How Wake Forest University’s South Chiller Plant upgrade sets a new standard for campus infrastructure – boosting cooling capacity, preserving campus land, and blending cutting-edge engineering with iconic architecture.
Smart pump platform delivers data-driven savings, helps hotels meet district energy requirements, and proves the business case for building decarbonization
A Toronto-area Marriott used Armstrong Fluid Technology’s performance envelope platform to cut its energy use by 70% – and discovered even bigger potential savings for buildings not on district heating.
Cooling tower spillover during chiller rotation shows how thoughtful programming, sequence tweaks, and field fixes can tackle system instability in both winter and summer conditions
HVAC systems experience their most challenging moments during operational transitions – when systems first enable, modes shift, or equipment rotates or stages to meet demand. These brief windows often reveal instability that routine operation may hide.
How small changes in chiller sequencing can trigger outsize instability – and practical automation strategies to keep HVAC transitions smooth and alarms quiet
Dive into how chiller rotation sequences in variable flow HVAC systems can unexpectedly disrupt operations –
and how refined automation logic can help keep things running smoothly.
With LEED Gold certification, all-electric systems, and pioneering energy recovery solutions, San Francisco State University’s new science building sets a new standard for sustainability
Harris, in partnership with SFSU, delivered a state-of-the-art, energy-efficient science building. The building was designed to achieve an Energy Use Intensity (EUI) of 93 kBtu per square foot per year, already a 30% improvement over the baseline of 136 kBtu per square foot per year.
With Windham Hospital swapping to engine-driven cooling, they are expected to save 200 tons of carbon emissions annually by using natural gas directly and efficiently.
We need to be making our buildings more energy efficient so that smaller amounts of renewable electricity are needed and less capacity needs to be built, whitepaper authors argue.
