2. Lexington Children's Place (LCP) Update Donna DiNisco (DiNisco Designs) Donna discussed Solar Design, VE Design Update & Gas Heating Element for VRF. The SMART Program is not finalized. Preliminary information shows: • 52-65kW Building + 211 kW Canopy's = a Total of 281 kW in solar generation possible. • Can also get incentives for battery storage. 25% - 65% storage capacity could last up to 4 hours. • Extra energy generation from LCP could provide crediting on the bill. • Solar energy credit could be transferred to another municipal building. VE Items • WF Beam changes are not turning out to be a savings. • Review of the Curtain Wall reduction by 25% was achieved by using veneer masonry/metal stud walls. Lexington Goals • 30% Energy Reduction over ASHRAE 90.1-2010 Increase mechanical ventilation up to 30% to reduce CO2 levels. Upgrade to MERV 16 Filters to improve filtration. 3. Visitors Center Update Don Mills (Mills Whitaker Architects), Chris Shaffner(The Green Engineer) Chris presented the revised LEED Scorecard, showing an 18% savings against the baseline. Energy use showed 33.3 kBTU/sf per Year. • Demand Control Ventilation being looked at to allow ramping up when busy. • Silver LEED still possible; 43-Yes, 14-Likely, 17-Maybe. • Possible linkage to another project's solar credits could allow for energy use here.
