Abstract

The Philippines’ need for electricity has dramatically expanded over the last decade due to the country’s growing economy, population, and significantly subsidized energy rates. Eventually, especially in schools, integrating green technology may be a way to solve the rising need for electrical energy. But the acceptance rate of such technology is low due to the expensive set-up costs, climate irregularities, and insufficient awareness of the customers and trained professionals. But before utilizing green technology, an energy audit should be conducted as it is the first step in reducing energy consumption at the facility level and assuring a level of efficiency that is acceptable. University campus is a representation of diverse buildings with diverse and substantial energy consumption thus providing an excellent testbed to identify the characteristics of the energy consumption of mixed-use buildings. This study was conducted to five universities aimed to evaluate the varied factors that influence electrical energy consumption through estimation of the effects of changes in the consumption of this higher educational institutions (HEI) in terms of their profiles using regression and correlation as a statistical tool. The result will provide preparation for energy management system that can properly identify energy conservation measures.
