This study examines the use of energy-saving technologies to reduce energy consumption and peak demand in office buildings. The potential electrical energy savings of various technologies have been examined for three types of office buildings. 1. An existing building with design features typical of buildings constructed in the 1960s. 2. A new building with a variable air volume (VAV) HVAC system. 3. A new building with a fan coil HVAC system. Four major objectives were pursued: 1. characterize the electric energy use of new and existing office buildings, 2. identify energy-saving technologies that are appropriate to these buildings, 3. quantify the potential for savings in electrical energy consumption, peak demand and total energy cost and 4. recommend further action to promote the goals of the Swedish national energy policy. The results show large potential savings for some of the lighting, HVAC and glazing technologies. (author).
