When a building is torn down for new construction, we loose more than the built resource (and its associated heritage)—we lose embodied energy. And at what cost? The embodied energy calculator represents a rough attempt to quantify this expenditure. See our teardown calculator to view the potential energy consequences, from building lost to new construction. In the meantime, continue to use embodied energy to confront the avoidable. Loss of a scarce resource. 2007 Building Energy Data Book.

CLEER Model Technical Documentation. June 24, 2013. Developed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Northwestern University. Client IT device operations. Data center IT embodied. This page provides a concise overview of the mathematical framework employed by the CLEER Model in its net energy and emissions calculations. The CLEER Model uses a bottom-up framework to analyze major societal end uses of energy. That are also defined by the user. Each end use is represented by a sub-model. Residential b...

A Smart Window to Sustainable Development: A Scientist’s Story - NIST Taking Measure Blog
http://nist-takingmeasure.blogs.govdelivery.com/smart-window-sustainable-development-scientist-story
A Smart Window to Sustainable Development: A Scientist’s Story. December 1, 2016. My colleague NIST researcher Nam Nguyen and I showing off our smart window test wafer. Credit: F. Webber/NIST. I think curiosity is at the root of all scientific careers. That, and insecurity. In my formative years, I felt compelled to assign a rational explanation to everything. I didn’t know it then, but I was practicing to be a scientist and having lots of fun. In high school, I continued my chemistry studies. When o...

Building Energy Optimization: Sun? Wind? No! We need Conservation and Efficiency!!
http://getgigawatts.blogspot.com/2009/09/energy-crisis.html
Monday, September 21, 2009. We need Conservation and Efficiency! Just this last week, I had the opportunity to attend the Asian Youth Energy Summit at the National University of Singapore. There were many very riveting speakers at this event including a number of solar, wind, biofuels (from algae even! This issue has prompted me to change my banner to reflect a few simple statistics that I quickly found in the Building Energy Data Book. And the Dept of Energy's Energy Information Administration. I'm a bu...
