ENERGY & POWER

Campus environments — universities,

airports, hospitals — require individual utility

solutions. A one-size-fits-all approach won’t

deliver the systems that will prepare your

institution for growth.

The dedicated Burns & McDonnell OnSite

Energy & Power Group brings the extensive

experience of more than 140 professionals

to bear on the master planning, design,

construction and commissioning needs of

your campus.

This team specializes in energy planning and

design, having led such projects for more

than $2 billion in infrastructure development

and demand side initiatives over the past

10 years. We have led more than 30 energy

master plans and have worked on more than

60 large health care and institutional utility

systems.

COMPREHENSIVE

MASTER PLANNING

Your energy master plan is a sustainable

road map to guide you in decisions about

maintaining and expanding campus

infrastructure. It can enable environmental

compliance, energy efficiency, growth

capacity, reliability, redundancy, flexibility

and the lowest life cycle system cost.

Looking at your utility requirements for the

next 15 to 30 years, your energy master plan

considers cost-benefit analyses of equipment

performance, alternative energy sources,

demand-side management and infrastructure

optimization to reduce environmental impact

and operating costs.

Our team will develop your base case load

profile and analyze your future load growth

using complex computer simulations.

Then, the team can reverse engineer the

infrastructure upgrades, associated capital

costs and efficiency effects to create

your master plan — your road map — to

prioritize projects informed by an accurate

financial picture that includes expansions,

maintenance and replacements.

Burns & McDonnell updated Texas A&M’s utility and energy management master plan and assisted with compliance and reporting. The master plan extends efficiency beyond the utility infrastructure into building standards and aids in securing funding and approval for upgrades over the next 30 years of planned campus expansion. Recommendations — including thermal energy storage and a heat pump chiller — involve $170 million in utility capital projects with $33 million in life cycle savings. Burns & McDonnell secured a $10 million U.S. Department of Energy grant for the university.

This comprehensive infrastructure master plan prepares Ohio State to meet growing campus energy demands for the next 40 years. The plan includes load projections, energy production and distribution requirements, analysis of centralized versus localized plant assets, and a life cycle cost analysis. Recommendations include thermal energy storage, combined heat and power, and condensing economizers. In total, the plan could save the university more than $40 million throughout its term.

Purdue University sought to meet its efficient energy management goals by creating a comprehensive energy master plan. Burns & McDonnell developed a plan focused on the efficient production of electricity, chilled water and steam in the campus utility plants. Analysis of the chilled water and steam distribution system, as well as building electricity, domestic water, chilled water and steam consumption led to equipment modifications that provided immediate annual savings in excess of $1 million.

Providing reliable power and protection from grid outages, the new Parkland central utility plant features 13,750 tons of cooling, 1,000 tons of heat pump chilling, 200,000 pounds per hour of steam and 17.5 MW of emergency power. The plant supports 2.5 million square feet of hospital and medical office buildings, and it can provide emergency electricity and thermal utilities for at least 36 hours during a grid outage — known as operating in “island mode.”

Reliability was a crucial design factor for the hospital, which serves 1,600 primary care patients daily, including 500 in the Emergency Department. It also houses the second-largest civilian burn unit in the country. When operating in island mode, an 850,000-gallon water storage tank can keep the hospital’s cooling tower functional and fulfill demand for water in faucets, sterilization equipment and other systems.

The project focused on sustainability, with an eye on water scarcity in the future. The heat pump chiller is expected to save 15 million gallons of water annually and pay for itself in four to six years. The system is also designed for flexibility, with room for a sixth chiller, seventh boiler and another generator to accommodate demand growth. There’s also a spare equipment bay ready for future technology needs, and other systems are easily converted to new uses or designed for easy movement of equipment.

A strong client connection was critical. The project was completed on schedule and within budget, and plans were adjusted throughout the timeline to support other initiatives. One example: Selected utility installations were expedited to enable work to progress on the new hospital. “Their team moved seamlessly into design and developed top-notch documents for construction,” said Maria Dierking, who served as Parkland’s senior program manager for the hospital replacement program. “Throughout the process, they worked closely with the entire hospital staff and design team and helped us to maximize the value

Rising utility costs and programs to reduce

energy use are among your top concerns.

The Burns & McDonnell team can take you

through an energy audit and advise you in

developing the business case for energy

efficiency measures. Your solution will

incorporate your financial models, reliability

requirements, maintenance structure and

corporate investment strategies.

This U.S. Department of Energy voluntary program engages participants in identifying energy-saving strategies and reducing consumption through facility improvements. The University of Utah intends to reduce campus energy use by 20 percent by 2020. As program manager, Burns & McDonnell is evaluating and developing energy efficiency projects, following with design and construction administration over the six-year, five-phase implementation for 12 million square feet of campus building space.

