1 Energy Efficiency Flicking the Switch for the Green Economy Paul Boylan MSc BSc(Eng) Dip Eng NCEA Dip Eng CEng MIEI Director PBI Energy and Environmental Consultancy Services Green Business, IBEC & BIM Energy Management Seminars
2 My Vision To promote sustainability and assist organisations with their transition to and participation in, the Green Economy! Sustainable development meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Source: World Commission on Environment and Development s (the Brundtland Commission). Found in all aspects of society including economics, the environment, social issues, construction, growth, poverty and many other elements. My areas of focus Carbon Management. LCA Environmental Strategy, Awareness and Engagement / CSR Peer Review, Self Assessment, M&V, Feasibility Studies. Green Technology and Renewable Energy concepts.. Systems Optimisation, Spatial Solutions. Energy Management & Energy Efficiency
3 Setting the Scene
4 Consumption Global energy consumption has risen enormously due to population growth and an increasing energy use per person. Global primary energy consumption was 504 EJ (exajoules) in Forecast to rise to 690 EJ by 2030 and, 1740 EJ by the end of this century. Source: Moriarty and Honnery, (2012). World commercial oil equivalent energy use in billion of tonne of (Bntoe). Source: BP Energy Outlook (2011).
5 Energy Security / Security of Services How long will the reserves last? In 1973 the OPEC states cut back on oil production. This led to queues at the petrol stations, a drastic rise in oil prices, market disruption and recession! Estimated availability of oil and gas are 43 and 64 years, respectively. Risks? Availability in years of know energy reserves based on current production. Source: Quaschning Renewable Energy and Climate Change (2009).
6 The Energy Mix Primary Fuel Mix for Electricity Generation Reflection Point! We consume a lot of natural gas in Ireland. Of which, over 85% is imported. 63% of imported gas is used for electricity generation. In 2012, 49% of Irelands electricity was generated using Natural Gas. Source: SEAI Energy in Ireland Key Statistics (2013). Do you think this effects you?
7 Climate Change Global warming The debate is over. The devastating impacts of anthropogenic global warming and the need to reduce GHGs emissions have fuelled a global interest in replacing fossil fuels with green solutions as quickly as possible. Globally, the Energy supply, industry and transport sectors contribute > 58% of all GHG emissions. Atmospheric CO 2 concentrations have risen from ~280 to >380 ppmv since the industrial revolution.
8 THIS IS NOT SUSTAINABLE?
9 What is being done locally An Ireland Perspective Renewables and Emissions The emphasis on wind power may help achieve the renewable and reduced emission targets. Energy Efficiency *Irelands EE target is 20% for the private sector and 33% for the public sector. CO 2 per kwh & Efficiency of Electrical Supply This remains a challenge with electrical supply efficiency falling from 47% in 2011 to 45.8% in The DCENR will be readdressing energy efficiency in the revised Energy Efficiency Directive. Source: SEAI Energy in Ireland Key Statistics (2013). Likely outcomes; Increased energy Benchmarking and Accreditation. Obligated parties to support further energy efficiency initiatives. LIEN members/smes (>250) encouraged to participate in energy saving initiatives. SEAI will likely promote EPCs pertaining to energy efficiency.
10 Energy Efficiency and the Green Economy! The Green Economy A green economy should be low carbon, resource efficient and socially inclusive. (UNEP) The Triple Bottom line. Synonymous with Sustainable Development and the Green Economy. Energy Efficiency is a major component It reduces Environmental Impact. It promotes Economic growth! It supports better social circumstances, creating and protecting employment.
11 What s driving Energy Efficiency? 1. Urgent need to reduce GHG emissions (which are projected to increase 46 % by 2040). Limiting climate change will require substantial and sustained reductions of GHG emissions. 2. The need to sustain economic growth. *GDP is forecasted to grow by up to 56% between 2010 and The need to reduce reliance on fossil fuels while we make the transition to renewable energies. Renewable energy and nuclear power is increasing however, fossil fuels are likely to supply almost 80% of world energy use through till The need to avoid exceeding available capacity. 5. Maintain competitiveness and resilience (locally, nationally, globally). 6. Safeguard jobs and pave the way forward for sustainable development.
12 Summarising Energy Efficiency? Energy conservation/efficiency Refers to efforts made to reduce energy consumption by technological changes (i.e. more efficient lighting, heating, transportation) non-technical factors such as better management, and behavioural changes. Source: WEC, Improving energy efficiency offers an effective alternative to reduce GHG emissions. a real opportunity to save energy. a platform to cut your costs. Do you think you can benefit?
13 My Experiences
14 Sustainability through Energy Management Knowing your consumption profile is key for optimised energy efficiency!! Sample practices include; 1. Sustainable engineering design/review. 2. The deployment of smart grid and smart technologies. 3. Lighting Solutions. Relamps New Diffusers 4. HVAC solutions. Air changes, Filters, Fix drive fans 5. Distribution system optimisation. Rebalance LPHW and CHW circuits. VSD (Inverter Drives) 6. Load Matching / System downsizing. UPS 7. Utilise energy efficiency tools/controls to promote demand side management. 8. Energy procurement (Supply Side) consider energy quality and sources 9. Energy/Environmental consultancy, audits and performance analysis. 10. Exploit CHP to optimum potential.
15 EpiSensor Wireless Energy Monitoring System 25% SEAI Grant Support A well established phrase - If you can t measure it, you can t manage it. We installed our Wireless monitoring system in 2010 Whilst not necessarily better than a wired solution it does offer Flexibility in design and application. Competitive solution. System integrity/connectivity improves as system expands. Enabled Live review on Energy Activity. Benchmarking and energy efficiency saves ~ 35K in year 1. Test bedding of new ECMs Creates a platform for Further floor by floor optimisation saves. Help predict potential risks/stress points. Contributes to ISO50001.
16 Data Centre CRAC conversion 25% SEAI Grant Support Replace oversized Data center FCUs with CRAC units with poor Hot-Aisle/Cold Aisle distribution. Reduced Chiller operation. Offset requirement for dedicated chiller (which was nearing end of life). CRAC units strategically located to deliver efficient cooling. CRAC predominantly free cooling eliminating 200KWs for 60% of the year Reduced maintenance Turnkey solution. Hot Cold Hot Cold Hot Cold Hot Return on Investment (including CoF). Payback 15 months. Reflection Funding is always a challenge. Cold Hot Cold Cold Hot Cold Cold Perhaps view the investment from a P&L perspective as opposed to a Return on Investment
17 Innovative approaches previously implemented In addition to specific engineering elements, I implemented the following; 1. Waste and Water management. 2. Benchmarking exercises inside and out! 3. Space optimisation. Consolidate/Rationalise data centres. Flexible Office Space solutions. 4. Increased focus on green procurement and Sustainable Project Management. Cradle to Cradle life cycle analysis. 5. Load analysis and management. 6. Repeated Self Assessment Emphasis always remained on continuous improvement!
18 Load analysis and management. Conducting Load analysis. Review the logical introduction of services. Regression analysis. Review Maximum Import Capacity. Standardise consumption. Reduce fringe waste.
19 Repeated Self Assessment
20 Energy/Environmental Awareness My mission was simply to embed Sustainability in the behavioural context as BAU. Think outside the box. 1. Energy awareness campaigns, Expos and tours. 2. Engagement with SEAI, EPA and An Taisce 3. Reporting internally and at corporate level. 4. Shared Knowledge/Communication. 5. Green Team participation. 6. Setting SMART targets (Specific Measurable Achievable Results focused and Timely) 7. Pursue ISO 9001/14001/5001 accreditation.
