Total floor area of building space:
2,441,481 Square feet

O+M Certified Space

Building space must be certified under a rating system focusing on the operations and maintenance of existing buildings (e.g. LEED O+M) to count as certified space for this credit. Sustainability in new construction and major renovation projects (e.g. LEED BD+C certification) is covered in the Building Design and Construction credit.

Floor area of building space that is certified at each level under a green building rating system for the operations and maintenance of existing buildings used by an Established Green Building Council:
Certified Floor Area
LEED O+M Platinum or the highest achievable level under another GBC rating system 0 Square feet
LEED O+M Gold or the 2nd highest level under another 4- or 5-tier GBC rating system 0 Square feet
Certified at mid-level under a 3- or 5-tier GBC rating system (e.g. BREEAM-In Use, CASBEE for Existing Buildings, DGNB, Green Star Performance) 0 Square feet
LEED O+M Silver or at a step above minimum level under another 4 -or 5–tier GBC rating system 0 Square feet
LEED O+M Certified or certified at minimum level under another GBC rating system 0 Square feet

Floor area of building space that is certified under a non-GBC rating system for the operations and maintenance of existing buildings, e.g. BOMA BESt, Green Globes CIEB:
0 Square feet

Percentage of building space certified under a green building rating system for the operations and maintenance of existing buildings:
0

Energy Management and Benchmarking 

Of the institution's uncertified building space, what percentage of floor area is maintained in accordance with an energy management or benchmarking program? (0-100):
100

A brief description of the energy management or benchmarking program:
ÉTS has a system to monitor the consumption of electrical and mechanical equipment in its buildings. All these equipments are connected to a centralized management system allowing remote programming and control (real-time measurement, instant detection of failures, modification of setpoints, etc.) This system allows us to produce energy consumption reports in real time or for specific periods, for example for annual reports. It also allows us to monitor the consumption trends of our buildings and to take action if necessary. ÉTS also has electricity meters on the main electrical entrance of the campus and in most of its buildings. These meters measure kW (power) and kW-h (consumption). ÉTS also has steam meters to measure consumption (klb-h) and power (klb). For the benchmark, each year the Ministry of Education and Higher Education publishes a statement of the energy consumption of each Quebec university. This annual report, named EnerUNIV, positions ÉTS as the most energy-efficient university among all Quebec universities since the first report was published in 1999-2000. ÉTS is Quebec's leader in energy efficiency and one of the most efficient universities in the world. http://www.education.gouv.qc.ca/references/publications/resultats-de-la-recherche/detail/article/releves-energetiques-du-reseau-universitaire/ Energy management is a trademark of ÉTS, the management of resources such as water, air and energy are part of the university's culture, which is why ÉTS has the lowest rate of energy consumption among buildings of the same type.

Water Management and Benchmarking 

Of the institution's uncertified building space, what percentage of floor area is maintained in accordance with a water management or benchmarking program? (0-100):
100

A brief description of the water management or benchmarking program:
In accordance with municipal regulations, ÉTS has water meters at the entrance of its buildings. The data allow us to draw up consumption profiles and target optimisations.
