The commissioning of the Green Garage systems is an essential step in sustainability. It links all participants together in an accountability for our collective action and the system that results from these actions. We see it a vital start point for our learning labs.

Commissioning Relationship to GG Labs

  • The Sustainability Labs will grow naturally out of the Building Systems Commissioning Process at the Green Garage.
    • Commissioning will inform the Building Comfort Systems Lab on what on-going and short-term studies may be needed to improve operations and optimize performance of the systems.
    • Commissioning will recommend O&M checks that may be integrated into daily / weekly / quarterly / annual checklists for GG Services (building operations).
