 ENERGY SAVING PRODUCT OF THE YEAR
RECOGNISING OUTSTANDING PRODUCTS THAT WILL MAKE SIGNIFICANT
CONTRIBUTIONS TO IMPROVING BUILDING PERFORMANCE
WINNER:
TurboChill™ chiller with low GWP
refrigerant R1234ze (200-1360kW)
Airedale International Air Conditioning
With the increasing focus on low
or zero global warming potential
(GWP) refrigeration, Airedale
undertook detailed research in order
to create a chiller range incorporating
this technology. Working closely
with industry partners Honeywell
and Danfoss, resulted in the first
BSI-approved range of high-
performance chillers from a British
manufacturer. Tailored around the
low GWP HFO refrigerant R1234ze,
TurboChill™ offers a cost-effective
alternative to R134a.
Available in capacities of 200kW
to 1200kW (Air Cooled) and 200kW
to 1360kW (Free Cooled), the
TurboChill™ is suitable for a wide
range of critical, industrial and
commercial applications.
The range offers an ESEER
(European Seasonal Energy
Efficiency Ratio) up to 5.99 and
Class A EER (Energy Efficiency
Ratio) up to 4.12 (at 7/12ºC water
and 35ºC ambient), and delivers
industry-leading energy efficiency
per footprint available from a
centrifugal-based free-cooling chiller.
www.cibse.org/bpa
CIBSE winners brochure 2015_v10.indd 11
It provides up to twice as much
free-cooling as a thermosiphon free-
cooling system and can deliver free-
cooling for up to 95% of the year,
resulting in potential energy savings
of up to 50% compared with a
conventional design. In addition,
all models have been designed to
exceed the criteria established by
the Energy Technology List.
In addition, the TurboChill™
FreeCool design incorporates the
ability to supply fully concurrent
free-cooling, without break of
supply, during the transition
from mechanical cooling, unlike
equivalent thermosiphon designs.
Pioneered by Airedale over 15
years ago, concurrent free-cooling
increases energy efficiency by
reducing the need for mechanical
(DX) cooling and maximising the
part-load efficiencies of components

RECOGNISING THE IMPORTANCE OF INTEGRATED

AND AUTOMATED CONTROL SYSTEMS TO MANAGE AND
MAINTAIN OPTIMUM BUILDING PERFORMANCE

WINNER:
Barclays Operational Control Centre
(BOCC)
Barclays Bank
Barclays Engineering teamed up
with Smart Buildings to develop
a ‘software-as-a-service’ (SaAs)
application that interacts with
building equipment to give improved
central visibility of the systems in
Barclays’ property portfolio.

Smart Buildings developed and

designed an interface to connect
the existing four integration systems
using a standard protocol enabling
secure connectivity directly onto
the network. The result is a fully
interactive platform that can
translate information from a building,
enabling secure monitoring,
management and control of
equipment for an entire portfolio.

“A great deal of
thought has been
put into the design
and roll out.”
Building equipment such as boilers,
lights, thermostats and critical
plant can be accessed, managed
and maintained via an app on a
desktop, iPad or smartphone that
creates a virtual operational control
centre, accessible from anywhere.
This minimises resource time and
reduces maintenance costs and their
environmental impact, as well as
improving colleague and customer
comfort across the portfolio.
A trial saw an average of 9% energy
reduction across 12 branches,
with optimal savings of up to 23%
in some. Based on a conservative
estimate, the annual total saving from
the 12 branches will be 282,000
kWh, 127 tonnes of CO2 and
£28,000. The outcome of the trial
and lessons learned helped shape
the final design specification and
training for service engineers, and
a branch-wide roll out over 1,200
branches began in January 2014.
resource time saving is estimated 13
at 49%, with a reduction of

RECOGNISING THE IMPORTANCE OF LIGHTING
WITHIN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT AND ITS IMPACT ON
ENERGY CONSUMPTION
WINNER:
Cundall Birmingham
Cundall Light4
Cundall Light4 created a lighting
design solution for the new 700m2
office fit-out for Cundall’s Birmingham
office. Lighting director Andrew
Bissell wanted to create a scheme
that focused on the occupants, the
tasks they needed to undertake,
lighting control and adoption of the
latest lighting guidance.
The design brief focused on the
staff, their needs, the tasks they
undertake and where those occur.
Taking a selective approach to what
was lit, it provided a co-ordinated
design, adopting the latest
research and minimising energy
consumption, and recognised the
challenges posed by areas with less
exposure to sunlight. Controls have
been kept as simple and automated
as possible and the centralised plant
kept hidden.
The scheme delivers a low-
connected load of just over

