To help operator members learn more about reducing costs and emissions in their homes, BC Care Providers Association (BCCPA) and EngAge BC are pleased to announce a new webinar series titled Energy Management 101. Facilitated by Energy Specialist, Jasdeep Singh Gulati, these webinars will occur on Wednesdays throughout September.
Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) – The Worx Hub (with Siemens)
How does a seniors living community go from paperwork orders to a digital, mobile system that helps them complete most work requests in two days — and improve their perception across the organization? The Worx Hub is a modern, all-in-one maintenance solution that enables hospitals and seniors living communities to streamline and master their assets and operations.
Learn from the Siemens (Brightly) team about the working, benefits, Case Study and Demo to use the Worx Hub application.
Date: Wednesday, September 6th
Time: 12 pm to 1:30 pm

Gas Engine Heat Pump and Variable Refrigerant Flow System (VRF) – Gas (with Guillevin)
Yamar Gas-engine Heat Pumps (GHP) provide efficient gas-powered heating and cooling solutions for all kinds of buildings. By using world-class Yamar gas-engines to drive the system, these reversible air-source heat pumps can give low running costs, reduce CO2 emissions, and use minimal electricity. Yamar Air-to-air (VRF) and Air-to-water GHP systems, Yamar can provide efficient and cost-effective solutions for a wide range of cooling and heating applications.
Learn about the working operations of the difference between different technologies of Gas Engine Heat Pump and Gas VRF Systems.
Date: Wednesday, September 13th

*FortisBC is also offering rebates for installation of these systems.
EcoPilot AI Solution
EcoPilot®’s is an AI solution that can bring energy savings to your buildings. It collects real-time data to automatically and continuously optimize building energy requirements. A common challenge with traditional HVAC systems is they are reactive and often statically scheduled; whereas buildings require a dynamic solution to be able to proactively respond to changing weather, heating and cooling loads, occupancy fluctuations, and utility rates.
Is it a good fit for your home? Join us to learn more about the EcoPilot AI solution for your building.
Date: Wednesday, September 20th

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) (with Guillevin)
In today’s world, where the promotion of resource and energy recycling is required, a cogeneration system is an effective option as an ideal distributed energy system.
Cogeneration systems are highly efficient on-site systems that generate power where, when, and for as long as it is needed, while reducing CO2 emissions and environmental impact. In addition, the reduced fuel consumption contributes to improved operational cost performance for our customers. CHP increases resiliency and sustainability.
