Today’s Objectives • Utilities Expenditure & the Need for Control • Launch your Initiative • Taking Control • Feedback Click to add text
Introduction - Expenditure Typical Estate: Cost Breakdown
Need for Improvement Summary • Commitment to environmental targets will fail without active control • Departments missing achievable CONSUMPTION savings • Energy Management Investment is sound business sense
Launch Your Initiative • Make a commitment: Re-launched Initiative to Save Energy (RISE): • Reduction of consumption by ‘Housekeeping’ - proactive site management • Agreement of the target at All Regional & District management levels • Combine with a manual meter reading initiative
Taking Control STEP ONE - DIVIDE ESTATE INTO MANAGEABLE SECTIONS Eating the elephant! Use 3 priorities based simply on amount of energy use: Typically an estate will be: • PRIORITY 1 – 33%of energy used by only 5% of BUILDINGS • PRIORITY 2 – the next 33% used by 20% of BUILDINGS • PRIORITY 3 – the final 33% used by remaining 75% of BUILDINGS • The top 5% are the largest consumers, so should have easy savings • Not necessarily the most energy inefficient
Taking Control STEP TWO – RECOGNISE ISSUES WHICH INFLUENCE USE • ISSUES OUTSIDE THE FM’S CONTROL: • ISSUES WHICH FM’S CAN INFLUENCE & CONTROL:
Taking Control STEP TWO - ISSUES OUTSIDE THE FM’S CONTROL • Latent Plant & systems design: • Efficiency & type of heating / lighting systems • Air conditioned or not • Number of zones for time, temperature & lighting control These can only be addressed upon major refurbishment or ‘Spend to save’ projects • Size of building and Number of staff: These references can be used to benchmark performance - • Energy = kWh/m2 • Water = cubic metres/person Which enables: • Easy comparison of building types • Highlights poor performers • quickly identifies exceptions
Taking Control Progress - A/C in car park
Taking Control STEP TWO - ISSUES WHICH FM’S CAN INFLUENCE & CONTROL • Operation of the Building - Help & Guidance packs need to be provided: • Appropriate settings of Control systems • Controls audit • Management of expectations for comfort • Benefit from ‘Green Publicity’ • Magazines/websites Enhance site awareness • Posters • Management of service partners • Proactive and routine attention to detail • Monthly & quarterly feedback from league tables • Identifying quick win ‘spend to save’ measures
Taking Control STEP THREE - MANAGING THE PROCESS & MEETING THE TARGETS • Monitoring and targeting – Group target set for each FM’s portfolio • Site management & awareness training – More detail later…
Taking Control Monitoring and Targeting: • Regional accountability • Quarterly reporting based upon actual meter readings • Set targets on last year’s actual consumption in same quarter • League tables for each GOR based upon variance from percentage saving targets • Assistance on large sites with Half hourly consumption profiles
Taking Control: Monitoring and Targeting: Sample Clarity Profile - Daily
Taking Control: Monitoring and Targeting: Sample Clarity Profile - Weekly
Taking Control STEP THREE - SITE MANAGEMENT & AWARENESS TRAINING • Management of Service partners • Managing Staff Awareness
Taking Control Management of Service partners - Maintenance • Police the Controls audit: • Start stop times • Temperature set points • Heating extensions • Regular review of extensions • Housekeeping • Plant room lights off • Equipment SHOULD NOT be left switched to ‘hand • Water Leaks must be fixed without delay
Taking Control Management of Service partners – Security & Cleaning SECURITY: • Feedback & control • Switching on/off of lights • Reporting PC’s left on • Reporting heating /plant on out of hours • Shorten heating extensions CLEANING: • Feedback & control • Cascade Switching on/off of lights • Reporting heating /plant on out of hours • Daytime cleaning?
Taking Control Management of Staff Awareness: COMFORT CONTROL: • Manage winter temperature set points • Buildings are too hot • Every 1 degree C above 19 increases fuel use by an extra 10% • Heating extensions for only a few staff – alternatives? • Manage summer cooling: • Ensure heating is off before cooling is enabled • Overcooling is wasteful (Don’t cool below 24Degrees C) • Windows /doors open when cooling in use • Overcooling of server rooms Managing Staff Awareness in Liaison with the DWP Managing Staff Awareness in Liaison with the DWP Click to add text
Taking Control Management of Staff Awareness:Manage controllable waste: • LIGHTING CONTROL: • Canteen lights/equipment on after 2 pm • Stairwells & lift lobbies on in broad daylight • External lamps on in the day • Foyer & display lights on for no effect • Lighting switch map • OFFICE EQUIPMENT: • PC monitors left on 24/7 • Printers/copiers on 24/7 • Server rooms set below 24 degrees C • Underused fridges IT ALL COUNTS: A 5% SAVING 95% OF THE TIME IS AS GOOD AS A 95% SAVING 5% OF THE TIME!

Feedback Example: before and after:
Feedback Example: Detailed control audits • Preventing cooling demand in mild weather • Follow up action on weekly HH reports • Regular monitoring with corrective action • Sustained interaction:
Feedback Eliminating wasted heat in mild weather Trimming back excessive heating hours Reducing excessive temperatures Curtailing excessive expectations on comfort
Summary Re-launched Initiative: Saving Energy - RISE • Savings only maintained if FM’s make energy ‘Core Business’ • Provide Technical Support Package for FM’s to be effective • Sustainability needs Sustained Effort • 2% saving only needs: • 1.25 kW to be saved / hour, every day, at each site • Or more easily - 2.5 kW every hour when the sites are closed
Re-launched Initiative: Saving Energy Any questions RISE