In addition, while it is common for
landlords to oppose plans, or impose
penalties, for fitting out an office in
order to change the space back to
a spec office, Cundall Light4 was
able to demonstrate that the office
would remain a desirable, functional

WINNER:
Data Centre Risk and Energy Reduction
Programme and Data Centre Client
Requirements Workshops
Operational Intelligence / Entel Chile
The telecommunications
company, Entel Chile, undertook
a data centre risk and energy
reduction programme to identify
improvements to reduce energy
consumption, improve reliability
and reduce total cost of ownership.
Through a series of workshops,
facilitated by Operational
Intelligence, Entel Chile was able
to make improvements at existing
centres, enabling optimisation of
energy use and targeting of savings.
This collaborative way of working
with the operations teams gave
them a greater understanding of
how to improve reliability, resilience
and confidence. A similar approach
was used for new data centre
builds, with project stakeholders
participating in workshops to define
the design brief.
Many of the improvements, such
as modifying air management to
remove server inlet temperature

hot spots, had a positive impact
on reliability and reduced
energy consumption. The risk of
business disruption was taken
into account when identifying
potential improvements, prior to
implementation. Client buy-in
was also necessary, given that
the data centres host external
client equipment.

“The collaborative and
hands-on approach
to training was
commendable.”
CIBSE Building Performance Awards 2015
An important factor was the
involvement of staff from different
areas of the company; this helped
ensure that teams worked together
towards a common goal.
One of the programme highlights
was the assimilation of concepts of
efficiency and risk, not only by the
operations personnel and project
team but also IT stakeholders,
contract administrators and 19
vendors. As a result, participants
were equipped with knowledge
and tools that could be used
beyond the programme.
The risk and energy reduction
programme identified how to
reduce facility load in two sites
by 17%, saving $0.5m per year
in energy costs with a two-year
payback period.

THAT HAVE DELIVERED OUTSTANDING OUTCOMES
WINNER:
The team behind Broadcasting House,
London
AECOM
For over 15 years, AECOM has
collaborated with the BBC to help
transform its property portfolio
across the UK, working closely
with development partner Land
Securities, contractors Lend Lease
and Overbury, and architects
Sheppard Robson.
The award-winning transformation
of the BBC’s 80-year-old, Grade II
listed Broadcasting House site into
a high-tech, BREEAM Excellent
media hub is the largest and
most significant project the team
has worked together on to date.
Behind this complex development
is a pioneering partnership that
has resulted in the creation of one
of the world’s most advanced
and sustainable newsrooms and
studios. Opened by Her Majesty
the Queen in June 2013, it recently
picked up the British Council for
Offices National Innovation Award
and Regional Corporate Workplace
Award for London.
The drivers behind the project were
threefold: Broadcasting House
was no longer suitable in the digital
age, with failing broadcasting
infrastructure; the BBC was
looking to rationalise its sites; and
it needed to bring together all live
broadcasting units.
Ambitious sustainability targets
were embedded into the project
briefs as the team worked to bring
energy consumption down within
a high-demand environment. The

experience gained now informs
industry-wide guidance on
low-energy studio design, and
is expected to deliver savings of
£736m over 20 years.
The team met all the significant
challenges through their
collaborative approach, innovative
design and construction
technologies, creating a new,
flexible workplace for over 5,000
staff, which can respond to
future changes. Design
solutions were based on a full
understanding of the business
and changing practices.

