0.2 CEU
Introductory
This training series focuses on federal facility auditing requirements, types of remote audits, how to use the Facility Energy Decision System (FEDS) building analysis tool, and how to perform remote audits and analyze the building data with FEDS. This second training in the series provides an introduction to the FEDS building analysis tool.

0.2 CEU
Advanced
Training presents information to consider early in project development and equipment specifications; to consider in system operations to extend useful life; to consider after severe weather events that generate waste; and to consider when repowering or decommissioning a system. Life cycle cost comparison of alternatives is presented including decisions that are driven by tax considerations of private partners (PPA providers).

0.2 CEU
Intermediate
This training addresses PV system vulnerabilities that may lead to severe damage (e.g., hail, wind, fire, heavy snow) beyond routine O&M plans and budgets and will focus on best practices in design, installation, and maintenance for avoiding damage and equipment failures, from the electrical system to the racking to the modules and the fasteners that tie these components together.

Recent legislative and executive action developed plans for workplace charging and fleet acquisition of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). Drivers who are unfamiliar with the technology often have questions about the different types of vehicles, safety, battery range, charging, and maintenance. This course presents clear answers to common questions about PEVs.

Execution for long-term success when integrating photovoltaic (PV) technology into a renewable energy portfolio takes planning. This 2020 Energy Exchange Extra session lays considerations for such a plan for a PV system's full life cycle including planning and design, operations and maintenance (O&M) budgeting, O&M resourcing, monitoring/reporting, financing, and operational contingency. This session also surveys PV factors that affect PV system performance, safety, reliability, and durability.

0.3 CEU
Introductory
This course teaches you ways to reduce operating costs and provide energy savings to the building you are responsible for or will be responsible for in the future. The focus is on buildings that do not have a building automation system (BAS).

4.5 hours
.6 CEU
Introductory
This training series will provide federal agencies with an overview of REopt®, a techno-economic optimization platform that can be used to evaluate distributed energy resources (DERs) to support energy cost savings, resilience, and decarbonization goals. It will focus on REopt web tool capabilities, questions that the tool can help answer, and model inputs and outputs, including site/agency data requirements, default assumptions, and key inputs relevant to federal agencies.

0.20 CEU
Intermediate
This 2019 Energy Exchange recorded session (Track 3, Session 8) explores how a typical laboratory is three to four times more energy intensive than an average commercial building and can account for up to 70% of a campus’ energy footprint, making laboratories a key focal area for energy and carbon management strategies.
