European Conference on Mobility Management 7 May 2014 TRANSPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE (TDMI) – GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE ON MOBILITY MANAGEMENT PRESENT AND FUTURE The Transportation Demand Management Institute was incorporated in 1982 and is a 501 (c) (3) charity organization based in California. Originally part of the Association for Commuter Transportation (ACT), but is now a separate entity Current composition: 4 Board Officers and 11 Board Trustees mission Establish TDMI as international TDM / Sustainable Transport umbrella group facilitating information sharing and innovation in TDM Provide TDM educational opportunities through lecture series at various transportation and nontransportation events (such as ECOMM) Compile existing research on TDM and house it in one location for easy reference 3 TDMI Website at Transportation2.org TDM resource links to existing research A social media platform for TDM developments/issues/ideas Module to tie in TDM professionals to LEED Certification for Existing Buildings (EB) and New Construction (NC). 4 LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY & E N V I R O N M E N TA L DESIGN (LEED) POINTS THROUGH TDM High Point Value for Low Cost and Effort. 5 LEVELS OF CERTIFICATION 40-49 Points to be CERTIFIED 50-59 Points to be SILVER 60-79 Points to GOLD 80+ Points to be PLATINUM 6 LEVELS OF CERTIFICATION 100 Possible Points 6 Additional Points for For Innovation in Design & Operations 4 Additional Points for Regional Priority Credits 7 TYPES OF LEED CERTIFICATION • • • • • • • • • Existing Buildings/Operations & Maintenance New Construction Neighborhood Development Commercial Interiors Core and Shell Homes Schools Retail Healthcare 8 LEED – NEW CONSTRUCTION SUSTAINABLE SITES (SS 4.0) 9 LEED – NEW CONSTRUCTION SUSTAINABLE SITES (SS 4.0) 26 Total Possible Points 12 Alternative Transportation Points 10 LEED NEW CONSTRUCTION (NC) 45 40 35 30 25 28 20 Balance to Achieve Certification Alternative Transportaion 15 10 5 12 0 LEED Points 11 6 Points BUS RAIL x LEED NC SS 4.1 – Public Transportation Access LOCATE PROJECT WITHIN ½ MILE OF RAIL OR WITHIN ¼ MILE OF BUS 12 1 Point LEED NC SS 4.2 – Bicycle Accommodations PROVIDE STORAGE, SHOWER, AND CHANGING ROOM. 13 3 Points LEED NC SS 4.3 – LEV Parking PROVIDE PREFERENTIAL PARKING SPACES FOR LOW EMITTING VEHICLES AND FUEL EFFICIENT 14 VEHICLES 2 Points / LEED NC SS 4.4 – Parking Capacity PROVIDE MINIMUM PARKING, CAR/VANPOOL SPACES, CAR/VANPOOL DISCOUNTS, NO NEW PARKING LEED NC TDM OPPORTUNITY 12/60 Total Points toward GOLD (20%) 12/50 Total Points toward SILVER (25%) 12/40 Total Points toward C ER TIFIED (30%) 16 LEED – EXISTING BUILDING SUSTAINABLE SITES (SS 4.0) 17 LEED – EXISTING BUILDING SUSTAINABLE SITES (SS 4.0) 18 LEED EXISTING BUILDING OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE (EBOM) 100% 90% 80% 70% 25 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% Balance to Achieve Certification Alternative Commuting Transportation 15 10% 0% LEED Points 19 LEED EBOM SSC4 – ALTERNATIVE COMMUTING Mode Split and Surveys 20 LEED EBOM SSC4 – ALTERNATIVE COMMUTING Fuel efficient/ low emissions 13% Alternative Commuting (Mode Split) Telework 6% Transit 19% Walk/Bike 2% Compressed Carpool/Vanpool Work Weeks 8% 1% Drive Alone (non-fuel efficient) 51% 21 LEED Certification Points LEED EBOM SSC4 – ALTERNATIVE COMMUTING Points 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 Percent Trip Reduction 22 LEED EBOM TDM OPPORTUNITY 15/60 Total Points (25%) for GOLD 15/50 Total Points (30%) for SILVER 15/40 Total Points (38%) for CERTIFIED 23 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 24 Finding TDM Professionals who are Green Building Resources 25 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 26 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 27 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 28 European Experience • BREEAM – 250,000 buildings with certified BREEAM assessment ratings and over a million registered for assessment since it was first launched in 1990. 29 European Experience • BREEAM – A BREEAM assessment uses recognized measures of performance set against established benchmarks to evaluate a building’s specification, design, construction and use. – The measures used represent a broad range of categories and criteria from energy to ecology. They include aspects related to energy and water use, the internal environment (health and wellbeing), pollution, transport, materials, waste, ecology and management processes. 30 European Experience • BREEAM – It encourages designers, clients and others to think about low carbon and low impact design, to lessen energy demands created by a building before considering energy efficiency and low carbon technologies. 31 European Experience • BREEAM- Five Key Transport-related Aspects of BREEAM – Access to public transit – Proximity to amenities – Cyclist facilities – Max car parking standards – Travel plan – 32 European Experience Why is transport Important? • 72% of the UK travel by car to work • 77% use cars for food shopping • 55% use a car as transportation for school and childcare • All resulting in high CO2 emissions • BREEAM credits can be obtained in this area by reducing CO2 emissions through: • The location of your development • Parking and cycling materials you offer • The access to public transport • Access to local amenities • Implementing transport policies 33 Australian Experience • Green Star ratings tool launched in 2002 • By the Green Building Council of Australia • First ten years (2002-2012): – 500+ buildings certified – 8 million square meters of space • Ratings tools for offices, apartments, schools, university buildings, hospitals, shopping centers, and industrial facilities 34 Australian Experience • GBCA Green Star PILOT rating tools for: – Communities – Interiors – Performance of existing buildings • Green Star ratings based on: – Management, innovation, emissions – Energy, water, land use and ecology, materials – Transport, indoor environmental quality 35 Australian Experience • A secondary rating tool (NABERS) traditionally used to rate the actual performance existing buildings • NABERS assesses energy, water, waste and indoor environment (not transport) • The GBCA Australia’s new Performance Rating Tool includes transport, with points for an Alternative Transport Program (including additional points for surveys) 36 How TDM Professionals Can Register as Green Building Resources 37 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 38 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 39 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 40 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 41 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S 42 W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S W O R K I N G S M A RT E R , N O T H A R D E R TO G E T L E E D P O I N T S Questions?
