What they say about buldings Source: U.S. Department of Energy 2007 Building Energy Data Book. Sept 2007 The Numbers Tell the Story $370 Billion Total U.S. Annual Energy Costs 200% Increase in U.S. Electricity Consumption Since 1990 40% Total U.S. Energy Consumption for Buildings 72% Total U.S. Electricity Consumption for Buildings 55% Total U.S. Natural Gas Consumption for Buildings
Buildings Matter! Buildings construction/renovation contributed 9.5% to US GDP and employs approximately 8 million people. Buildings’ utility bills totaled $370 Billion in 2005. Buildings use 72 % of the electricity and 55 % of the nation’s natural gas. Source: Buildings Energy Data Book 2007
EPA Nat Action Plan for Energy Efficiency • 30% of energy consumed in buildings is wasted • 66% electrical, 34% gas and other • 15.5 kWh per square foot * 2003 EIA Commercial Building Consumption Survey
National average How ‘bout Berkeley Buildings? Stanley LSA Cory McCone Soda Koshland
Soda…Green? • 511 kw average power consumption • 4.5 M kwh per year • 41.2 kwh/sq ft annually • 3 times national average
With a little programming … Do nothing well …
Where does it all go? • Lighting? • Heating, Ventilation and Cooling (HVAC)? • Plug Loads – desktops, laptops, kitchenettes? • Servers? • Microfab?

Structural: Soda HVAC • Blow cold air throughout building • Maintain circulation • Adjust cooling with vents and VFDs • Heat it where needed • AC determined by needs of the worst heat load • Comm closet Cooling Towers Fans 530 420 340 287 288 290 Machine Room ACCs Pumps 2x chillers
SCADA portion • 1300 sense / ctrl points in Soda Hall • Vast database of action / effect • No science to turning all the knobs
Some initial steps • When you don’t (cant) have the sensors you want, get as much as you can with the ones you have. • Take inventory • Build models • Point measurements • Sample in time, space, population
Blueprint Analysis of Lighting Total Provisioning: 193 kVA How much is Active? Idle?
HVAC components • Chillers 2 x 130 kw • Colling Towers: 2 x 33.2 kw • Computer Room units: 12 x 45 kVA • AHU SF: 3.2 kw • AHU RF: 2.3 kw • Economizers: 4 x 2.6 kw + 2.1 + 1.4 • Supply fans: 4 x 2.3 kw + 1.4 • Pumps: 2 x 9.3 kw + 2 x 14 kw • Compressors: 2 x 5 kw - It’s all duty cycle
Estimating the Server Load • Forsake temporal dimension • Inventory the servers • Measure their idle and active power • Estimate total load
Server Power Consumption • Do nothing well
Putting it Together • x 1/PDU efficiency + ACC • If Pidle = 0 we’d save ~125 kw x 24 hours x 365 …

UCB today • Consumes 210 M kwh annually [campus sustainability assessment] • Buildings measured @ 130 M kwh annually [demandless] • approx $13 M • Top 15 buildings are 2-4 time national average khw/sq ft and constitute 58% of the 130 M • IT is a big part of the problem • IT can potentially be a big part of the solution • We need to gain most of the reduction by utilizing existing facilities better • “Physical” Information processing to identify where the energy goes, what to change and how. • Big gains come from changing behavior, and this is most effective from the bottom up. • IT is key to providing the energy awareness to guide action
Tweak the facilities knobs Change Behavior Auto-DR Study
Further evidence that behavior matters • 3x difference in consumption for same setting
Staged Energy Awareness • Export existing facilities instrumentation into real-time feed and archival physical information base • Retain isolation of facilities control • Augment with usage-focused sensing • Numerous emerging products, possible flagship • Create highly visible consumer feedback and remediation guidance • Think Pruis, not web page. Localized solutions. • Sponsor whole-building dynamic models • Expect it to generate maintenance work orders