First, the existing building was
improved through measures such
as internally lining walls and roofs
with thermal and acoustic insulation,
refurbishing windows and improving
building air tightness. Next,
efficiency savings were achieved
through measures including energy-
efficient lighting and controls, heat
recovery ventilation and condensing
gas-type supplementary boilers.
Finally, renewable energy measures
were introduced – in this case,
biomass heating and photovoltaic
panels. In addition, rainwater
recycling and water efficient
sanitary fittings were employed
to reduce consumption.
Since the completion of phase 1,
a 30% reduction in carbon
emissions has been achieved.
In terms of energy consumption,
the refurbished areas of the
school perform 17% better than a
typical primary school based
on ECON 73 benchmarks.
The project provided a test bed for

 REFURBISHMENT PROJECT OF THE YEAR (VALUE OVER £5M)
RECOGNISING A REFURBISHMENT PROJECT DEMONSTRATING
OUTSTANDING MEASURED BUILDING PERFORMANCE, ENERGY
EFFICIENCY AND REDUCED CARBON EMISSIONS
WINNER:
Premier House, Twickenham
Flatt Consulting
The refurbishment of Premier
House, a 1970s concrete/brick-
skinned office building, was one of
the first projects to be undertaken
by Low Carbon Workplace, a
collaboration between The Carbon
Trust, Threadneedle, and Stanhope.
The building was typical of its age
and type: existing services included
an inefficient, high-energy-usage,
high-carbon-emitting, VAV air-
conditioning system with split-
system DX cooling units.
Using existing mainstream
technologies, the refurbishment
set out to introduce low-carbon
design techniques and technologies
for internal climate environmental
control and ‘sustainable’ solutions,
to achieve a building with low
emissions and low water use. The
building fabric and structure were
generally retained, with principal
www.cibse.org/bpa
CIBSE winners brochure 2015_v10.indd 29
improvements consisting of
replacement windows, upgraded
insulation, provision of external
solar shading, exposing the building
thermal mass, provision of an active,
ventilated chilled-beam comfort
cooling and heating system, new
energy-efficient central plant and a
low-carbon lighting system.
A key aspect of the refurbishment
was the provision of facilities and
systems that allowed occupants to
take responsibility for and control of
their energy usage and emissions.
Extensive individual energy metering
was therefore provided to each
tenant for the various systems and
sub-systems. Tenants were also
required to sign the Low Carbon
Charter, indicating their firm intention
to minimise the building’s energy
consumption and emissions. The
Carbon Trust then worked with them
to develop their Cat B fit-out plans
and continues to provide ongoing
support to tenants, including monthly
reporting on carbon emissions.
This has enabled the identification
and realisation of opportunities to
improve performance.

 NEW BUILD PROJECT OF THE YEAR (VALUE UP TO £10M)
RECOGNISING A NEW BUILDING THAT DELIVERS OUTSTANDING
MEASURED BUILDING PERFORMANCE, ENERGY EFFICIENCY
AND REDUCED CARBON EMISSIONS
WINNER:
Stratford Library, University of East
London, London
AECOM
The University of East London’s
(UEL) BREEAM Excellent Stratford
Library is designed to operate 24
hours a day, seven days a week.
From the outset, UEL was clear
that it wanted the design to adopt
an exacting sustainability agenda,
to create an eco-friendly place to
work and study, and to enhance
student and staff experience. An
extremely low operational energy
target of 100kWh/m2 was set, in
line with Europe’s most efficient
buildings. Reaching this ambitious
target with a 24-7 building, with
low sporadic use at night, would
place the design beyond anything
previously achieved.
CIBSE winners brochure 2015_v10.indd 31
Early on, a benchmarking exercise
established the library’s energy
demands. AECOM’s project design
team included the co-authors of
industry-leading guidance on early
evaluation of operational energy
performance, CIBSE TM54, firmly
aligning the building’s design
with performance. The Stratford
Library far exceeds the minimum
air permeability requirements
under Part L 2010 of the Building
Regulations for England and Wales,
having achieved an ‘as-built’ air
permeability rate of 2.9m3/hr/m2
@50 Pa. Heat recovery systems
and outstanding insulation mean
that top-up heating is negligible. The
building is extremely well insulated
with a high-efficiency boiler providing
back up for longer, cold periods only.
Each energy-saving measure and
lower small power loads build
towards a reduction strategy far in
excess of benchmark equivalents
in the sector. Operational since July
2013, the design is hitting its energy
targets and exceeding the London

