Trends in Green Kitchens and Green Buildings
•
1 gefällt mir•500 views
The green building industry is one of the hottest right now. Construction has always been a major contributor to the economy, and Canada is adding enough new buildings every year that over 1,000 kilotons of new emissions are added to the building sector's footprint - compounded every year. The same market in the US adds almost 10 times more. This is obviously a problem. The Green Building sector is making a significant impact at reversing this trend. Mindscape's partners are leading the way: our latest projects are pursuing net-zero, cost effectively. LEED Platinum is not only affordable, but it's making money for the building owners. Green material costs are continually becoming more competitive as suppliers adapt to the requirements of green building programs. There are brighter days ahead. Enjoy the read! This slide deck was prepared for an internal training event at Distinctive Appliances, in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.

- 22. (from the Green Energy Act…) 3.(1) A person making an offer to purchase an interest in real property has the right to receive from the person offering to sell the property such information, reports or ratings as are prescribed, (a) relating to energy consumption and efficiency with respect to a prescribed residence on the property or a class of prescribed residences on the property; and (b) in such circumstances and at such times as are prescribed and in such manner as is prescribed. 2009, c. 12, Sched. A, s. 3 (1). “Prescribed” implies a coming regulation yet to be released, likely to rely heavily on EnerGuide/NRCan.
- 23. As of Today… Net Zero! • NZE homes at $25k premium – Leased energy equipment? Cheaper from start! • Cost effective PV & LEDs (finally) • NZE towers >8 storeys w/ BIPV • Smart / NZE communities emerging • Certified buildings >50% of new in US • Homes programs >20% of new in CA • “Green” words have been abused – back to measurables & 3rd party programs © Mindscape Innovations Group Inc.

