“…A process that can be used to determine the percentage of energy efficiency and save energy, energy targeting, is possible from energy audit results. Energy planning is the process of making decisions regarding energy saving in the preliminary stage, including support for energy policies, organisational structure, and implementation [27].…”

Green buildings refer to buildings that decrease adverse environmental effects and maintain natural resources. They can diminish energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, the usage of non-renewable materials, water consumption, and waste generation while improving occupants’ health and well-being. As such, several rating tools and benchmarks have been developed worldwide to assess green building performance (GBP), including the Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) in the United Kingdom, German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB), Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) in the United States and Canada, Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency (CASBEE) in Japan, Green Star in Australia, Green Mark in Singapore, and Green Building Index in Malaysia. Energy management (EM) during building operation could also improve GBP. One of the best approaches to evaluating the impact of EM on GBP is by using structural equation modelling (SEM). SEM is a commanding statistical method to model testing. One of the most used SEM variance-based approaches is partial least squares (PLS), which can be implemented in the SmartPLS application. PLS-SEM uses path coefficients to determine the strength and significance of the hypothesised relationships between the latent constructs.

“…The result from the application of shifting method showed a significant number of energy saving that can be made. Ahmad Sukri Ahmad et al [2], this paper presents the energy management program carried out at faculty of electrical engineering UTM. Various energy saving activities were initiated since 2010 and the EEI is used as an indicator of building's energy consumption performance during the energy management programme.…”

In this paper, performance analysis has done to save energy consumption in between ACCH & WCCH at Godrej BKC Kurla (West) in Maharashtra. There are both ACCH & WCCH of 400TR (506KW) & 600TR (360KW) capacity respectively. Firstly, both chillers (ACCH & WCCH) theoretically Ikw has calculated and then same has cross checked at different loads during running condition, found both ACCH & WCCH'S Ikw is near about the theoretical value. Now, based on Ikw both ACCH & WCCH'S (excluding pumps & CT-fans) 15min electrical consumption theoretically calculated & then same was cross checked with the help of energy metre reading, found all the experimental values are near about to theoretical values. On the basis of these experiments, an empirical relation has been developed that shows the performance of both chillers as well as its cost effectivity. ACCH is the best to run till 100TR, beyond it there is a loss of 6units/hr (per 10TR) to run ACCH & minimum Rs.4,48,750 p.a. can be saved by running WCCH. If WCCH is run at 400TR (i.e. at ACCH's full load) then around 72576 units can be saved yearly & in terms of cost Rs. 9,65,268 p.a. can be saved.

“…International Energy Outlook report on the current position of the global energy consumption reveals that energy demand will continue to grow by 56% in-between the year 2010 and 2040 [2]. Malaysia as a developing nation also experience increase in national energy demand to propel her economic growth [3,4]. Based on the statistical record released by Malaysia Energy Commission [5], 94% of generated electricity by the country is derive from the fossil fuels.…”

The present study aims to provide insight on energy profiling of a residential college in public university. The study involves electrical energy monitoring for six months from the month of March until August 2017. The data utilized to derive the average monthly consumption for both semester period and semester break. The consumption during semester break has been recorded to increase as much as 88% from the consumption during the semester break. The building energy index of the residential college has been recorded to be at 22.90 kWh/m2/year meanwhile the energy intensity was recorded to be at 1,932.08 kWh/occupant/year.
