Energy conservation strategy
Design Rationale

Typical office energy consumption

a fully air conditioned building


consumes 5 times as much energy as
a comparable non-AC office building

more than 60% of total building energy


consumption is for air condition and
lighting
Passive Design Strategies

 Minimize Cooling load


 maximize daylighting to reduce lighting load
 Maximize natural ventilation

Reduce operational cost

Design Strategy-2

Shading: Concepts
Block east and west direct
radiation  High Thermal mass:
capacitive insulation

Maximize opening on
south and north sides for
daylighting

Improve thermal comfort

Minimize energy for


lighting
Minimize cooling load
Design Strategy-2

High thermal mass 


Capacitive Insulation
Design Strategy-2

Shading: Self shading & reduce glare


Glare
Reduce glare
Design Strategy-3

Daylighting

Small units/spaces

Narrow span

Optimal daylighting
from two sides

Integrated
Lighting system
Design Strategy-3
Daylighting

Shading & lightshelves to enhance daylight


distribution and reduce glare
light shelves
Space layout: Current practices
Design Strategy-4
Cross Ventilation

Single Bank spaces

Optimal cross
ventilation with independent control
CFD simulation
Design Strategy-5
Vertical Circulation
Enclosed and connect
activities
Conserve Energy by
discouraging the use
of elevator
Design Strategy-5
Integrated circulation
system: an example
Design Strategy-6
AC Package System

Affordable
