Energy budgets for office buildings?
To study the feasibility of devising energy performance codes - energy budgets - for office buildings, a major Canadian research project monitored the performance of existing buildings to verify a computer programme, which then provided a model for testing the effect on energy consumption of independent variables. The results showed that building height is far more important than size, and that shape and climatic location can be allowed for in relatively simple formulae. The knowledge thus gained, when applied to calculate the effect of better energysaving measures for the office blocks chosen, indicated potential savings of 44-50 per cent with little capital cost.
