Dartmouth College | Campus Energy Management System: Strategic CEMS Upgrade
Listen to this articleThe IBcon Smart Building Best Practice Showcase is an annual event held at the Realcomm | IBcon conference where real estate leaders present their most innovative, technology driven commercial and corporate real estate projects. These projects demonstrate leading-edge technologies and vision for intelligent and adaptive design that is transforming the next generation of IT-enabled real estate. The Weekly News Briefing will feature a unique Showcase project each week.
As part of an ongoing commitment to improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, Dartmouth is making progress on its sustainable energy program, which will move the campus closer to meeting long-term sustainable energy goals. Past upgrades include implementing energy efficiency improvements to existing facilities and designing new
high-performance facilities.
Multiple current and future projects are in the works, including overhauling the campus energy infrastructure and buildings to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and address overdue infrastructure maintenance, conversion of Dartmouth's heating distribution system from steam to low-temperature hot-water, and evaluating a range of alternative heat-generation sources (such as heat pump and geothermal systems, solar thermal, and a large-scale solar photovoltaic field) which could be implemented over time. Dartmouth’s CEMS upgrade was strategically planned by its Smart Campus Steering Committee comprised of multiple stakeholders and integrates data across multiple campus systems.
