Good practices in the use of ICT equipment for electricity savings at a university campus |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
The commercial sector is responsible in a large degree for the overall energy consumption around the world and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) constitute an important category of electricity loads which is becoming dominant in offices. Recognizing the importance of using ICT equipment more rationally for saving energy in commercial buildings, we have performed an energy audit of ICT loads at the School of Design and Environment, National University of Singapore, using smart power outlets. After a six-month period through which we have measured and analyzed the consumption of the most representative ICT devices available at the school, we have identified various good practices in the use of office equipment, in order to reduce the total electricity footprint of the building. Most of our practices can be generalized for offices and commercial buildings. |
