1 Green Building Council of Namibia Convention 2015 By Glenn Howard Presented by Carina Muller

2 What is the status of building energy consumption? How much could we save?

3 Existing Building Performance Rating Tool Energy category points = 27% of rating: Energy reduction related to GHG emissions (25 points) Peak electricity demand reduction (2 points)

4 Benchmarking is the process of comparing your energy performance to something similar, eg your own performance during a previous period similar buildings standards for buildings

5 So how does Namibia fare with building energy use? Source information: NEEP our own research and projects SANS 204

6 NEEP: Namibia Energy Efficiency Programme (in buildings) NEEP was funded by the UNDP, GEF, MME project managed by Namibia Energy Institute

7 More than 52 buildings sampled from Windhoek, Keetmanshoop, Oshakati/Ongwedivaand Walvis/Swakop Building occupancies per SANS F1 G1 H1 Large Shops (including shopping malls) Offices Hotels Data sampled: Billing records, floor area, occupancy, other energy (LPG, diesel, paraffin) & interviews

8 Large shops split into Supermarket & Warehouse Office buildings split between Public & Private Energy & demand benchmark per SANS 204 Energy: kwh/m²/annum (including other energy sources) Demand: VA/m² (averaged)

9 Average annual energy consumption per locality

11 Average demand benchmark per locality

12

13 N$2.2M/annum N$530k/annum N$3.0M/annum

14 Perception of own building EE (2012) 77% believe they are normal or highly efficient 83% will be happy with up to 20% savings 36% prepared to pay higher rent for energy efficiency 44% prepared to pay higher rent for a green building

15 When? New building get it right first time GREEN STAR SA New Building Existing building any time or at trigger Existing building any time or at trigger points: sale of the property change in the lease replacement of equipment refinancing, remodelling, renovation or rehabilitation GREEN STAR EBP V1 is useful to benchmark or improve performance

16 Systematic assessment of energy use: Sources of energy Where it is used Variance between input and usage Effectiveness and efficiency

17 Objectives of Energy Audit a) Identify energy saving opportunities. b) Propose remedial measures aimed at reducing energy consumption. Energy savings are usually only of interest to commercial entities if there is a return on investment.

18 a) A walk-through audit aimed at familiarising the survey team with the facility. b) Detailed site data gathering of all appliances to obtain a load inventory. c) Collection and analysis of electricity supply authority billing data. d) Logging of main electrical supply loads. e) Gathering of any information related to other energy sources. f) Analysis of the load inventory to identify load contribution and reconciling with the billing data and logged information. g) Consideration and analysis of energy efficiency opportunities

19 Energy source (electrical, gas, diesel, paraffin, solar, wood) Air conditioning (HVAC) and refrigeration Lighting Efficiency (luminaire and lamp) Control Daylight Illumination levels Water heating Appliances Industrial engineering Energy rating (TCO LCC) Elevators & escalators Computer energy saving modes Power factor correction Renewable energy MAINTENANCE (Scheduled maintenance) Etc.
