While many buildings are said to be “green,” “low energy,” or “high performance,” only some of those buildings can provide operating data which support their claims. HPB provides performance data of exemplary buildings so that building professionals can learn the best practices for attaining sustainable goals. The editorial advisory board for ASHRAE’s HPB Magazine will share the lessons they have learned from reporting on the experiences of the designers, contractors, suppliers and owners of buildings that have been featured in the magazine. Performance data collected from featured buildings has been assembled in a data base allowing for the identi cation of planning and operating strategies that have proven successful — along with assumptions that have fallen by the wayside. Forum moderator is Kent Peterson. 3:15 p.m. – 4:45 p.m. Plug Load Reduction strategies 1.
