3 Cutting Costs & Engaging Visitors Rowan Wallis Sustainable Business Partnership CIC

4 Monitor

5 Monitoring spreadsheet

6 Unusually high usage

7 Correlating with boiler break down - electric heaters used instead

8 There is only a small increase in consumption during the day when the building is in use. Why is so much electricity used overnight?

9 Negotiate Highest rate paid by a museum in the project >> p/kwh plus a standing charge of p/day

10 Tariff calculator

11 Day p/kwh Night p/kwh Standing charge - 80 p/day But is a day / night tariff most suitable? Very little electricity is used at night.

12 Identify Through high bills

13 and by examining your site.

15 Quick wins

39 Peter Pusey General manager Dinosaur Isle Energy, Water and Waste Efficiency Project SHARE

40 The building opened in August 2001

41 Energy, electricity, gas and water, On a scale of A G the energy rating of this brand new building was F!. We have no gas despite the gas main being in the road less than 20 meters away. We have a massive air conditioning and heating unit in a dedicated plant room with banks of direct heaters. Our water meter remained lost in the shrubbery for a year as I refused to pay an estimated bill.

42 Operation In 2008 my budget for electricity was almost 30,000 and after wages and business rates it was our 3 rd highest cost. In 2008 we were offered a voltage optimisation unit the cost was 5,000 however if it failed to save us that there would be no charge.

43 Voltage optimisation unit installed Whether it has made a difference I m not sure, but it got us thinking and as you can see from the following graph., was the prelude to a massive drop in our consumption.

44 Annual kwh Dinosaur Isle energy consumption 300, , , , ,000 50, Year

45 However correlation does not imply causation. We began to think about on our energy use. The duty manager was responsible to see everything was turned off at night. The staff and even the contract cleaners bought into the process. As money became available we installed pir s etc. We changed the taps to battery powered spray taps. We regularly adjusted our time controls And we made many small but iterative changes as disconnecting the light in the lift, and under the recon

46 The savings today I estimate with the increase in electricity costs since 2008 our annual bill would be at least 35,750. As this financial year closes our electricity bill will be less than 10,000. That is a saving of 25,750 or a full time post. We had no over riding strategy, just an ambition to reduce our running costs spending money this year to reduce our running costs next year.

47 Just installed is a Smart meter

48 Cubic meters Water has had it ups and downs! Dinosaur Isle Water useage/day averaged out from a monthly reading Watering bedding plants Water leaks First reading was December 2005 and then monthly since then peaks are in August

49 Not forgetting Rubbish separation and recycling Card board White paper Shredded paper Compost Removed litter bin from car park and more to do Energy efficient lights in shop and galleries. Greater use of air source heat pumps in main gallery, shop and education room Improve air tightness of building Solar thermal hot water Photovoltaic solar panels on roof

50 Is our biggest impact the transport of our visitors? 350 space car park Just 4 bicycle hoops 87% visitors arrive by car

51 Thank you, and any questions?
