Energy efficiency:tighter regulations,new incentivesToday’s challengesNew regulations now require energy-efficiencymeasures and more energy-efficient equipmentEnergy efficiency is no longer an option. The Kyoto Protocol has spurred governmentsworldwide to pass legislation to ensure smarter energy use in buildings.The European Union, for example, made a firm commitment in March 2007 to reduceCO 2emissions by 20% by 2020. Part of a package of measures known as “3x20 by 2020”,the reduction will come with a 20% improvement in energy efficiency and a shift in the EU’senergy mix to include 20% renewable energy.Other countries have adopted a slightly longer timeline and more ambitious targets,aiming for a 50% reduction in CO 2emissions by 2050.Reaching these targets will require real change, and governments are stepping up theirefforts to legislate, regulate, and set standards to improve energy efficiency.3 x 2020% reductionin CO 2emissions20% improvementin energy efficiency20% energy fromrenewable resourcesHigh-energy-yieldcontrol systemAdvanced control systemStandard control systemControl system does notgenerate energy savingsNew legislation, new rulesThe new trend toward tighter energy-efficiencylegislation started with the Kyoto Protocol.Laws like the US Energy Policy Act and theEuropean Union Energy Directive effectively setthe rules for our energy future.Public- and private-sector initiatives• EU standard EN 15232This standard is used to estimate the impact ofbuilding automation systems on active energyefficiency, stating potential savings on heatingand electricity according to the type of building.Class AClass BClass CClass D• White certificatesWhite certificates are granted for energyefficiencymeasures. Some governmentsrequire all electrical and gas utilities over acertain size to provide proof that they havehelped customers reach a particular level ofenergy savings. Utilities that meet minimumrequirements can then sell their surpluscertificates to other utilities.• LEEDLEED is a green building rating systemdeveloped by the US Green Building Council(USGBC). It provides a suite of standardsfor environmentally-sustainable buildingconstruction and renovation practices.Since its inception in 1998, LEED hasgrown to encompass over 50 US states and30 countries.Financial incentivesMany governments are using financialincentives or market mechanisms to encourageenergy efficiency. These include tax credits,interest-free government loans, partial sales taxexemptions on energy-efficiency equipmentand services, subsidized bank loans, andlocal grants from government agencies andorganizations in the private sector.The new regulations will have an impacton all buildingsAll buildings—both existing and new—and allenergy systems are concerned:> Lighting> Electrical distribution> Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning> Cooling systems67

A commitment to energy savingsAsk any building professional. So-called “passive” energy-efficiencymeasures like insulation or low-energy-consumption equipment are notenough to meet the challenges our energy future has in store.Today, it is a building’s net energy consumption that counts:the difference between energy consumed and energy produced.And, to ensure that the buildings of the future are net energy producers,we must reduce consumption and offset what we do use by producingenergy from renewable sources.We can help you achieve net-producer status, and generate substantialsavings by optimizing the 3 pillars of energy-efficiency:> Reduce consumption by implementing active energy-efficiencysolutions> Produce clean energy from renewable resources> Optimize consumption by using the latest technologiesWe can help you make savings!Energy audit& measureA more efficient,smarter, cleanerenergy futurePassive Energy EfficiencyFix the basicsLow consumption devices,insulation material,power factor correctionActive Energy EfficiencyOptimise throughautomation &regulationHVAC control,lighting control,variable speed drives…Monitor,maintain, improveMeters installation,monitoring services,EE analysis software89

HVAC ControlApplication: all buildingsRegulate temperatureby maintaining air pressureIt is difficult to make heating and airconditioning systems more energy efficientwithout affecting occupant comfort. The fact thatHVAC systems are often set up by floor furthercomplicates the situation. I need a flexible solutionthat can adapt to fluctuating occupancy whileusing only the amount of energy that is actuallyneeded.SolutionUse variable speed drives to regulateair pressure and temperatureTake a chilled-beam heating system, for example. The mostenergy-efficient solution for this type of heating system would beto add temperature regulation functions via a thermostat, pluspressure regulation in the beam and the room.The thermostat (T) (see diagram opposite) controls air flow byadjusting the shutters on the intake vent (1). The pressure in theheated beam (2) and the room (3) are kept at constant levels byvarying fan speed. The two ATV21 variable speed drives featurean integrated proportional regulation function that allows them tocontrol the fans directly based on information from the pressuresensors (P).The solution optimizes regulation regardless of fluctuatingoccupancy patterns. To fine tune energy consumption evenfurther using presence detectors, automatic blind controllers,and timers, a building management system would be required.In this type of setup, the variable speed drives and sensorswould be connected to the BMS via a communication bus.BenefitsFor the user> Save up to20% off yourenergy costs byusing independentvariable speed drives> Minimizemaintenance andfilter clogging> Quieter operation> Use up to 50%less energy byintegrating variablespeed drives intoyour buildingmanagement system(BMS)> Regulatetemperature withina limited range> Provide constantventilation> Add presencedetectors andautomationsystems to furtheroptimize the systemForprofessionals+ Design• Eliminates directstarts, so motor sizecan be decreased• Simplifies electricalarchitecture asall functions areintegrated into thevariable speed drive• Eliminates theneed for additionalanti-harmonics filters• Includes integratedcommunication bus+ Installation• Products arecompact in size• Optional featurescan be addedwithout increasingproduct size• Simple userinterface+ Maintenance• Local or remotetroubleshooting• Smootherstarting increasesthe lifespanof mechanicalcomponents andreduces frequencyof maintenanceMeasure Reduce energy consumption Reduce energy costsRoomP12The Altivar 21variable speeddrive is designedspecifically forbuilding systemsPT3• Low harmonics (THDI< 30%) thanks to C-lesstechnology (with reducedDC bus capacitors)• Optional versionswith integrated EMC(electromagneticcompatibility) filtersCircuitbreaker C60ContactorLC1DCircuit breakerCompact NSXATV21Variablespeed drive• Modbus standard on allmodels• LonWorks, Metasys N2,Apogee FLN, and BACnetavailable as options36 37
