Résumé

This paper presents a comprehensive plan for renovating a thirty-year old elementary school located in the Midwest United States to achieve net zero energy. This preliminary design earned a 2nd place finish in the Elementary School Division of the U.S. Department of Energy’s 2020 Solar Decathlon Design Challenge. In addition to adding solar energy, the proposed renovations included modifications to the building envelope, mechanical systems, lighting, plug loads, and building automation systems. Additionally, a living wall of plants called a Biowall is recommended for improving Indoor Environmental Quality. A corresponding economic analysis was conducted on each proposed renovation to identify which features should be implemented immediately and which features should be accomplished over time. The resulting plan for Phased Net Zero (PNZ) could become a template for similar elementary schools to save energy, reduce operating costs, and improve the student learning environment. This strategy for improving existing educational facilities is becoming important because many public schools are facing the challenges of declining budgets, aging facilities, and competition in the form of alternative forms of education.
