Energy Audit Update for Fort Stanwix National Monument - Week 3 Overview

This update outlines the progress made during the third week of the energy audit for Fort Stanwix National Monument (FSNM). Key activities include site visits, data collection on utility bills, analysis of energy consumption, and preliminary evaluations of energy conservation measures (ECMs). We explored renewable energy concepts such as solar, wind, geothermal, and biomass. Proposed ECMs include short-term and long-term strategies for energy conservation, operational adjustments, and system upgrades, with a focus on enhancing energy efficiency across the site.

  1. Fort Stanwix National Monument Energy Audit Week 3 Update: ‘Concept’ Generation Friday, December 19th, 2008 Customer: FSNM, contact: Debbie Conway Guide: Brian Thorn P09453

  2. General Update/Progress • First site visit, Saturday 12/13 • Refined customer needs, tour, pictures and data collection • Completed utilities bills database – current energy profile • Gathering energy consumption of current systems • Analyzing building envelope • Testing energy analysis software • Preliminary impact of ECMs

  3. FSNM ‘Concept’ Generation • 2 project components have concept generation needs: • Energy conservation measures (ECMs) applicable to FSNM • Pilot renewable energy scale-project • At this point, only high level renewable energy concepts • Additional research and project components required • Renewable energy concepts for further evaluation: • Solar Power • Wind Power • Geothermal Power • Biomass

  4. FSNM Energy Conservation Concepts • Broken into short and long term concepts • Short term: operation & maintenance approach, low cost replacements and or upgrades • Long term: retrofit through replacement, upgrade systems • Generated from site visit and current available data • Short term: • Willett Center Concepts: • Reduce lighting system load during non-peak operation • Adjust operational hours during non-peak operations • Utilize window shades more efficiently for heating/cooling • Use high efficiency light blubs where possible • Repair duct leaks • Adopt all energy star products

  5. FSNM Energy Conservation Concepts • Short term continued: • Willett Center • Improve door and window seals • Implement tinted or reflective glass • Adjust exhibit zone temperature range • Install ceiling fans in exhibit section • Fort and Site-wide concepts: • Employee training program • Solar powered walk way lights • Replace T12 with T8 lights • Replace kitchen and auditorium equipment • Long term (ongoing concept generation, data driven): • Replace AC units in Fort • Insulate attic space more efficiently in Willett Center • Implement heat pumps (renewable energy)
