ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS


OPERATING STRATEGIES

V.Manimegalai, M.Arch(General), II year, 1423008

A Strategic Approach to integrated building design is the key to achieving


high-energy savings at low or no extra capital cost in
buildings. Energy efficient buildings can be achieved through a holistic
design with energy efficient technologies and intelligent building
management.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS - OPERATING STRATEGIES

Energy efficiency is a measure of energy used for delivering a given


service. Improving energy efficiency means getting more from the
energy
that we use.
There are different ways to improve
energy efficiency. For example:
Innovation can lead to the equal or
greater output with less energy.
Cutting out wasted energy reduces
energy needed while maintaining
output.
Why now?
There are good reasons to set the direction on improving energy efficiency
finding ways to do more (or the same) with less makes economic sense;
it can help households and businesses reduce their energy bills at a time of increasing
energy prices;
many energy efficiency improvement schemes are approaching implementation and we
need to clearly set out the linkages and the collective ambition;
we need to be clear as to the role of demand side management as our electricity

ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS - OPERATING STRATEGIES


Energy efficiency in buildings is crucial for sustainable
development, mitigating climate change and limiting
resource use and a low-risk worldwide energy system.

Approximately 40% of global


final energy demand and one
third of the energy-related
CO2 emissions are related to
buildings (IEA 2008). Early
and comprehensive use of
energy efficient design and
technology can substantially
reduce both energy usage and
emissions.
THE STEPS TO ENERGY EFFICIENCY THROUGH A STRATEGIC APPROACH

ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS - OPERATING STRATEGIES


In the short-term, the Easy Efficiency Approach should be regarded as the minimum target.
It focuses on low-cost options, mainly passive options. Although it can already significantly reduce
energy consumption, this first step will not be sufficient to reach long-term climate
protection goals. It is thus necessary to implement and support an Advanced Efficiency Approach at
the earliest to avoid lock-in effects, which result in new, inefficient houses continuing in use for
decades because of long building lifetimes.
Improving energy efficiency in the Easy Efficiency Approach can reduce primary energy demand
for cooling, heating, ventilation and domestic hot water by 40 to 60% to achieve a Low-Energy
Building.
Improvements in the Advanced Efficiency Approach can reduce primary energy demand by up to
90% to achieve an Ultra-Low-Energy Building.
Further improvements, especially through the use of renewable energies reduce the primary
energy demand to nearly 0% or even beyond achieving a (nearly) Zero-Energy Building or a net

ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS - OPERATING STRATEGIES


To effectively reach these goals of energy efficiency in buildings, a
holistic package with a strategic approach is needed to reach to high
energy savings at low or no extra cost buildings.
The Strategic Approach follows the premise of first implementing
load-reducing Passive Options for building design, followed by
energy-efficient Active Options for thermal conditioning and
ventilation as needed and then fine-tuning building operation
through User Behaviour and Energy Management.
This integrated three-step process can reduce the primary energy
demand of a building to low or even ultra-low levels. Adding onsite renewable energy technologies for heating and cooling can turn
the primary energy balance of a building to the positive side, with
the building becoming a net producer of energy over the year.

As it turns out, if the wind
blows strong enough, it will
produce more energy than it
actually need. This is rotating
towers in Dubai, AE
This tower will be made up of
80 pre-fabricated apartments
rotating around a central
column, with the help of 79
giant wind turbines placed
between the floors.
The 420 meters-long building
will never look the same, not
once in a lifetime.
The wind turbines will produce
more than enough energy for the
whole building, the extra energy
will go back into the grid.
