This paper describes the methodology and results of building energy modeling to validate and quantify the energy savings from conservation measures in medium-sized office buildings in four different climate zones in India. We present the different energy measures and their expected and simulated performances and discuss the results and the influence of climate.

This paper explores the role of international partnerships to facilitate low-energy building
design, construction, and operations. We briefly discuss multiple collaboration models
and the levels of impact they support. We present a case study of one collaborative
partnership model, the Scientific Planning Support (SPS) team. Staff from the Lawrence
Berkeley National Laboratory, the Austrian Institute of Technology, and Nanyang
Technological University formed the SPS team to provide design assistance and process
support during the design phase of a low-energy building project. Specifically, the SPS
team worked on the Clean Tech Two project, a tenanted laboratory and office building
that seeks Green Mark Platinum, the highest green building certification in Singapore.
The SPS team hosted design charrettes, helped to develop design alternatives, and
provided suggestions on the design process in support of this aggressive energy target.
This paper describes these efforts and discusses how teams like the SPS team and other partnership schemes can be leveraged to achieve high performance, low-energy buildingsat an international scale.

Market penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) is gaining momentum, as is the move
towards increasingly distributed, clean and renewable electricity sources. EV charging shifts a
significant portion of transportation energy use onto building electricity meters. Hence,
integration strategies for energy-efficiency in buildings and transport sectors are of increasing
importance. This paper focuses on a portion of that integration: the analysis of an optimal
interaction of EVs with a building-serving transformer, and coupling it to a microgrid that
includes PV, a fuel cell and a natural gas micro-turbine. The test-case is the Nanyang
Technological University (NTU), Singapore campus. The system under study is the Laboratory
of Clean Energy Research (LaCER) Lab that houses the award winning Microgrid Energy
Management System (MG-EMS) project. The paper analyses three different case scenarios to
estimate the number of EVs that can be supported by the building transformer serving LaCER.
An approximation of the actual load data collected for the building into different time intervals is
performed for a transformer loss of life (LOL) calculation. The additional EV loads that can be
supported by the transformer with and without the microgrid are analyzed. The numbers of
possible EVs that can be charged at any given time under the three scenarios are also determined.
The possibility of using EV fleet at NTU campus to achieve demand response capability and
intermittent PV output leveling through vehicle to grid (V2G) technology and building energy
management systems is also explored.
