Lessons learned from recommissioning a public office building

Abstract

Energy consumption of HVAC system play a big role on the whole building energy usage. Recommissioning on HVAC system can improve build comfort and its performance. Taking the recommissioning of public office as an example, the issue of the energy consumption of HVAC system was found, control scheme of chilled and hot water system and AHUs was optimized, the new energy saving control scheme was determined, and the actual energy consumption was analysed. The result show that recommissioning for the public office building achieved obviously effect, and the rate of energy saving is 18%, 33% and 10% for chilled water, hot water and electricity, respectively.
