The presentations, news, research summaries, reports, and technology overviews are collected here by focus area and represent the body of work developed by the CBEI partners during the 5-year project period. For additional information on market challenges, approach, and impacts, see each focus area overview.
The EEB Hub aims to achieve dramatic increases in energy efficiency in buildings by developing and demonstrating market proven integrated whole building solutions to achieve energy savings.
A key objective of the EEB Hub is to provide successful demonstrations of integrated building design methods that lead to deep, reliable cuts in energy use while improving overall asset value overall in real estate markets.
This research roadmap is focused on conducting research using existing and state-of-the-art building components and systems in an integrated fashion.
This document demonstrates the modeling methodology for in-duct air and cooling coil ultraviolet germicidal irradiation components and systems for application to Building 661.
This report evaluates literature on the current theories of “integrated design” and conducted a series of interviews with architects, engineers and others involved in commercial retrofits.
This report investigates an integrated approach to building controls that strive to achieve and maintain energy efficiency and high performance building environments.
This report is the first generation profile of the available and cost-effective technologies and integrated systems that provide measurable energy savings for existing commercial buildings.
This report explains the design and performance of demonstration of BIPV Systems for Bldg. 661. The results shows that very few surfaces on Building 661 that have an unrestricted, clear view of the sky for an adequate amount of incident solar irradiation for use in energy conversion systems.
The purpose of this workshop was to bring together representatives from all of the tasks and from industry to develop a common understanding of Integration for GPIC, particularly as it relates to the lifecycle of a facility. The goal of this workshop was to develop the essential activities and interrelationship of tasks for the GPIC Energy Efficient Building Hub as they relate to the lifecycle of a building from planning through to operations.
