• Revive our cities• Lower our cost of living• Protect our environment• Preserve our farms and forests• Provide more secure, neighborly communities• Provide equal opportunities for all our children

1%• Pennsylvania emits approximately 1% of the

World’s Greenhouse Gases• PA is the 3rd largest US emitter of CO2

• TX: 670 MMT• CA: 389 MMT• PA: 271 MMT

• PA is 21st in Per Capita GHG Emissions• US Average: 20 MTCO2e• PA: 22 MTCO2e• WY: 125 MTCO2e

Pennsylvania GHG Emissions (2000)

Electricity Production (38.4%)

RCI (31.3%)

Fossil Fuel Industry (3.3%)

Transportation (23%)

Waste Management (1.8%) Agriculture (2.2%)

Primary Sources of GHG Emissions in PA1. Electricity Production (38%)

• Buildings (RCI) are the primary consumer ofelectricity (~90 %)

2. Residential / Commercial / Industrial (31%)• Construction + On-site fuel use (coal, natural gas, oil

and wood)

Total Building Emissions (RCI):~65%

3. Transportation (23%)• Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) is the fastest growing

source of CO2 emissions in PA

(Green) Building Considerations

• 10% of building costs inconstruction, 90% in O&M

• Consider long term costsin design (LCC / LCA)

• Additional “green” costs, ifany, may be offset inenergy / material savingsand increased productivity

• Best green building = theone not built

Green For Le$$ Strategies• “Going Green” Early Costs Less• Optimize Building & Land Recycling• Action-Oriented Benchmarking• Avoid Over-design and Over-sizing• Use Fully Integrated Design Process• Optimization of all Systems and Materials• Use Computer Modeling to Validate Optimization• No Line by Line “Value Engineering”• Apply “Cost Trade Off” Principles• Careful (EXPERIENCED) A/E, Contractor & CM Selection• Engage Specialty Consultants• EPP (Environmentally Preferred Purchasing)• Energy + Environmental Performance Contracting• ENERGYSTAR Rating + LEED EBOM Certification

Approaches for Conservation,Efficiency and Renewables

• High Performance Green BuildingSpecifications (Design & Lease)

• Energy Services COntracting (GESA)• Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard• HPGSPG + PDE Additional Reimbursement• Act 1: Energy Independence Strategy• ARRA (Recovery Act)• Act 129: EDC EC, EE & DSM Programs• Pending Legislation & Programs
