Eneon’s offer is also dedicated to educational sector: Kindergardens, Nurseries, Schools, Public and Private Universities, Libraries and other Learning Centers.

Energy efficiency optimization in accordance to customer’s energy profile refers to:

• Quantity perspective- decrease of energy consumption understood as a percentage stake in clients` energetic profile.
• Value perspective- reduction in value(material) share in energy budget thanks to usage of balancing and adjusting load techniques within energy cycle.

The process of energy use improvement must follow all Client’s expectations with maximum quality and leverage international standards&practices depending on sector and its’ characteristic.

Please find simulation of Energy Profile for Your Company below prepared by Eneon showing the trends and areas where the biggest and the most effective energy effciency potential can be generated:

Optimization Domain: HVAC Systems (Heating, Ventilation, Air-Conditioning)

HVAC Systems usually operate based on infrastructure, which transform electrical energy to thermal one. Additionally HVAC infrastructure features cover distribution function to transport heat, water, steam or cooled air within the building rooms. Moreover the mentioned infrastructure interacts with the external environment e.g. assuring the circulation of the fresh air to the facility.

Eneon delivers optimization in the following HVAC Systems functions:

• Production Function. Energy efficiency generated is the result of HVAC parameters calibration in terms of needs and requirements of legacy energetic infrastructure. The second point is retrofit of ineffective expensive infrastructure (very commonly already depreciated and generating high MRO costs) or its single components (e.g. heat exchangers, enthalpy wheels, boilers, ventilators) to kill costs. The third aspect is reduction of heating/refrigerating cycles to go down with energy use with close to zero impact on facility’s day by day lifecycle
• Distribution Function. Energy savings delivered by improvement of energy transport methods thanks to HVAC infrastructure redesign (infrastructure pipes, pumps, wind mills ). As the parts of HVAC infrastructure are being power supplied the savings generated for this part is the ratio improvement between energy consumption quantity to available HVAC outflow/capacity.The next crucial aspect is decreasing energy losses during the transport process that influence significantly on productivity of HVAC systems. These two issues are major drivers for upgrade recommendations and deployment of new infrastructure provided by Eneon, especially retrofit of outdated, costly, redundant and incoherent elements that influence in significant way on effectiveness and stability of HVAC system.

Optimization Domain: Lighting

Lighting is one of the main contributors of energy consumption breakdown. Energy is being saved and demand reduced in this area through implementation of personalized controlled lighting strategy that includes automation, individual parameterization of environmental variables, active compensation of artificial lighting, standardization and unification of lighting characteristic and productivity ratio improvement (e.g. number of luxes).Reducing lighting area impacts indirectly HVAC infrastructure needed load decrease e.g. industrial cooling. We have to remember that lighting optimization makes lower heating power supplied to the building, but also taking into account that lighting is rather costly method of heating ;) so this trade-off is always profitable. If we plan to upgrade the cooling system for more efficient one, the lighting retrofit might influence on lowering requirements towards capacity of new cooling system – which obviously leads to cost cutting of new investment and mitigation the risk of overscalling. Even it might occur that all the optimizations made external to the cooling systems makes the plans of replacement not needed. Given this example, it is important underlining the connection between all systems installed in the building being the network of interdependent elements. So the sequence of their replacement/optimization is a clue which requires facility’s big picture strategy.

Lighting models offered by Eneon not only generate savings potential but also support learning/education process. Lighting function important role in education process is no longer underestimated when deploying lighting infrastructure. Light active compensation model we introduce in our solutions plays key factor in so called learning mood creation and weighs on educational facility attractiveness. Simply people just learn more easily under natural sunlight. Additionally, as it was proven by the number of researches and analysis when pthinking of lighting for schools etc. you cannot miss the impact of light characteristic features (e.g. color, CRI index) on students' performance, motivation, learning comfort, speed and results- it could be win-win transaction: energy savings and improvement of learning process at one time.

Optimization Domain: Non-Core Processes

Significant amount of energy is being needlessly wasted due to impropriate management and building exploitation processes. The amount of thermal energy delivered or set loose from the building in order to keep comfort and satisfaction of end users is directly proportionally correlated to the difference between temperature and humidity outside.
To deal with this issue there might be a need to parameterize variables of heating systems, air conditioning or limit the parameters of random systems for specific buildings areas. This should happen under zero impact or at acceptable level on the employees/customers.
When the building is empty the non-core operational processes have to be blanked out to the essential minimum only keeping core ones for business continuity only and security standards maintaining at the same time.

Energy Profile&Curve preparation for our customers referring to their specific activities, environment and line of business, based on reliable sample of data guarantees accurate description of energy optimization potential in their energy infrastructure.
Although the opportunities described above are the most profitable in this business segment only case by case approach&analysis allows to leverage maximum potential of your current energy status.
