Why is Operating Energy So Important?
Operating Energy versus Embodied Energy
Operating energy accounts for over 85% of total energy usage in buildings

Energy Efficiency / Clean Energy
Roofing Strategies
• Reduce peak energy demand with cool roofs (Module 6)
• Reduce total energy demand with increased roof insulation (Module 7)
• Generate clean rooftop energy using PV, daylighting, or wind (Module 8)

• Increase Quality– Improve function & value
• Improve Durability– Extend service life
Green Building Design
Quality & Durability
Increased Quality = Enhanced Function
Improved Durability = Expanded Life Cycle
