RCx CPD Webinar - Unlocking Building Performance Through Data-Driven RCx and ASHRAE Best Practices
The RCx Training and Registration Scheme aims to equip building industry practitioners with the knowledge and competencies required to implement retro-commissioning (RCx) effectively, fostering the industry's transition towards knowledge-based energy management and supporting Hong Kong's journey to carbon neutrality. As part of the Scheme's continuous professional development initiatives, the Hong Kong Green Building Council (HKGBC) is pleased to invite an esteemed industry expert to share valuable insights on the following topic:
Unlocking Building Performance Through Data-Driven RCx and ASHRAE Best Practices
Audience
Retro-commissioning (RCx) practitioners, building services engineers, commissioning providers, energy managers, facilities management professionals, energy auditors, and building owners.
Overview
Buildings generate increasing volumes of operational data through building management systems, energy meters, sensors, and connected equipment. However, data alone does not improve performance. Its value is realised only when it is systematically analysed and translated into practical operational improvements.
This webinar explores how data-driven retro-commissioning can unlock hidden opportunities to improve building energy efficiency, system reliability, indoor environmental quality, and operational resilience. It will demonstrate how building data can be used to identify performance gaps, diagnose system-level issues, and prioritise improvement measures in accordance with ASHRAE best practices.
In this one-and-a-half-hour webinar, participants will learn:
- WHY data-driven RCx offers a practical and cost-effective pathway to improving the performance of existing buildings;
- WHAT operational data, key performance indicators (KPIs), and analytical methods are required to identify inefficiencies and abnormal system behaviour; and
- HOW ASHRAE best practices can support a structured RCx process and drive operational efficiency.
The webinar will also explain how RCx practitioners can move beyond one-off energy-saving measures by establishing an ongoing, data-enabled performance management process.
Format
90-minute webinar (80-minute presentation + 10-minute Q&A session).
Prerequisite
A basic understanding of RCx, building services systems, or building energy management is recommended. No prior experience in advanced data analytics or programming is required.
