Does the institution have any building space certified under the following green building rating systems for existing buildings?:
| Yes or No | |
| LEED for Existing Buildings or another 4-tier rating system used by an Established Green Building Council (GBC) | No |
| The DGNB system, Green Star Performance, or another 3-tier GBC rating system | No |
| BREEAM-In Use, CASBEE for Existing Building, or another 5-tier GBC rating system | No |
| Other non-GBC rating systems (e.g. BOMA BESt, Green Globes) | Yes |
A brief description of the green building rating system(s) used and/or a list or sample of certified buildings and ratings:
UNC uses Energy STAR Portfolio Manager to measure and track energy and water consumption.
The Energy Conservation Measures Program is an existing building commissioning effort utilizing in-house labor, outside contractor support, and minimal funding to achieve low cost energy savings. Analyzing and upgrading over 10 million square feet of building space since 2009 has resulted in almost 30% (weather normalized) energy savings and avoided $22 million in energy expenditures. This program, a subset of total energy saving projects, focuses on heating and cooling systems in existing buildings.
Total floor area of eligible building space (operations and maintenance):
Floor area of building space that is certified at each level under a 4-tier rating system for existing buildings used by an Established Green Building Council::
| Certified Floor Area | |
| Minimum Level (e.g. LEED Certified) | 0 Square feet |
| 3rd Highest Level (e.g. LEED Silver) | 0 Square feet |
| 2nd Highest Level (e.g. LEED Gold) | 0 Square feet |
| Highest Achievable Level (e.g. LEED Platinum) | 0 Square feet |
Floor area of building space that is certified at each level under a 3-tier rating system for existing buildings used by an Established Green Building Council::
| Certified Floor Area | |
| Minimum Level | 0 Square feet |
| Mid-Level | 0 Square feet |
| Highest Achievable Level | 0 Square feet |
Floor area of building space that is certified at each level under a 5-tier rating system for existing buildings used by an Established Green Building Council::
| Certified Floor Area | |
| Minimum Level | 0 Square feet |
| 4th Highest Level | 0 Square feet |
| Mid-Level | 0 Square feet |
| 2nd Highest Level | 0 Square feet |
| Highest Achievable Level | 0 Square feet |
Floor area of building space that is certified at any level under other green building rating systems for existing buildings:
Floor area of building space that is maintained in accordance with formally adopted sustainable building operations and maintenance guidelines or policies, but NOT certified:

A brief description of the sustainable building operations and maintenance program and/or a list or sample of buildings covered:
Energy Conservation Measures
1. Implement heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) schedules to save energy when buildings are unoccupied
2. Eliminate excess airflow
3. Identify and eliminate simultaneous heating and cooling
4. Implement temperature standards: Summer 76-78°F, Winter 69-71°F
5. Enable and optimize all heat recovery loops and economizers to capture “free” waste heat and cool outdoor air when seasonally appropriate
6. Enlist campus community to shut off lights and equipment
7. Vary air supply temperatures to meet building load while eliminating over cooling and excessive dehumidification.
