Energy University Courses

The course will explain how to quantify the electricity savings and provide examples of methods that can greatly reduce electrical power consumption.

This course will review how Demand Response works, why it is beneficial and what the Smart Grid is.

This course will review the different types of audits, the overall auditing process as well as the auditing methodology which will help prepare you to successfully participate in the energy audit process.

This course will review electrical, lighting, temperature and humidity measurement instruments that are used in energy audits.

As a continuation of Energy Audits Instrumentation I, the purpose of this course is to review the measurement instruments used in energy audits in order to select and employ the appropriate instrument for your auditing needs.

This course is extremely important in understanding building energy use and energy efficiency measures that customers can implement to save energy and money in their facilities.

This course will review the results documented from the creation and operation of the Data Center Observatory of the Parallel Data Lab housed at Carnegie Mellon University.

This course defines green buildings, explains the mission of the US Green Building Council and the requirements of the LEED rating system. Schneider Electric solutions for meeting the LEED requirements will also be explained.

This course will review the benefits of greening up your buildings and review some new approaches to save money and energy while keeping an acceptable level of reliability in your data center.

This course discusses how an HVAC system manipulates the properties of the air in the conditioned space to regulate a desirable rate of heat transfer. Calculations for Sensible Heat Transfer and Total Heat Transfer are also explained.

This course will review alternative methods for power distribution in the data center as well as provide case example to illustrate the benefits involved with these alternative methods.

This course will provide an overview of the basics of lighting which will present ways for you to reduce costs and increase efficiency with lighting.

This course is a continuation of the Introduction to Lighting Basics course and will provide you with an overview of the different lighting applications available.

The purpose of this course is to continue the assessment of the various lighting applications and determine their appropriate usage(s) in order to maximize their energy efficiency.

In this course, we’ll discuss energy accounting, and examine some of the concepts and methods involved in energy measurement and benchmarking. We’ll also explore the components of a utility bill, and provide benchmarking examples to verify charges.

This course explains how data center efficiency can be measured, evaluated, and modeled; we’ll also explore a comparison of the benefits of periodic assessment vs. continuous monitoring.

This course will review the various methods for evaluating the economics of energy efficiency projects in order to develop a business case or framework for implementation.
