Description
Commissioning is on the cusp of evolution beyond the single-building
perspective and expanding into commissioning buildings as part of a broader
infrastructure where resilience, reliability, efficiency and performance form
the basis for "smart cities" and sustainable portfolios.
Performance Excellence in Electricity Renewal (PEER), is a
third-party rating program for sustainable power system performance in
city-scale projects, campus projects and locally-generated power supply
projects. Similar to the LEED rating system, the program is composed of
prerequisites plus core and bonus points. Green Business Certification, Inc.
(GBCI) administers both programs on behalf of USGBC.
What’s in it for commissioning providers? A lot! This is a
global market transformation, and a growth area for functional
testing and verification of building and infrastructure performance.
Utilities face several major opportunities that are
challenging the electricity system — a shift to cleaner energy sources, rising
demand, increasing amounts of data, and a desire for customers to contribute to
sustainability goals. Utilities can leverage the PEER standard and lessons
learned from PEER applications to expand into utility microgrids and district
energy systems.
