  1. Energy efficiency in buildings Case studies from around the world Case studies and most slides prepared for ESCAP by Prof. B. Mohanty

  2. Around 50% of all electricity is used in buildings Source: OECD/IEA, 2008, Energy Technology Perspectives 2008

  3. Pre-construction Construction Operation Demolition Energy and buildings • During building construction & renovation(Embodied energy in the building materials, Energy needed during construction & renovation process) • During building operation over its life span (Energy to achieve thermal and lighting comfort, Energy needed for types of appliances) Demolition Power plant Site Assembling Materials Electricity-HVAC Solid waste Extraction Transport 50-100 years lifetime! Slide prepared for ESCAP by Prof. B. Mohanty

  4. Embodied versus operating energy Manufacturing 1. Indirect 2. Direct Embodied Energy Operating Energy Linkage Poor design, less comfort, higherelectricity consumption By combining different techniques, small increases in embodied energy will greatly decrease operating and total energy use

  9. Best practices and exemplary buildings • Government support for existing residential homes: Thailand • Study the house design • Provide advice through expert team for improving energy efficiency • Extend financial support up to 30% of the actual improvement costs • Support from national energy agency (DEDE) for the construction of energy efficient new residential homes • Detailed design of 3 types of individual houses of different sizes and costs based on detailed study carried out by experts • Construction permit given by concerned authorities in a short time

  10. Best practices and exemplary buildings • Low-cost energy efficient housing promotion: Thailand OPTION A Land area: 13.00 m. x 16.00 m.; Built-up area: 84 m2; Configuration: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, living room, dining room, kitchen, parking for 1 car; Estimated cost (2004) 700,000 Baht

  11. ING office building in Amsterdam • One of the pioneer sustainable building • Features of the building • Absence of air conditioning system • Use of massive 18” interior walls to act as insulator and building flushed with night air • Building energy consumption one-tenth of its predecessors and one-fifth of new office building • Annual energy cost savings of US$2.9 million compared to costs of additional features of US$700,000 (payback time of only 3 months) • Productivity gains through lower absenteeism

  12. Role of public authoritiesExamples of implementation in China • Harbin / Heihe • Rehabilitation of 6 buildings (20 500 m2) • Construction of 20 rural houses • 50% heating energy savings (65% in 2 buildings) • Beijing • Construction of 240 000 m2 of residential & commercial buildings • 65% & 75% energy savings for commercial & residential buildings, respectively • Shanghai • Construction of 61 000 m2 of residential & commercial buildings • 65% heating & cooling energy savings Extremely cold Cold Cold in winter and hot in summer

  13. Heat transfer & comfort in rural housesHeat consumption of rural houses • Simulated heat consumption of a conventional rural house in Heihe area

  14. Heat transfer & comfort in rural housesHeat consumption of rural houses • Simulated heat consumption of a well insulated rural house in Heihearea: • Most insulated house constructed with following features • 18 cm EPS insulation in walls • 12 cm EPS insulation in floor • 18 cm EPS + 20 cm wood chips in the roof above the ceiling • Triple glazing plastic windows + well ceiled night times curtains • Improved air tightness with inlet pipes for fresh hygienic air • Assumption: the whole house is maintained at 18°C throughout winter • Average coal consumption of the house: 2.75 tons/year • This represents 72% savings in fuel consumption!

  15. Heat transfer & comfort in rural housesHeat consumption of rural houses • Simulated heat consumption of a well insulated rural house in Heihe area

  16. Heat transfer & comfort in rural housesComparison of heat consumption • Results of measurements made on insulated houses in Heihearea: • A well insulated house uses 2.5 times less energy/m2 than the conventional one; • A very well insulated one uses 4.4 times less energy/m2 than the conventional one

  17. Heat transfer & comfort in rural housesParameters of thermal comfort • Parameters with significant influence on thermal energy use in winter • Internal air temperature • Inside building envelope temperature (walls, glazing, roof, floor) • Mean radiant temperature, which is the temperature effectively felt by occupants • Internal relative air humidity that should be kept below 60% for better comfort and for avoiding condensation and moisture appearance on inner walls; • Velocity of air streams on occupants with air colder than skin temperature (about 32°C) should be kept below 0.2 m/s; • Temperature gradient in the room should be kept minimal by preferring radiant heating systems rather than convective ones
