Demonstration of the Whole Building Diagnostician

Test and demonstrate automated commissioning and diagnostics using the Whole-Building Diagnostician (WBD) in actual buildings with actual operators and energy service providers to: (1) prove WBD efficacy in automatically detecting energy efficiency and outside-air supply problems in buildings (2) test and demonstrate the ability of users to interpret and act upon the information provided by the tools to correct building operational problems (3) develop case studies of the impacts of using the tools in terms of the type and number of problems found, the energy savings, and fresh air-supply impacts of correcting the problems (4) and provide early feedback from users, based on their experience with actual automated commissioning and diagnostic tools, to guide development and implementation of the other tools in the future, including those in the program plan.
