Scaling Energy Connections:
Buildings, Cities and Vehicles

John Phelan, P.E.
Energy Services Manager
Fort Collins Utilities
Net Zero Cities
October 22, 2013
First Principles – Climatic Design
• Solar geometry
• Seasons

• Heat flows
• Wind patterns
• Skilled and knowledgeable industry
• Delivering high performance buildings is
rarely a technical issue
Assumptions – Energy Urban Design
• Buildings
• Don’t move
• Last 50-100 years
• See multiple rehabilitations in their lifetime

• Every project is an opportunity not to be missed
Scaling Energy Connections – Why?
• System level efficiency
• Source to end-use

• Carbon Reduction
• Vibrant and healthy community
Scaling Energy Connections
• Interconnection and optimization of energy systems
• Infrastructure
• Electricity - wires
• Thermal (natural gas) - pipes
• Liquid fuels (transportation) - trucks
Current State
• Electricity

• Nearly 75% fossil based

• Thermal (natural gas)

• Nearly 100% fossil based

• Liquid fuels
(transportation)

• Nearly 100% fossil based

• Utilities sell commodities

• Cities are made up of
“buildings” and “projects”
Future State
• Interconnected and optimized energy systems
• Renewable based electric system
• Thermal and liquid fuels become the lingering fossil based
resources

• Conversion
• Thermal to electric
• Liquid fuels to electric
Challenges
• Information based electric grid
• New utility business model
• Services, not commodities

• Need to scale efficiency and renewables by orders of
magnitude
Challenges
• Urban design focus on “buildings” or “projects”
• Wrong scale to be interconnected
• Best we can do now is to optimize
buildings as individual assets after the fact
• Need to anticipate future
optimization at larger scale
Current Projects
• Fort ZED
• Smart energy test-bed
• Technical, partnerships, business models

• Efficiency and renewable energy
• Best practices and innovation, driving to scale

• Drive Electric Northern Colorado
Back to transportation
• People love cars, especially in the west
• Electrification potential for benefit or trouble
• Get ahead of the curve
•
•
•
•

Urban design – where we live
Vehicles – how we move
Utility design – behind the scenes
Supply resources – make it clean

• Humans… - make it easy
Thanks!