This comprehensive energy management program (EMP) provides a sustainable system based on a plan-do-check-act strategy, modeled after the ISO 50001 guidelines and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star initiative. Burns & McDonnell led the development and implementation of the EMP, which uses a holistic energy management approach covering awareness, efficiency measure identification and implementation, standards and best practices implementation, progress monitoring and validation, performance reviews, and continuous improvement.

This audit included detailed surveys of all buildings, analysis and modeling of a comprehensive list of conservation measures, and associated cost estimates. Because of security issues in sensitive reseach and development areas, the Burns & McDonnell team worked with Boeing to manage and schedule all audit activities. The audit also provided detailed analyses of program costs, capital versus operating expenses, and multiple financing alternatives.

As the university expands into a new medical district requiring a new, expandable cooling and heating facility, Burns & McDonnell provided energy analysis to establish the concepts for plant design, including thermal energy storage and heat pump chillers. The plant will integrate with existing campus chilled water systems and will be the first hot water plant on the campus. The project features 15,000 tons of variable speed chillers, 1,200 tons of heat pump chillers, more than 5.6 million gallons of thermal energy storage and 113,000 MBH (thousands of BTUs per hour) of heating equipment. The plant puts the campus on the leading edge of reliable, energy-efficient facilities.

Burns & McDonnell performed an energy analysis and detailed design for a central utility plant (CUP) for Parkland’s new hospital in Dallas. The plant features 13,750 tons of cooling, 1,000 tons of heat pump chilling, 200,000 pounds per hour of steam and 17.5 MW of emergency power to support 2.5 million square feet of hospital and medical office buildings. The CUP’s energy efficiency will help Parkland obtain LEED Silver certification for the $1.2 billion campus and provide emergency electricity and thermal utilities for at least 36 hours in the event of a utility grid outage.

THERMAL ENERGY

STORAGE

Few on-site energy options deliver as

powerful a combination of lower capital costs

and lower energy costs as a thermal energy

storage (TES) system. TES allows large

cooling systems to generate cooling energy

(chilled water or ice) for storage during

off-peak electrical periods, when rates are lower

and the system operates most efficiently.

Stored cooling energy is then used during

peak hours, when electrical demand is

higher, saving money and wear on expensive

equipment. With an installed cost lower than

new chillers and associated equipment, it’s

hard to beat.

A TES system can also reduce the risk of

electric grid overload by helping to manage

power demand through peak demand

reduction and ramping up or down in

response to grid load changes. When linked

with a combined heat and power system,

TES generates additional savings. Burns &

McDonnell has the experience to help you

find the right TES solution for your campus,

which could lead to millions in saved

operating expenses.

A TES tank installation is improving the reliability and efficiency of mission-critical services at Texas A&M. The system provides the capacity to shift chilled water production to off-peak hours, allowing the university to reduce electricity consumption during peak demand periods and increasing system capacity and operational flexibility. Potential annual savings

are $395,000.

An 8.8 million-gallon TES tank at the Texas Medical Center provides 76,000 ton-hours of storage capacity, enough to defer running electric centrifugal chillers during expensive peak demand times. In August 2011, the tank saved TECO more than $500,000 in energy costs, while providing increased redundancy and reliability. It works in combination with TECO’s combined heat and power system. The tallest TES tank worldwide at construction, it was named Steel Tank of the Year by the Steel Tank Institute and was honored with the ASHRAE Technology Award.

Thermal energy storage at this corporate headquarters and home of the F-16 Fighting Falcon and the F-35 Lightning II increases system capacity, efficiency and flexibility. The chilled water system responds directly to the dynamic nature of manufacturing loads. Pumps quickly modulate to meet large load swings while chillers remain at their most efficient setting.

Shortly after it was commissioned and placed into service in 2010, the 48-MW combined heat and power (CHP) system supplying the Texas Medical Center campus with steam and chilled water faced one of the hottest August days on record. TECO didn’t pull a single watt of electricity from the grid that day. The CHP system didn’t miss a beat. Combined with 32,000 tons of new chiller capacity and a thermal energy storage (TES) tank, the largest district energy cooling system in the U.S. is a model of sustainability, operating at 80 percent efficiency. Environmental emissions also were cut by an estimated 302,000 tons in the system’s first year of operation, equivalent to taking 52,000 cars off the road. The district energy system has also been part of an initiative to bolster TECO’s service reliability in the face of natural disasters like the hurricanes that struck in 2005 and 2008.

The required growth of this CUP didn’t come with the ability to double the size of the site. Bordered by a waterway, busy roadways and an established medical campus, the site presented a challenging, constrained space to accommodate major construction, staging areas, major equipment lifts and more than 400 subcontractor personnel. Design-build project delivery enabled the tight coordination necessary to accomplish the task.

