CoR Advisors  | Making Dollars & Sense of Smart Buildings |
Event Over
What is the true value proposition of smart buildings – from more than just an economic perspective? While long-term ROI models are still in the early phases of implementation, most experts agree that smart buildings are more energy efficient, less expensive to operate, and more attractive to tenants – adding up to a very compelling positive value proposition. This track will discuss why owners need to operate smarter buildings, what steps can be taken for immediate financial and social benefit, and what’s next for smart buildings – from both a micro and macro perspective.

The real estate industry is caught in a perfect storm of social, economic, and regulatory pressures to change the way we operate buildings to achieve maximum energy efficiency and minimum impact on the environment. In a time when everyone is “going green”, owners need to respond quickly to corporate and competitive motivations, as well as government mandates. We’ll discuss the benefits of incorporating sustainable solutions into building operations as well as the risks of not taking action.

The biggest challenge facing real estate owners is how to upgrade existing buildings for energy improvements with little or no capital. We’ll explore low cost, no cost strategies that provide immediate financial rewards, as well as discuss creative ways of funding longer term initiatives that improve overall asset value. Real estate owners will share their unique successes in reducing energy consumption that resulted in a less than one year payback.

With the introduction of the smart grid for supply-side energy management, the building industry needs to make sure the demand-side of the equation has the ability to integrate efficiently with supply. Smart buildings play a major role in the success of both micro- and macro-level energy management solutions, from procurement to consumption. Smart building solutions reduce the demand for energy as well as provide efficient measures for usage, such as automated demand response and load shedding. We’ll address the critical relationship between smart buildings and smart grids for the future of energy management.