- Notes: This presentation is part of a panel of four: Here are the notes I took on the content of the presentation: Kerry will introduce me, but I should be prepared to provide more detail comment on Mindscape, some of our key projects, London the presentation will be a bit of a &quot;green buildings 101&quot;; review the programs / standards; trends in green building; trends in related technology markets; comments on NZE, and on &quot;beyond NZE&quot;; target 45 mins. slides, incl 5-10 mins. Q&A (target 20 slides); audience ~70% sales oriented, ~30% technical; bent towards more commercially oriented.
- 1 min Q: What types of images come to mind when you hear the term “green building”? It wasn’t so long ago that this term was fringe…
- Or could green in fact be something much closer to home… like better appliances?
- Image from http://www.cnrenovation.com/ Agenda: Kerry will introduce me, but I should be prepared to provide more detail comment on Mindscape, some of our key projects, London the presentation will be a bit of a &quot;green buildings 101&quot;; review the programs / standards; trends in green building; trends in related technology markets; comments on NZE, and on &quot;beyond NZE&quot;;
- One of the biggest problems in the world… waste. Buy responsibly. Buy quality, that will last, and that will not waste (materials, energy, water, … anything).
- ~67% of residential energy use is for space heating and cooling, 15% for heating water, and 18% for lighting & appliances. In literature, a ‘crisis’ is a decision point – an opportunity for the plot to turn good or bad, and there are always characters that want it to each way. Interesting to note: the total energy supply chain in Canada (and North America) is &lt; 10% efficient.Less than 40% of the energy generated by nuclear/coal/natural gas plants is used to create light / turn motors / run computers.The rest is wasted and lost. Hydro is about 90% efficient, so it is much better overall than the others.
- Sustainability = “Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs…” TV show: Design e2 hosted by Brad Pitt (released June ’06 on PBS) – “A television series that explores the economics of being environmentally conscious.” Oprah just recently issued a request “Are you worried about global warming? Have you and your family made changes around your household to save energy and cut carbon emissions? Do you recycle and set your thermostat to energy saving cycles? Do you use public transportation to help reduce your fuel consumption? Have you found a way to make a difference in your home or in your yard that you could share with our viewers? What are your specific ideas to reduce global warming in your home? Tell us what they are. The Oprah Winfrey Show is looking for families who are making a difference in reducing global warming that can share their stories and creative ideas. Please only respond if you are willing to be on television.”
- Any effective ‘green’ rating system should be able to give due consideration to each of these topical areas of interest, and to their inter-relation. For example, there are many synergistic benefits between a tight building envelope and an efficient HVAC system. Site: landscaping, storm water management, site waste management, lighting… Building orientation and massing Water Envelope HVAC: Ventilation, and heating and cooling strategies Lighting and power Material selection And of course, the everpresent need for Quality Assurance, and Communication between designers Lastly, any system that can assess and compare the merits of green efforts under each of these areas should also afford some opportunity for “Value Engineering”, or for comparing the relative costs and benefits of different options.
- Key points: There are lots of great programs to help build better homes! All programs are good. The point is that they should be used (ie: don’t squabble about which is best or exclude any: encourage them all) Practically speaking, we spend most of our time on ENERGY STAR and LEED, but BUILT GREEN and NZ are up and coming.
- Key points: Again, all programs are good. Just use them.
- Key point: For no more than a couple % on the price (which amounts to pennies/day, or few dollars/month), you get a LOT MORE VALUE, and it pays for itself twice (in resale, and in utility savings)! $$ aside, there are significant soft benefits, like health and comfort. The question this slide answers: CAN I AFFORD IT? Like anything else, the more you invest, the more you get back. LEED® Silver is very affordable (~5% premium and ~4-5 yr. payback), and even Gold isn’t too expensive (~10% for &lt;10yr. payback) Builders we have contact with are telling us that their costs and sale value increases are approximately: E-star: $4k - $5k avg. increase, (~1.6% on a 250k home). E-star increased sale value: same! LEED®-H: “certified” (via US) ~10 - 12% more. LEED “gold” home will be ~25 - 30% (via US). We’ll fix that when we bring it to Canada! LEED®-H increased sale value: __ Capital cost impact affected by: LEED target level Spec flexibility (eg: Green Roof’s are expensive) Building type (ie: how energy efficient was the base design?) Project size (economies of scale): big projects tend to be less expensive on a per unit basis Green market maturity (in mature markets there is more experience and better availability, thus lower costs) Climate zone (eg: extreme clients have high cost projects, so the incremental costs tend to be less pronounced) Team experience Regardless, incremental costs tend to be very reasonable.

- Toronto’s HELP (Home Energy Loan Program) Colorado’s NZE loans
- By theme (ie: not in the order shown): Energy: HRV ASHP/GSHP Solar Advanced water heaters (eg: condensing) DWHR Water: Greywater Cisterns Low-flow everything
- Commercial products you’ll see more of: VRF BIPV – yes, it’s now cost effective! CHP / cogen: more talented ppl doing more talented thingshttp://pulse.blogs.bendbulletin.com/2013/02/11/chuck-colclough-heart-of-the-hospital/ Metering & control – BAS“There’s an app for that” Invisible stuff (air tightness) More building labelling
- We’re waiting for a Regulation that offers details about what is “prescribed”: likely to happen shortly after NRCan releases the next generation (updated ) version of EnerGuide (tent. Spring 2014)
- Eg’s: London 70 acres image: TRCA Archetype home
- London Others? Water? Carbon?
- LEED checklist: - Built Green SFNC checklist: Items 1-35 through 1-39 (6 pts) for appliances; 2-25 through 2-30 (14 pts, some mutually exclusive) for flooring options; 3-12 through 3-21 (16 pts, some mutually exclusive) for finishings / UF / VOCs 4-5 (2 pts) for HRV More coming in 2015 for recycling centre in kitchen

- If there’s any one closing thought I’d like to leave you with it’s this. Green building is not just about economics or using good projects, although it is certainly about that. Building Green is accepting the fact that we cannot continue the way we have been. Nature won’t tolerate it.
