Education Energy Audit
Large-scale energy audit program across 125 junior high schools, assessing building envelope, heating systems, ventilation, and lighting. The initiative delivered detailed diagnostics, operational optimization strategies, and long-term retrofit recommendations for improved efficiency and comfort.
Heating Optimization
- Reduced operating schedules, start-ups, and shutdowns.
- Adjusted daytime and nighttime set temperatures.
- Modified heating curves for improved seasonal performance.
- Enhanced efficiency of heating production systems, pumps, and regulators.
Envelope Upgrades
- Improved exterior facade and parapet insulation.
- Replaced aging windows with high-performance units.
- Enhanced insulation under exterior floor slabs and in crawl spaces.
Domestic Hot Water (DHW) Optimization
- Installed pressure reducers and timers on electric hot water tanks.
Heating Network
- Applied thermal insulation to heating pipelines.
- Installed balancing valves and rebalanced heating loops.
- Restricted radiator output in selected areas.
Air Renewal
- Implemented AHUs with heat recovery where feasible to optimize ventilation.
Lighting Upgrade
- Replaced existing fixtures with LED luminaires.
Result: Delivered a prioritized action plan combining operational quick wins with major retrofit opportunities, setting a roadmap for improved energy efficiency and occupant comfort across the education portfolio.
