Client: Group2 Architecture Interior Design
Consultant: Applied Energy Consulting
Overview:
The King’s University project involved the development of an NECB 2020 compliance energy model to ensure sustainable performance for a 3,350 m² campus addition. Applied Energy Consulting employed advanced modeling techniques and energy conservation strategies to optimize building efficiency.
Key Contributions:
- Comprehensive Energy Modeling:
o Conducted detailed room-by-room zoning for high-resolution energy simulations using EnergyPlus.
o Integrated advanced envelope design, high-efficiency lighting, and HVAC systems. - Energy Savings:
o Achieved a 25% reduction in total energy use intensity (EUI) compared to the NECB 2020 baseline.
o Optimized building systems to reduce thermal bridging and enhance insulation. - Innovative Features:
o High-performance glazing with superior thermal properties.
o Advanced heat recovery systems with 75% efficiency.
o LED lighting systems with automatic sensors exceeding NECB standards.
Outcome:
The proposed design demonstrated compliance with NECB 2020, achieving significant energy and operational cost savings while aligning with the university’s sustainability goals.
