1 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Presented by Cristian Monsalves (Moderator) Program Manager, Energy Efficiency Services, NSTAR Panelists Alison Farmer, Project Manager, Andelman and Lelek Engineering John Kelliher, Senior Plant Engineer, BiogenIdec. Thomas Smith, President, Exposure Control Technologies
2 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Our panel topics: Active utility team engagement/nstar Experience from Cambridge/ Biogen Idec Green Labs symposium-uc Irvine/A&L Goals and risks in a research lab/ect
3 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Research labs characteristics: Laboratories are energy and resources intensive Costly to design, build, operate and maintain On a SQFT basis labs can 6 fold energy usage of an office space Contain specialized equipment/unique processes Regulated, EH&S, hazardous materials Extensive operations. 24/7 process. Vivaria Innovation district Boston/Cambridge
4 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Biogen Idec Inc Cambridge Campus 1.24M SF 500,000 SF Of Laboratory Space 3,000 Employees Campus Energy Profile MW Electrical 0.55 BCF Gas Consumption On-Site CHP
5 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Biogen Idec Sustainability Efforts Formalized in Corporate Sustainability Council led by CEO. Cross-functional/departmental effort. Original 2015 Environmental Goal Met In Environmental Footprint in 2015 to be 15% below 2006 levels. New 2020 sustainability goal is extremely aggressive Laboratory energy usage is one of the major targets of the overall program and a key component to meeting the goal!
6 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Biogen Idec and NSTAR have been partners in efficiency upgrade programs since The alliance provides Biogen Idec access to specialized and pre-qualified specialists and firms. Major laboratory efficiency projects to date: Air handling unit retrofits with fan wall construction New lab construction initiatives with high performance hoods, variable airflow systems, VFD installations, LED lighting, modular vacuum systems, variable speed air compressors.
7 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Bldg 8 HVAC Restoration And Optimization Project. Two year initiative to restore and optimize HVAC systems of a 220,000SF Development Building. Building is the largest power consumer and most energy dense. Built in 2000 and over-designed with ACH a little variability. Peak load at 3.4MW and all built in redundancy lost due to load! Project goals: reduce air flow, modernize hoods, install high density cooling for high heat load equipment rooms, chiller VFD conversions. REDUCE COSTS! REGAIN REDUNDANCY!
8 The Green Labs Symposium 27 March 2014 at Harvard Diverse attendees Healthcare, higher ed, biotech Owners, facilities, engineering, EH&S Shared successes and challenges Local and national case studies Common themes Hallmarks of successful projects: Leadership support Strategic goals Dedicated team Systematic approach (incl. safety) Stakeholder engagement Strong utility involvement Tried and tested technologies Information layer
9 UC Irvine: a Template for Efficient Labs Deep lab energy efficiency program in response to UC climate targets 13 buildings; average 61% energy savings (excluding plug loads) Systematic, programmatic, fully customized approach Repeatable, predictable, low-risk investment Funded by bond issue The 7 steps to a Smart Lab: 1. Prerequisites (DDC, manifold exhaust, hydronic DP control, fix known issues, submetering) 2. Real-time CDCV + hazard assessments (often to 4/2 ACH) 3. Lighting upgrades 4. Elimination of exhaust bypass air 5. Airside SP reductions 6. Hood standby airflow reductions 7. Final and continuous Cxwith information layer
10 Information is Power The information layer Intelligent use of building data to predict, verify, optimize, and sustain efficiency and safety improvements Submetering Pre-digested BMS info: dashboards, portals, energy alerts Make informed decisions (no blanket policies) Occupant engagement (Harvard labs)
11 Deep Lab Efficiency in Boston Already here E.g. local case studies at symposium Millipore UMass Medical NEU MGH Utilities committed to deep energy retrofit projects in labs Adapt the 7-step program? Programmatic, systematic, informed approach
12 Research Labs -Goals & Risks Attract & Retain Top Research Talent Promote High Quality Research & Development Provide Safe & Productive Environments Reduce energy use and operating costs Ensure compliance & minimize risk of liability Maximize environmental sustainability (GHG emissions)
13 Lab Safety and Energy Optimization Goal: High Performance Laboratories Genetics Cancer Research Pharmaceutical Biomedical Molecular Biology Environmental Health Infectious Diseases Nanotechnology Chemistry Safe Productive Energy Efficient Sustainable
14 DUCTS Laboratory Hoods & Ventilation Systems FILTER STACK FAN ROOF AIR SUPPLY Building Utilities $5 to $20 per sq. ft. Lab HVAC 60% of Building Energy As much as 50% of Energy is wasted by ineffective & inefficient Lab HVAC Approximately 15% -30% of traditional fume hoods may not meet current THINK SAFETY performance standards 2012 AIHA/ANSI Z9.5 American National Standard for Laboratory Ventilation requires a Lab Ventilation Management Program (LVMP) LAB OFFICE
15 Roadmap to Lab Safety & Energy Optimization
16 Demand Based Ventilation Optimization Demand for Ventilation Safety Hood Exhaust Flow Pressurization - Isolation Dilution (ACH) Comfort & Productivity Temperature Humidity Occupancy & Utilization Improve Safety and Reduce Energy Remove or Hibernate Unnecessary Hoods Modify Inefficient Hoods Replace & Retrofit Traditional Fume Hoods Upgrade CAV & VAV Controls Optimize Temperature & Humidity Controls Install Demand Control Ventilation Reduce / Reset System Static Pressure Optimize Exhaust Fan and AHU Operation Implement Energy Recovery Minimum Flow and Range of Modulation Required to Meet the Functional Requirements of the Lab
17 Optimization Process Proven Results Results from 16 Lab Buildings Safer Labs More Dependable Systems Compliance with Codes & Standards Significant Energy Reduction Approximately 150 Billion BTUs 44 Million kwh Annual Cost Reduction = $2.9 Million competitive payback (1-5 years)
18 Safe & Energy Efficient Labs Achieve High Performance Laboratory Buildings Assess Optimize Sustain Safe Productive Energy Efficient Dependable Sustainable Thomas C. Smith Exposure Control Technologies, Inc
19 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Q&A
20 Sustainable Smart Laboratories Q&A (starting questions/please add yours) What are the lessons learn at your facilities. Next steps? What is the most important thing when pursuing laboratory energy efficiency projects. A: Persistence How can you maximize visibility for potential energy efficiency projects? A: Cross functional team support, engage management! How to localize the UC Irvine experience with our resources? Continuous commissioning/evaluation the key to sustainable smart labs? DCV v/s DBVO business case How do you rate behavioral measures in academic labs and how different can it be to implement similar changes in the industry side?
