification potential for benefit or trouble • Get ahead of the curve • • • • Urban design – where we live Vehicles – how we move Utility design – behind the scenes Supply resources – make it clean • Humans… - make it easy
