ENERGY STAR
Commercial Buildings Program
•  Offers a strategic approach to energy management
•  Enables building owners, managers, and tenants to save
money & protect the environment
•  Provides organizations with measurable information on
energy savings and greenhouse gas emissions
reductions from commercial buildings
•  Builds on strong ENERGY STAR brand recognition
•  ENERGY STAR on a building = Superior Energy
Performance
•  Benchmarking is the first step
6

Value of Benchmarking
Consistent benchmarking in
buildings results in energy
savings and improved
performance

•  Management Tool – Helps business and organizations by offering a
platform to:
–  Assess whole building energy and water consumption
–  Track changes in energy, water, greenhouse gas emissions, and cost over time
–  Track green power purchase
–  Share/report data with others
–  Create custom reports
–  Apply for ENERGY STAR certification
•  Metrics Calculator – Provides key performance metrics to integrate
into a strategic management plan
–  Energy consumption (source, site, weather normalized)
–  Water consumption (indoor, outdoor)
–  Greenhouse gas emissions (indirect, direct, total, avoided)
–  ENERGY STAR 1-to-100 score (available for many building types)
 Accessible in a free, online secure platform:
www.energystar.gov/benchmark

Understand
Comparative Performance
9
•  ALL buildings can be benchmarked
•  Benchmarking through Portfolio Manager enables
you to:
–  Compare one building against a national sample of
similar buildings
–  Compare all of your buildings of a similar type to each
other
–  Set priorities and targets for the use of limited staff time
and/or investment capital
–  Track performance over time and gain recognition

To Get Started Benchmarking in
Portfolio Manager
•  Helpful data to have on hand
–  Property Information
•  Function
•  Name, street address, ZIP/postal code
–  Property type data
•  Gross floor area
•  Use details (ex. weekly operating hours, number of
computers, number of workers on the main shift, etc)
–  Energy consumption data
•  Property-specific invoice information from all purchased and
on-site generated energy for all fuel types
10

How To
– Navigate the new Portfolio Manager
– Add a property and enter details about it
– Enter energy and water consumption data
– Share properties
– Generate performance reports to assess
progress
– Respond to data requests

  8 heat pumps
  Fixed outside air flow
  Above the ceiling return plenum

Significant energy reduction in B469
B469 met the ENERGY STAR® goal in < 2
years and reduced its annual energy use 58%

How B469 earned ENERGY STAR® certification
  Lighting changes
•  More efficient lighting
•  Fewer light fixtures
  Monitor thermostats
•  Maintain temperature set points at 72F
•  Ensure that all thermostats are in the same
mode
  Improved insulation
•  Identified poorly insulated areas using infrared
thermography

How B469 earned ENERGY STAR® certification
  Occupant involvement
•  Turn off lights at the end of the work day
•  Put computers in sleep mode at the end of the
work day
•  Turn off TV and lights in canteen when not
occupied
•  Call the energy team when temperatures are a
problem
  Occupant comfort
•  Improved thermostat locations
•  Diffusers
  Balanced air flows
  Relocated as needed
  Changed diffuser type as needed
•  Installed personal dampers as needed
  Personal heaters used less

Eastman Chemical Company Overview
ENERGY STAR® Battle of the Buildings

GOAL
Reduce building
energy use intensity,
EUI, 20% in one year.

In the 2012 Battle of the Buildings
 We entered 3 office buildings
 2 buildings exceeded the EUI reduction goal
 2 buildings finished in the top 10 of 1,050 office building
competitors
In the 2013 Battle of the Buildings
 We’ve entered the same 3 office buildings…
 B469 has already exceeded the goal!

All 3 are on target to exceed the goal

Continued energy use intensity reduction in
the 2013 competition
 Building automation system
•  Use occupancy schedule to control HVAC and lights
•  CO2 controlled outside air
•  Control and troubleshoot via network server
  Window film
•  Minimizes solar heat gain in the summer
•  Minimizes radiant heat loss in the winter
 Continued focus on occupant comfort
 Continued occupant involvement
 Continued communication with occupants

Future plans to use
ENERGY STAR® portfolio manager
 Eastman headquarters
 Eastman employee center
 Warehouse
 Data center
 Wastewater treatment plant

Summary
 Portfolio Manager is a valuable tool
•  Provides quantitative feedback to individuals
•  Allows assessment of the value of changes implemented
•  Required for ENERGY STAR Certification and participation in
Battle of the Buildings
 Improving building efficiency is much like any energy
efficiency program
•  Energy management requires a focused effort to succeed
•  Gains can be achieved with education and awareness but
diligence will be required to maintain
•  Financial investments can result in step changes and many have
attractive paybacks
