High efficiency next-generation rooftop units (RTUs) are estimated to reduce energy costs by up to 50% compared with conventional RTUs.
As part of the Commercial Building HVAC Accelerator, the Commercial Building HVAC Campaign aims to help commercial building owners and operators reduce operating costs by increasing the adoption of innovative high efficiency HVAC technologies. DOE will provide building owners and operators with resources and guidance to support both site-level and portfolio-level installations.
What are the benefits of joining?
In collaboration with the National Laboratories, the campaign will provide building owners and operators with technical assistance, which includes:
- Decision trees and guidance documents to support site-level and portfolio-level evaluations
- Estimates on the energy and economic comparisons for different geographic and climate regions
- Case studies showcasing how building owners have successfully implemented high efficiency RTUs to achieve their goals
- Peer-to-peer learning through working groups on topic areas, including manufacturers' equipment specifications, validation activities, workforce challenges, utility engagement, and more.