RECOGNISING A NEW BUILDING THAT DELIVERS OUTSTANDING
MEASURED BUILDING PERFORMANCE, ENERGY EFFICIENCY
AND REDUCED CARBON EMISSIONS
WINNER:
The Quadrant:MK, Milton Keynes
URS
The Quadrant:MK is the new
BREEAM Excellent, EPC A-rated
home of Network Rail. In revitalising
an underused brownfield site
in Milton Keynes and boosting
the local economy, the £106m
project has been a catalyst for
organisational transformation,
bringing 3,000 staff together in a
single location.
The project brief specified an
efficient, flexible and low-energy
workplace. It emphasised the
consideration of people and their
environment as its core philosophy,
alongside sustainability, efficient
processes and engagement.
In response, URS incorporated
sustainability into the very heart of
the building by using critical thinking
to create an inherently adaptable
and future-proof building.
The Quadrant:MK maximises the
use of passive design features such

as building orientation and fabric
performance, including low U-values
and brise soleils. Meanwhile, high-
performance glazing and shading
maximises daylight while controlling
heat gain, and year-round natural
ventilation is delivered through a
wind-driven solution.
Low-carbon heat and electricity
is sourced from the local CHP-
based district heating system,
providing a step change in the
carbon reduction as measured
through the energy performance
certificate from band B to A.
Overall, the 40,000m2 development
has a very low environmental
impact; energy consumption is
25% and water consumption
30% that of a standard, similar-
sized office building.
The intuitive nature of the building
services and a well-considered
handover process have ensured
that occupants are comfortable and
able to fine-tune their environment,
for instance by adjusting light levels
through the use of blinds and
the heating through thermostatic
radiator valves.

system, an automatic condenser
tube cleansing system, and
optimising operating hours for the
air-conditioning system. This has led
to an annual saving of 3.56 GWh
in 2013. Lighting operating hours
have been rescheduled, timers and
sensors have been implemented,
and the use of excessive lighting in
common areas has been reduced,
saving a further 1.63 GWh in 2013.
Lifts and escalators are closely
monitored, with users encouraged to
walk more, while water conservation
measures include an early-warning
water leakage detection device,
automatic toilet sensors, reduced
flow of faucets, reutilisation of
recycled bleed-off water and
condensed water and a rainwater
collection tank.
Key to this approach has been
regular staff training and local
legislation. Staff are encouraged to
investigate and advise on energy-
saving action plans, and 60 ‘green
ambassadors’ were also recruited.
In 2014, ICC was the only Gold
Sector Award recipient in the
property management category in

Overall, optimising building
operations has saved 6.42 GWh of
electricity and 4,494 tons of CO2
emissions in 2013 compared with
the previous year.

MONEY THROUGH ENERGY USE
WINNER:
M&G Real Estate Shopping Centre
Portfolio
M&G Real Estate
A top-25 global real estate fund
manager and one of the largest
property investment companies in
the UK, M&G Real Estate forms
part of the M&G Group, the asset
management arm of Prudential in
the UK and Europe.
Carbon emission reduction is a
key element of the company’s
responsible property investment
(RPI) strategy. This is driven by its
objectives to improve environmental
efficiency across its portfolio, to
ensure compliance with existing
environmental regulations and
prepare for the introduction of
Minimum Energy Performance
Regulations to reduce operational
costs, and to manage the risk of
obsolescence.
M&G Real Estate currently directly
manages 10 shopping centres, of
which eight have consistently been
managed by the M&G portfolio since
2010 and constitute a total net land
area of over 500,000m2. The total

consumption in the period April
2011 to March 2014 was 250 MWh;
one centre, Manchester Arndale,
accounted for over 65% of the total.
To achieve its aims, the company
first focused on ‘easy wins’ that
could be delivered through better
management and maintenance, and
ensured that adequate sub-metering
was in place, in order to provide
reliable data. Next, other short
lighting, were considered, followed
by ones requiring more investment,
such as improvements in chillers.
Other methods included changes to
equipment and operating hours, and
changing user behaviour.
Since implementation, M&G Real
Estate has achieved a 23% energy
reduction across all centres,
including a 24% reduction at
CIBSE Building Performance Awards 2015
Manchester Arndale, compared with
a baseline of 2010/11; this equates
to a total saving of 21,152 MWh
and £985,000.
In addition to these initiatives,
M&G Real Estate collaborated with
the British Property Federation to
develop an industry-wide standard
for green lease clauses that can be
incorporated into retail leases. It
also worked with CO2 Estates to
develop an energy assessment
and reporting methodology called 39
the Property Energy Performance
Report. This comprehensive report
provides an audit of a buildings’
energy consumption, identifying
areas of potential energy savings
and the methods of energy
management to be developed to
achieve future savings.
