Built in 1871, this downtown Toronto historic site, Berkeley Castle is a 148,614 square foot commercial office/retail asset housing 300 occupants. Having achieved NRCan 2019 and 2020 ENERGY STAR Building Certification, Berkeley Castle continues to strive for energy reductions and optimum operational performance.
In 2016, Berkeley Castle implemented our Energy Management Action Plan (E-MAP) as part of their long-term Energy Efficiency Initiative to optimize building operations and performance.
Real-Time Monitoring was installed in 2016 to allow Berkeley to: “Manage what we Measure”.
A new BAS was installed complete with third-party commissioning (Cx) in 2018.
The E-MAP tracks, manages and sustains reductions through the 3 Ps of:
People, Process, and Products:
People make decisions. Essential stakeholders (operations and management) must be present to ensure ongoing communications.
Process ensures a systematic and holistic approach is in place to manage use, track targets and sustain savings and reductions.
Products are vital to support the process and people converting information to knowledge to make informed decisions.
