Description
Integrated hybrid heating systems are proving to have potential savings benefits for health care facilities. This case study reviews the innovative heating plant installed at the new Nemours Children’s Hospital in Lake Nona Medical City in Orlando, Fla. In this session, attendees will receive an overview of the features that differentiate a hybrid and integrated heating plant in terms of energy performace, domestic hot water consumption, and thermal demand. This session will enable you to:

Identify the operating strategies and potential energy savings that can be achieved with an integrated hybrid heating system.
Explain how domestic hot water loads can affect the overall heating plant demand.
Describe how a hybrid, integrated heating plant differs from a conventional heating plant.
Discuss the use of energy modeling in assessing equipment, system, and energy source options for a new or retrofit heating plant.

LEARNER OUTCOMES:
  • Identify how domestic hot water loads can impact the overall heating plant demand.
  • Identify the operating strategies and potential energy savings that can be achieved by employing an integrated hybrid heating system.
  • Recognize how a hybrid, integrated heating plant differs from a conventional heating plant.
  • Understand the benefits and limitations of the various heating sources that can be incorporated into a new or retrofit heating plant
