The Smart Grid: Do Building Owners Really Care? Speak Up in BSRIA Survey
BSRIA (Building Services Research and Information Association) are carrying out the research for a CABA (www.caba.org ) study which is looking at the Smart Grid and its impact on intelligent non-residential buildings, including Net Zero Energy Buildings. We shall be carrying out both telephone interviews and face to face interviews across North America over the next few weeks. I shall be in Ontario 23-25 Nov, then in California until 1st Dec, then Dallas 2-5th Dec and may extend my visit in Texas for a day or two beyond that.
To summarise, the objective of this study is to gauge building owner, tenant awareness and interest in the Smart Grid, initiatives related to energy monitoring and savings and the right way to approach this if Smart Grid and/or Net Zero Energy Building initiatives are to be adopted. We are also looking at timeframes, adoption rates and business opportunities for all stakeholders on the supply side. We are concentrating on Non-residential buildings that have a building management system (BMS).
We would like to spend an hour or so with respondents for a discussion on this subject, as a face to face meeting during the time mentioned above, or by telephone over the next few weeks. No feedback or comments are attributed to individuals or their companies and all respondents will receive a complimentary résumé of the report findings early in 2012.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Regards, Jeremy
