Jan Topic:
THE LINK BETWEEN CONTINUOUS COMMISSIONING AND SUSTAINABLE
GROWTH:
A SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS MODEL
Over 40% of the greenhouse gas (GHG) production in the world can be
attributed to our buildings (Sisson and van Aerschot, 2007). Recent
legislation and standards will lead to the construction of more
sustainable buildings and zero energy buildings. However, what are we to
do with all of the existing buildings? Continuous commissioning (CCx) is
a process of commissioning a building to a base point and then operating
it with a continuous monitoring regime grouped with a regime of
preventative maintenance to optimize energy consumption, environmental
comfort, security, indoor air quality, water consumption, etc.
The course of the talk follows a natural progression through a
description of CCx and the path for implementation, and an overview of
sustainable growth for the corporation. An exploration of the
environmental, economic and social benefits and the interplay or ?link'
between the two follows. Finally, the talk covers the possible drawbacks
of the union between sustainable growth and CCx. The talk concludes
supporting the legitimacy and feasibility of the link between CCx and
sustainable growth for the corporation. The topic is limited to the
evaluation of the existing building as a business model and it is
concluded that this ?link' is specific, measurable, achievable,
reasonable and timely.
