Greenbuild Booth No. 2949

Honeywell introduced several new services to provide customers with the resources and tools to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The offerings, which include training, education and on-site staffing, add to the company’s portfolio of energy and environmental services designed to help schools, universities, municipalities and other organizations meet their sustainability goals while making smart financial decisions.

Sustainability Training and Awareness

Through sustainability training and awareness, Honeywell will help customers keep their staff, including facility personnel, up to date on environmental initiatives and conservation methods. The training, customized for each group, highlights the ecological impact of sustainability programs and aims to make employees part of the effort to reduce energy consumption and emissions. Honeywell will also provide the tools and support to help communicate internal efforts and results to external audiences -- online, in print and in person.

Sustainability Education

Another new offering is sustainability education, which helps K-12 schools, colleges and universities develop curriculum for teaching green concepts. The service provides a guide for teaching sustainability, from leveraging renewable energy to calculating carbon footprints. Organizations will learn how to use their buildings as teaching tools so students can see the impact of energy efficiency and conservation measures first hand.

Windows on the World (WOW)

Honeywell uses Windows on the World (WOW), a sustainability management and information system from Powersmiths International Corp., to augment sustainability efforts, including outreach and education, carbon emissions reporting, as well as continuous commissioning and performance validation of building systems. It collects an organization’s usage data from electricity, gas and water meters, and presents real-time information -- consumption, emissions, etc. -- in a single, easy-to-read view. WOW also includes both a kiosk and Web interface, which makes it easy to share data internally and externally.

Sustainability Director Staffing

Honeywell now offers sustainability director staffing. Honeywell sustainability directors bring management and technical consulting expertise to serve as an on-site resource for developing strategies to reduce carbon emissions. Directors facilitate interaction and collaboration among departments within an organization as well, and drive sustainability initiatives. This includes solutions planning, project execution, and measurement and verification.
