Coffee & Conservation Series (#15)
Energy audits, Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs), sustainability initiatives, and decarbonization roadmaps often generate valuable recommendations, yet many organizations struggle to maintain visibility and accountability throughout implementation. Critical information is often spread across building automation systems, utility meters, maintenance platforms, spreadsheets, contractor reports, and sustainability programs, creating operational silos that limit performance improvement.
This webinar explores how a whole-building approach can improve energy performance by bringing together energy, operations, maintenance, sustainability, and project stakeholders through improved visibility, traceability, and operational intelligence.
This session is intended for energy managers, facility professionals, engineers, sustainability practitioners, building operators, and property managers seeking practical approaches to improving building performance and achieving measurable energy and carbon reductions.
Presenter:
Nishanth Murthy, CEM, LEED AP® O+M
