r <br />Santa Etna GUmats Action Piar[:.. <br />Municipal Operations Energy Measures <br />Energy use in buildings and facilities is responsible for 30% <br />of municipal operations emissions. Retrocommissioning is a <br />process that seeks to improve how building equipment and <br />systems function together. Retrocommissioning can often <br />resolve problems that occurred during design or construction, <br />or address problems that have developed throughout <br />the building's life. In all, retrocommissioning improves a <br />building's operations and maintenance procedures to enhance <br />overall building performance. Building optimization can be <br />a relatively low -cost way of reducing energy consumption. <br />Retrocommissioning of City buildings and facilities <br />would reduce emissions by 621 MTCO2e /year by 2020. <br />Retrocommissioning should be institutionalized as an ongoing <br />activity to ensure that savings continue over the long term. <br />40 The analysis assumes an annual energy savings of 1.3 kWh /sq. ft. from CEC. <br />2005.
