Background
• International interest (funding) for integrated building technologies to
enabled sustainable environments is on the rise for the past few
years.
– DOE- Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) Office — 2X Budget to
$2B from 2009.
– US Science National Foundation with the Agency Broad Science, Engineering,
and Education for Sustainability (SEES) initiative. - $1B/yr investment in 2012-
2014 across the agency, or 15% of the agency budget, in sustainability topics
including nexus with long-term climate trends and resilient buildings and cities.
– EU via 7th Framework Programme for Research and Technological
Development (FP7) earmarked over $20 billion for funding for Environmental
Management and for energy-efficient buildings and spaces of public use in
particular.
• Stakeholders; NYC 2025; CEC; EU Megapolis; others.
• Private sector interest; IT - Software, Controls, spin-offs.
• Private sector renewables; Solar PV; Solar Thermal;
• Private sector energy management.

US End-Use Energy Use (US DOE, 2001)
Breakdown of energy use in commercial buildings
Buildings represent close to $1T/yr industry in the construction sector, and more than $300B/yr in energy costs.

Advanced Automation Systems
• To provide comfort, convenience, safety to users
• Multi-tasking and adaptable to indoor/outdoor climate environment and user preferences
• Combination of high fidelity monitoring and control systems driven by advanced IT to reduce energy and provide comfort.