“The only way TECO could do this project is to have design (and) construction under one roof. We recognized that we needed to identify a firm that could come in and do the design, that could do construction administration, could do the procurement in between, and Burns & McDonnell brought that expertise in all of those (areas). There’s no question that there’s an efficiency in everything — from time, dollars, effort — when you have one point of contact,” says Steve Swinson, CEO and president of TECO.

The efficiencies in operation translate into financial advantages for TECO and its customers. The master plan implementation is expected to save more than $200 million over its first 15 years in operation. TECO was able to reduce its customer rates by 2 percent and

COMBINED HEAT

AND POWER

Combined heat and power (CHP) can

cost-effectively provide 100 percent of a facility’s

day-to-day electric and thermal energy needs,

simultaneously satisfying all or a portion of

backup generation requirements. That’s why

the Department of Energy (DOE) considers

it one of the most promising options in the

U.S. energy portfolio: lower greenhouse gas

emissions, high energy efficiency, potential

for nationwide implementation, and ability to

relieve the burden on the electrical grid.

Burns & McDonnell is recognized by the

DOE as an industry leader, and our team has

experience designing, building, permitting

and interconnecting CHP plants as large

as 200 MW and as small as 500 kW for

universities, hospitals, large office buildings,

data centers, corporate and government

campuses, and international airports. We can

develop financial and economic cost models,

prepare grant applications and arrange utility

partnerships to help offset the costs of

your system.

The GRU South Energy Center on the University of Florida campus provides electrical power, chilled water, steam and medical gasses for the Shands Cancer Center. The workhorse of this $45 million facility is a 4.3-MW, natural gas-fired combustion turbine with low emissions. The ultra-high-efficiency generator can run 24/7 and normally operates in parallel with one of two utility feeds from separate substations. The LEED Gold-certified energy center can generate all of the hospital’s and its own power needs on site. The plant, designed to keep the hospital operational even in the midst of a hurricane-driven grid outage, produces 4,200 tons of cooling and 30,000 pounds per hour of steam.

This complete design-build project provided an efficient, natural gas-fired CHP system that generates 48 MW of power and 330,000 pounds of steam per hour. It can operate as a base load system to serve 100 percent of the plant’s peak electrical load and TECO’s customers’ peak process and space-heating loads. Exceeding 80 percent efficiency, the CHP system saves an estimated 0.75 trillion Btu annually over separate electrical and steam generation and reduces carbon dioxide emissions by more than 300,000 tons per year. It also enables TECO to provide uninterrupted energy services in the event of a grid outage.

Burns & McDonnell conducted a Level II CHP study that investigated potential alternatives for expansion of CHP capabilities at Harvard’s historic Blackstone. The initial screening-level phase analyzed six options at Blackstone and six options for a new standalone CHP facility sited elsewhere on campus. The study examined several options and developed detailed performance characteristics for each, which were then subjected to a dispatch model to develop a plan for the most effective use of both existing assets and proposed additions.

REGULATORY

COMPLIANCE

Central utility plants face a challenging

regulatory landscape. At the forefront for

many is the National Emission Standard

for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial,

Commercial and Institutional Boilers and

Process Heaters — commonly known as

the Industrial Boiler MACT Rule — and the

National Ambient Air Quality Standards

(NAAQS). Boiler MACT requires compliance

by 2015, and facilities may have

to concurrently demonstrate compliance

with NAAQS.

The situation is unique for every facility.

Planning now is critical. Compliance

planning (testing and preliminary studies and

permitting) can take six to 12 months, and

air pollution control retrofits or new boiler

installations can take 12 to 30 months. Burns

& McDonnell can help you determine

your facility’s compliance status and select

appropriate measures to move you forward

with a comprehensive solution.

To identify air pollution control modifications to comply with Boiler MACT and other regulations, Purdue hired Burns & McDonnell to conduct a study and provide detailed design for

recommended changes to its Wade Utility Plant. The firm evaluated alternatives that allowed continued operation and assessed the ability of the existing plant auxiliary systems to support retrofits. Detailed design included new fabric filter and dry scrubber systems, which were retrofitted to the existing boiler.

To comply with the Boiler MACT rule, Penn State decided to eliminate coal as a fuel in its system, converting the boilers to fire gas with oil as a backup. To help analyze the options and design the selected solution, the university hired Burns & McDonnell to complete a boiler conversion study and a new steam generation study, as well as provide cost estimates and schedules for compliance. When the selection is made, Burns & McDonnell will provide detailed design and installation services.

