Building a NetZero Foundation: Using Fault Detection & Diagnostics to Prevent Energy Waste at the Source
As organizations work toward NetZero operations GHG emissions, addressing energy waste at its source is crucial to achieving long-term sustainability goals. This session explores how prevention and avoidance serves as the foundation for an effective energy management program, focusing on real-time monitoring and correction rather than reacting to waste after it has occurred.
Attendees will learn how Kite Pharma is leveraging Fault Detection and Diagnostics (FDD)—an intelligent analytics tool that continuously monitors HVAC systems and pinpoints the highest priority energy and maintenance issues—to prioritize prevention and operational Improvements over capital projects, electrification, and renewables. Specifically, Kite Pharma will share how they are implementing FDD in their Foster City facility to maximize return on investment, reduce resource demands, right-size future capital investments, and free up capacity for site or process expansions.
Learn how optimizing existing systems and equipment for peak efficiency can drive significant energy savings. By leveraging FDD insights, organizations can sustain efficiency gains, prevent regression to non-optimal operations, and build a stronger foundation for NetZero success. This session is ideal for professionals looking to enhance their energy management strategies, reduce waste, and ensure their NetZero commitments are built on proactive, high-impact solutions.
