ZERO CARBON INNOVATION FORUM

"ZERO CARBON INNOVATION FORUM: THE ALL-ELECTRIC BUILDING" IS A SERIES OF IN-DEPTH SESSIONS TO EXPLORE KEY STRATEGIES FOR ZERO CARBON BUILDING.

Heating buildings is typically the largest greenhouse gas emission load for buildings in Canada. Emerging technologies for heating buildings with electricity (particularly heat-pumps) are common features in Zero Carbon Building projects seeking to take advantage of the lower emissions factor associated with electricity in Ontario relative to more common natural gas heating.

This session’s panel dicussion topics included:

• The status of electric heating technology today and on the horizon
• A case study of the heating system design for Zero Carbon Building -certified Evolv1 in Waterloo
• Implications of electric heating on the design process, including energy simulation
• Evaluation of the business case for electrically heated buildings
• Implementation challenges through construction and operation of electrically heated buildings

AGENDA

1:30 - 1:35pm: Introduction by CaGBC-GTC
1.35 - 1:50pm: Presentation on zero carbon heating technologies by Mitsubishi Electric 
1:50 - 2:05pm: Presentation on evolv1 - Canada's first Zero Carbon Building Standard-certified project - by Stantec

THE ZERO CARBON BUILDING STANDARD WORKSHOP

Ready to take on the challenge of Zero Carbon?
This half-day workshop introduced participants to zero carbon buildings, with particular emphasis on the CaGBC's Zero Carbon Building (ZCB) Standard. Participants were equipped with important foundational knowledge, as well as an understanding of how the ZCB Standard could potentially be used for their current or future projects. The workshop covered the requirements of the Zero Carbon Building Standard for both new and existing buildings. This includes:
 

• The zero carbon balance;
• The zero carbon transition plan;
• Thermal Energy Demand Intensity (TEDI);
• Energy Use Intensity (EUI)
• Peak demand;
• Renewable Energy; and
• Embodied carbon

This workshop provided the opportunity to learn from a subject matter expert in a facilitated environment. Exercises and group discussion helped to reinforce the material. Note: This workshop was not intended to provide professional level knowledge on how to develop strategies or prepare supporting documentation for program compliance. 

This workshop provided 4 GBCI-approved Continuing Education (CE) hours.

Date: May 17th, 2018
Time: 7:30 - 9:45am
Location: Confederation 5/6 , Fairmont Royal York Hotel, 100 Front Street West (Map) 

As building projects across Canada target significantly higher performance levels - such as Net-Zero Energy, high energy efficiency, and Zero Carbon Building standards - they are forced to consider new design strategies and technologies that they may not be familiar with. At the same time, financing, investment returns and 3rd party certifications may be tied directly to the successful achievement of these ambitious goals. This is especially true for P3's, performance contracts, pay-for-performance incentives or climate innovation grants. How can building owners and developers interested in leading-edge buildings proceed with confidence?

This breakfast event presented some of the most recent Canadian experiences in advanced green building projects to help stakeholders and investors better understand best practices in constructing high performance buildings, with a focus on the kinds of evaluations, certifications, quality control processes, and contracting that are being used to ensure that projects achieve their most ambitious goals.

7:30 - 8:00am - Hot breakfast 
8:00 - 9.15am - Speaker presentations and discussions

WSP -  Banking on performance: How to meet performance targets through a building’s life cycle

Presenter: Luka Matutinovic, Director of National Performance Analysis, Sustainability & Energy, WSP

This presentation will demonstrate how projects can factor in – and overcome – associated risks and barriers at each stage of building development, from design to construction through to occupancy. We will also discuss strategies for delivering proven performance, through energy modeling, Measurement & Verification (M&V) and commissioning. Case studies and lessons learned will be shared with a large sample of projects that have successfully met their predicted performance targets, this presentation will focus on the strategies and risks to be aware of throughout a project's life-cycle - from design/modeling to construction/procurement to post-occupancy, to measurement/verification and commissioning. 
 

Brookfield Global Integrated Solutions (BGIS) - Meeting the goals of the Vancouver Declaration on Clean Growth & Climate Change in federal facilities operated by BGIS

Presenter: Daniel Gosselin, National Director of Energy, BGIS

BGIS is working closely with Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) to implement aggressive measures to reduce the environmental impact of facilities owned by the federal government across the country. In addition to discussing the approach and challenges related to the mandate, the presentation will focus on the importance of relationships, communication and collaboration between all stakeholders to achieve aggressive greenhouse gas emission reductions while maintaining long-term fiscal responsibility.