Burns & McDonnell replaced three coal-fired stoker boilers with three new natural gas/oil-fired package boilers and made modifications to the remaining circulating fluidized bed boilers for compliance with the Boiler MACT rule. Services included environmental permitting, substation upgrades, demolition and remediation, prepurchase packages, and a building addition. The boiler replacement includes a new oil storage and distribution system, which allows Iowa State to continue operations during a gas curtailment. The new boilers interface with

DISTRIBUTION

AND SUBSTATIONS

As a recognized leader in the transmission

and distribution industry, Burns & McDonnell

has broad experience engineering a wide

variety of projects. Our analysis and

design experience ranges from small

4.16-kV projects to multimillion-dollar

500-kV efforts. We have designed

customer-owned substations for both private- and

public-sector clients, including transmission

interconnection configurations for CHP

systems and full analysis and design of

relay equipment. In some cases, installing a

customer-owned substation can pay for itself

in less than five years.

Such a facility provides improved reliability

and avoids outages more common with utility

distribution systems. In addition, our detailed

analysis and review of a campus electric

distribution system will show opportunities

to harden your system and provide the

dependable and consistent power required

for today’s complex and demanding facilities.

This project features six large pump stations with loads from 20 to 46 MVA along a 150-mile pipeline route. Burns & McDonnell assisted TRWD in determining if the local utility or water district should construct and own the transmission line extension and substation that would serve each pump station. After consulting multiple utilities and electric cooperatives to determine interconnection requirements and delivery tariffs and after performing life cycle cost analyses for each option, Burns & McDonnell recommended TRWD own the equipment and employ a standardized substation design.

The medium-voltage electrical distribution system on the Clemson campus requires a significant upgrade to continue safe and reliable operation. Substation and distribution switchgear

equipment are reaching the end of their useful lives, and the university plans to migrate away from the 5-kV system in favor of a more reliable and efficient 15-kV system. Burns & McDonnell is developing a detailed upgrade and replacement plan and preparing associated design and construction documents to modernize the electrical distribution system.

The Air Force Plant 4 substation equipment and 5-kV distribution feeder cables are nearing the end of their useful life. Burns & McDonnell estimated the life cycle cost for multiple replacement and upgrade options. Transmission service with a phased design and installation proved the most economic and reliable option, with Lockheed constructing a new substation adjacent to the existing one. The radial 5-kV distribution system will be replaced with a looped system to improve reliability and maintainability. Multiple radial feeders will be combined and connected

The Downtown New Orleans district energy system provides steam and chilled water services to numerous customers, including the Louisiana State University (LSU) Medical Center. Burns & McDonnell is the design-builder for the new Biomedical District Energy Plant, which will replace an existing boiler plant providing critical services to the Level I trauma center at LSU.

As the sole source of steam to critical and noncritical facilities, the plant must deliver reliability and availability in the face of potential hurricane wind loads, as well as house critical equipment above the flood plain-plus margin. The medical center is required to maintain operations for up to seven days in the event of a disruption in electrical, natural gas or water utility service in the district. Both nonpotable water and fuel oil will be stored on-site to support the critical steam load of 50,000 pounds per hour for that seven-day period. The urban area and constrained available footprint create construction and design challenges, requiring careful scheduling and equipment staging.

DISTRIBUTION

SYSTEMS

The power quality and thermal distribution

systems on your campus are critical.

They also present specialized needs.

Burns & McDonnell has extensive experience

with campus-level system analysis and

design, whether the concern is a deteriorated

tunnel, failed pipe supports or leaking

expansion joints. We develop complex steam,

hot water and chilled water distribution

models calibrated to existing conditions and

referencing GPS information and campus

maps. Once calibrated, the models simulate

growth, determine optimal routes and sizing,

and provide extensions to utility distribution

systems that enable flexibility and growth.

Any proposed alternatives and system

changes factor in construction phasing and

sequencing options to minimize short- and

long-term interruption of utilities. Those

phasing and sequencing requirements are

defined and incorporated in all construction

documents to keep your campus operating

and focused on education.

The Mayo Clinic expects to double in size over the next 30 years, growing along with the aging U.S. population. The existing infrastructure must grow as well. Burns & McDonnell analyzed multiple chilled water and steam distribution solutions and verified suitable sites for new production. Recommendations from the analysis included improvements to existing system efficiencies and a new utility/pedestrian subway system that can both feed utilities to new facilities and provide comfortable campus access for patients, visitors and medical staff.

Upgrades to about 1,200 feet of 1970s-era walkable distribution tunnels will increase the well-lit, maintainable space, improving conditions for university staff and boosting overall performance. Renovations and revitalizations will include: new high pressure steam and stainless steel condensate piping; structural repairs to existing tunnel piping support structures; buried, high-density polyethylene natural gas piping; tunnel ventilation shafts; and upgrades to the lighting and power systems.

A planned campus expansion study laid the groundwork for expansion of the chilled water distribution system and the conversion of the steam system to a distributed hot water system. Burns & McDonnell developed a utility master plan and recommended incorporation of distributed heating and cooling infrastructure that is reliable and economical. The systems would also be flexible and expandable to meet future growth in demand. Comprehensive flow analysis and system modeling software were used to analyze the hot and chilled water piping
