Research Promotion Night and

ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer Dru Crawley

3:30-5:00 Board Meeting
5:00-5:30 Social Time
5:30-6:00 Dinner, 50/50 and Announcements
6:00-7:00 Advanced Energy Design Guides
7:00-8:00 Future Trends in Buildings and Energy Simulation

Advanced Energy Design Guides
ASHRAE, IESNA, USGBC, AIA, and DOE have collaborated on a series of Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDGs) for at least 30% energy savings beyond Standard 90.1-1999. The guides provide prescriptive packages for each climate zone to reach the 30% energy savings. The AEDGs are accepted for points toward LEED-NC certification (instead of simulation). This presentation provides an overview of the AEDG process as well as examples of packages and case studies from each guide.


Future Trends in Buildings and Energy Simulation
The buildings industry faces many challenges and opportunities over the next few decades. The buildings touted today as ‘most energy-efficient’ or ‘green’ would not be possible without energy simulation—but no single simulation tool can model all aspects of our buildings today. Over the next ten years, changes in building technology—particularly wireless controls and solid-state lighting—will profoundly alter how our buildings are designed, built, and operated. This presentation provides an overview of trends and drivers affecting the building industry as well as the simulation tools of tomorrow.

Dr. Crawley leads the U.S. Department of Energy’s Building Technologies Program team working to achieve cost-effective net-zero energy commercial buildings by 2025. He is also responsible for managing the DOE’s building energy software tools development activities including EnergyPlus (winner of an R&D 100 Award in 2003), Energy Design Plugin for Google SketchUp, Energy-10, DOE-2, and SPARK, among others.

With more than 30 years of experience in buildings energy efficiency, renewable energy, and sustainability, he has worked in government research and standards development organizations, as well as building design and consulting companies. A registered architect, he recently completed his PhD in Mechanical Engineering on the topic of building simulation as a policy tool at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland.

He is active in ASHRAE (Chair of Technical Committee 2.8 Building Environmental Impacts and Sustainability, Chair of Standard 169 Weather Data for Building Design Standards, member of SSPC 189.1P Standard for the Design of High-Performance, Green Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, former member of the Research Administration Committee, and former chair of TC 4.2, 4.7, and 7.1). He was made an ASHRAE Fellow in 2009, received an ASHRAE Distinguished Service award in 2003 and a 1999 Symposium Best Paper Award for “Which Weather Data Should You Use for Energy Simulations of Commercial Buildings?”

He is also active in AIA, IBPSA, USGBC (member of the Research Committee and former member of the Energy & Atmosphere TAG), and serves on the editorial boards of three international Journals. He has written more than 100 papers and articles and made more than 300 presentations on energy efficiency, sustainability, and renewable energy topics throughout the world.

Professional Development Seminar


Getting from AEDGs to Zero-Energy Buildings


THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2012


Location: Holiday Inn East
4751 Lindle Road
Harrisburg, PA 17111

Join us for a presentation by ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer --


DRURY B. CRAWLEY, Ph.D.
Director, Building Performance Products Bentley Systems, Inc.

Dr. Crawley leads the team responsible for developing a new generation of building performance software for energy and sustainability at Bentley Systems, including AECOsim Energy Simulator, AECOsim Compliance Manager, Open Mechanical, Hevacomp Simulator, Hevacomp Mechanical Designer, and Bentley Tas. AECOsim Energy Simulator is a BIM-based, full featured interface for the U. S. Department of Energy's flagship EnergyPlus building simulation program. AECOsim Compliance Manager eases the documentation and submission of all the data required for LEED.

With more than 30 years of experience in building's energy efficiency, renewable energy, and sustainability, he has worked in government research and standards development organizations, as well as building software, design and consulting companies. A registered architect, he also has a PhD in Mechanical Engineering on the topic of building simulation as a policy tool from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland.

He is active in ASHRAE (Chair of Standard 169 Weather Data for Building Design Standards, member of SSPC 189.1 Standard for the Design of High-Performance, Green Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, member of SSPC 140 Standard Method of Test for the Evaluation of Building Energy Analysis Computer Programs, member of the Technical Activities Committee, former member of the Research Administration Committee, and former chair of TCs 2.8, 4.2, 4.7, and 7.1). He was made an ASHRAE Fellow in 2009, received an ASHRAE Distinguished Service award in 2003 and a 1999 Symposium Best Paper Award for "Which Weather Data Should You Use for Energy Simulations of Commercial Buildings?"

He has written more than 100 papers and articles and made more than 300 presentations on energy efficiency, sustainability, and renewable energy topics throughout the world.


Getting from AEDGs to Zero-Energy Buildings

Buildings account for nearly 40% of U.S. energy use. ASHRAE, IESNA, USGBC, AIA, and DOE have collaborated on a series of Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDGs) for at least 30% energy savings beyond Standard 90.1-1999. The guides provide prescriptive packages for each climate zone to reach the 30% energy savings. The AEDGs are accepted for points toward LEED-NC certification (instead of simulation). Recent studies have shown that it is possible today to achieve a zero-energy building but they are costly. This presentation provides an overview of the AEDG process as well as examples of packages and case studies from each guide. Also presented are examples of today's zero-energy buildings and a number of activities to aggressively move buildings to substantial energy savings over the next few years.
