New technologies and practices are compared to conventional approaches, allowing participants to understand their direct role in improving building performance. GPRO EL is ideal for a range of professionals in the electrical industry, including subcontractors, installers and technicians. Students learn about economic opportunities for the electrical industry; the role of electrical systems within the “whole-building” approach; improving efficiencies in lighting and HVAC; new technologies for distributed generation; using benchmarking and other tools to maintain building performance; the electrician’s role in the building commissioning process; retrofitting existing buildings with energy-efficient technologies; and green bidding issues for electricians."
