As part of our non-profit work, Rocky Mountain Institute is compiling energy
audit checklists that specifically take building energy simulation into
account. The purpose is to include building simulation inputs in a level III
energy audit data gathering process. If anyone can share checklists they
have already made, we will be making them freely available and you would be
contributing to something that will eventually benefit yourselves and
others.
The catagories we need checklists for are as follows:
*General Building Info*
- building envelope
- operation schedules
- Lighting
- Plug Loads
- utility data
- domestic hot water system info
- Zoning setpoints and schedules (temp and RH)
*HVAC and Controls Options*
- Hot Water Boilers
- Steam Boilers
- Pumps (generalized for any type)
- Chillers
- Packaged AC (gas-packs, HP?s, DX, etc)
- Built up AHUs (CHW & HHW coils)
- Cooling Towers
- Baseboards
- Ductwork systems
- Piping Systems
- VAV and Fan Powered Terminals
- Fan Coil Units
*Specialty Loads*
- swimming pools
- restaurant/kitchen equipment
- labs equipment/fume hoods
- refrigeration equipment
- motors
- air compressors
