Description:
An energy model is neither a Revit button nor a “one-and-done” design activity. Rather, energy models allow designers to go beyond aesthetics and see options through the lens of energy performance. The speaker identifies four phases where models improve energy performance and provide compelling evidence that energy models quantify performance of ideas that designers are interested in exploring. The speaker presents a scalable energy model workflow, and even share insights where models pay for themselves, including changes to the 179D energy efficiency tax deduction enabled by the Inflation Reduction Act. Leveraging valuable energy models throughout design helps architects achieve both aesthetic design goals AND ambitious energy performance targets.
Learning Outcomes:
1. Appraise their firm’s approach and process to include an energy model as part of the design process.
2. Assess proven data that demonstrates that an early-phase energy model improves outcomes throughout the design process, leading to enhanced energy performance.
3. Apply concepts and analytical insights so their firm leverages energy models throughout design to improve both aesthetics and energy performance.
4. Use the Early Phase Energy Model Checklist as part of their early-phase project discussions, charrettes, and design studies.
5. Produce designs that are eligible for the generous 179D energy efficiency tax deduction.
Bio:
Amanda Bogner
Amanda, president of ENERGY STUDIO, is a registered mechanical engineer and is a certified ASHRAE building energy modeling professional (BEMP) with 20-years of project experience. She has dedicated her career to providing meaningful energy modeling analysis to owners and design teams.
Amanda received her undergraduate degree in Architectural Engineering from the University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas. She began her career at Leo A Daly Company in Omaha, Nebraska as a mechanical designer. While at Leo A Daly, she designed HVAC systems for a variety of projects and led the LEED documentation effort for Nebraska’s first LEED certified project – National Park Service Regional Headquarters. In 2006, Amanda joined BVM Engineering (now IES) in Atlanta, Georgia where she led the energy modeling department. In this role, her project portfolio included several skyline-changing projects like 300 North LaSalle in Chicago, IL, and Atlantic Station in Atlanta, GA, and Eighth Avenue Place, Calgary, Alberta.In 2010, Amanda founded Energy Studio to provide energy modeling and management services to architects, engineers, developers, and building owners. The firm is a Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) certified women’s business enterprise (WBE) and women-owned small business (WOSB). Since inception, ENERGY STUDIO has provided energy analysis services for over 400 projects in 38 states, including over 100 LEED projects. Their energy analysis services have affected over 60 million gross square feet of built space, which results in healthier, more energy-efficient, and cost-effective spaces for facility managers and occupants.Amanda’s ENERGY STUDIO team serves clients across the country, and she is a registered professional engineer in California, District of Columbia, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.
