The DOE’s R&D programs are focusing on the building envelope, specifically a) walls, roofs and foundations; b) windows and doors; and c) whole building design. These programs are detailed below. Research relating to building envelope systems is being conducted on the thermal performance of wall, roof, and foundation systems exposed to realistic field conditions at various national laboratories, including NREL and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). Modeling and testing facilities generate results, which are disseminated by ASHRAE. One DOE research center is the Building Envelope Research User Center, which works with private industry through cooperative research and development agreements and user agreements. The Building Envelope Research User Center develops more efficient low-sloped roofs, attics, and above-grade wall and foundation systems, and then makes the results available through an internet-accessible research laboratory for the building industry. Advanced envelope systems are intended to establish the technology base to accelerate the use of sustainable, high-thermal-performance wall systems through a partnership with the building industry, manufacturers, and code groups. Test facilities are being used to determine the efficiency of innovative wall systems, such as replacement of non-hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) or chlorofluorocarbon-blown, closed-cell foam products, thermally broken steel-stud wall systems, and establishing whole-wall performance database and rating procedures. Opportunity #1 – High Performance (Triple-Paned) Window Bulk Purchase Program Conventional windows are estimated to consume 4.4 quadrillion Btu (quads) of energy in the United States each year through increased heating and air conditioning loads. The windows and doors R&D program focuses on technology development and design tools/technology support. The projects are intended to catalyze private investments in energy efficiency by reducing uncertainty and risk and to address high-risk activities that are unlikely to attract private investments. It also includes strategies to drive the marketplace toward more widespread use of advanced technologies by creating an accurate and unbiased information base for decision- makers, providing technical underpinnings for the development of standards, and supporting voluntary programs to encourage use of more effective window systems. Activities are highly leveraged by partnerships with the fenestration industry, government laboratories, universities, utilities, and consumer groups as well as other relevant DOE programs. Advances in low-e coatings for windows are estimated to have saved $8 billion in the United States alone. This is one result of the DOE’s windows and doors programs. Technology support is currently being addressed through the DOE’s coordination of a bulk purchase of R-5 (U-value of 0.22 or less) windows and low-e storm windows to expand the market for high efficiency windows. High performance and triple paned window products are available for bulk purchase orders through mid-2011. It is recommended that DOD collaborate with the DOE in this arena through the purchase of triple-paned windows for both renovation and new construction projects. Over 40 qualified vendors are listed through the program. The program offers more information on products and vendors, as well as an energy savings calculator. 152PDF Image | 4th Annual Chena Renewable Energy Fair
