Learning Objectives
1. Understand that when buildings use energy can be as important as how much energy they use.
2. Gain a working knowledge of intra-day and intra-annual patterns on the electrical grid.
3. Develop an understanding of the interrelation between building efficiency, renewable energy, and on-site energy storage.
4. Describe the role of building systems and occupant behavior in load shedding and load shifting.

Easy to understand
CynthyVery informative
AndyWell organized and well presented. I was able to follow the concepts.
Anngood presentation
FrederickNo comment
DaleAnother good presentation of complex material.
JackGood overview.
GeorgeGood utility description.
BethGood
MichaelVery informative. Thank you.
GalenSome questions seem ambiguous.
IanGood overview of grid. Simple clear concepts except for acronyms. Again not sure if a 0ne rating or a five rating is the best, so I give a three.
StevenGrid-Integrated Buildings: Untangling Ourselves From the ‘Net’ in Net Zero
$25
This session describes how to design a building that produces the energy it needs to operate. A brief discussion of the electrical grid will set essential context for this discussion. From this basis, we will review how the net zero paradigm has evolved to account for interactions between a building and the electrical grid to which it is connected, how energy storage is important for capturing advantages from renewable energy generation and building efficiency, and how getting to zero is highly dependent on when energy is used.
Credits: 1 AIA HSW + 1 GBCI (USGBC/CAGBC) + 1 AIBD Primary + 1 Net Zero (ZNCD) + 1 Sustainable Design + 1 AIBC Core LU + 1 AAA Structured LU + 1 OAA, OAQ, SAA, MAA, AAPEI, NWTAA + 1 Climate Action (OAA)
Length: 1 hour
