Metering? – Why do we need them: Legislation ADL2A – SECTION 1 paragraph 43 Reasonable provision for energy meters would be install energy metering systems that a enable at least 90% of the estimated annual energy consumption of each fuel to be assigned to the various end use systems like heating, lighting, LZC systems and independent uses In buildings with a total use of floor area greater than 1,000 sq.m automatic meter readings and data collection facilities to be included.
LEVEL 4 ENERGY ASSESSOR TRAINING Monitoring and Targeting? – Why do we need them: Legislation ADL2A – SECTION 1 paragraph 31 Achieving the TER – Certain management features offer improved energy efficiency in practise. Where these management features are provided in the actual building, the BER can be reduced by an amount of equal to (table 3) and the CO2 emissions for the system to which the feature is applied Example – 70kgCO2/ sq.m.year * 0.05 = 3.5 kgCO2 /sq.m.year reduction

What is Smart Metering: The means to record consumption data of utility services on an half hourly basis A smart meter is a new state of the art meter that can record, log and transmit metered data back to the Data Collector (DC) for Billing. Also through to an independent assessment centre can provide real time data. LEVEL 4 ENERGY ASSESSOR TRAINING

What Is aMR & aM&T : aMR – Automatic Meter Reading –The means to remotely communicate to a smart meter and retrieve recorded meter data using proprietary communication media. aM&T – Automatic Monitoring and Targeting –The ability to evaluate and set the energy profile requirement of a building and monitor actual consumed energy against the determined profile.

Why Do We Need To It? Kyoto Agreement –The Kyoto Agreement commits Britain to keep annual greenhouse emissions during the period 2008 to 2012 to 12% below 1990 levels. EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive 2003 –Article 7 requires the production of:– Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs or Asset Ratings) Display Energy Certificates (DEC) –Required for buildings with a total useful area of 1000sq.m occupied by public authorities, intuitions providing public services to a large number of persons and therefore frequently visited by these persons Building Regulation Part ADL2A & ADL2B LEVEL 4 ENERGY ASSESSOR TRAINING
What Will It Provide: Provision of half hourly data for each service utility Energy monitoring management of our buildings Automatic daily profiling of building energy requirements Removes the presentation of ‘estimated’ bills surrounding conventional billing service Offers our business reliable and accurate billing for consumed energy A means to monitor our carbon emissions against European Directive LEVEL 4 ENERGY ASSESSOR TRAINING
Benefits: Accurate and reliable bills based on actual meter readings Reduce electricity, gas and water usage and costs Greater purchasing flexibility through accurate procurement forecasting Proactive energy management, based on real time data Compliance with legislation on energy consumption management Provides a vehicle for reducing and managing CO² emissions via better analysis of accurate and timely data Provides the means to maintain a sustainable environment for our community through reduced carbon emissions LEVEL 4 ENERGY ASSESSOR TRAINING
