10. Improve energy performance in operation
1.Building operation indicators
● Building usages only: HVAC & auxiliaries (pumps …), lighting, sanitary water
● without activity usages: power sockets,restaurant
● Indoor heated area
● ~60% of total energy consumption
● all energies (electricity , gas)
● ratio in kWh/m².year final energy
2.Total energy consumption indicators
● all usages
● all areas ( incl parking)
● 100% of total energy consumption
● all energies (electricity , gas)
● value in kWh final energy
3.Environmental indicators
● water consumption
● CO2 emission
● Waste treatment : hazardous and standard in tons ( ISO 14001)
Schneider Electric 10
11. Action plans to improve energy
performance in operation
● Change AHU regulation: adaptable threshold of external temperature, non
linear control
● Set dynamic controls of air pressure set points and adapt air flow through VSDs
frequency control
● Fine tune temperature set points (change the value, adapt by zone)
● Fine tune time scheduling for AHU
● Adapt lighting control modes (for instance allowing occupants to manually shut
off during occupation mode)
● Favour ECO friendly behaviour : switch off , ECO mode for PC , stop water
taps, reduce temperature setpoint in occupation mode , stop task lighting
Schneider Electric 11
12. Office zone control for optimum balance
between energy consumption & comfort
● Design principles
● zoning with a 2 x 1,35m grid (13m²) ; enables enhanced flexibility& scalabilty for future room reconfiguration
● shared sensors and control panels between applications ; reduced CAPEX
● mixed centralized (BMS) & occupant control : continuous optimum balance between EE and comfort
