LEED Behavioural Change Impacts in Energy Savings
2010-06-09 14:48:03 UTC
Hello,
I am currently working for a Canadian environmental fund, and have become interested in anticipating behaviour change impacts in energy savings. Currently doing an MSc in Environmental Management, I am exploring this topic for my Research Report. Specifically, I am researching the potential of anticipating effects of employee education in energy efficiency in Canadian LEED certified office buildings.
Before building construction, anticipated energy modelling or simulation output is carried out for comparison against the Model National Energy Code for Buildings (MNECB). The objective of my research is to develop a formula that can be used to anticipate the energy savings that can be made when a sufficient educational component is added to LEED projects.
I have sent out a survey consisting of questions relating to the LEED building, any educational programs the organization may have, and actual energy savings. Unfortunately, only one respondent has been able to provide their actual energy savings figures.
Does anyone out there know where I can find similar data or information? Does anyone know of similar research?
Your assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Kind regards,
Jacquie Taylor
