Procedures for Commercial Building Energy Audits, Second Edition
Sample End-Use Breakdown Instructions :-
Use this template as a starting point for an end-use breakdown (end-use disaggregation).1).Estimate the energy consumption of end-use systems in the buildings and enter these estimates into the appropriate column in the table. Spaces for inputs are marked in blue text.
For a Level 1 analysis, these estimates may be based on expected equipment densities or estimates based on similar buildings.
For a Level 2 or Level 3 analysis, the end-use estimates for major end uses may be based upon one of the following:(listed from most accurate to least accurate)
Replace the inputs in blue text with data for your billing, including the end-use estimates, the building gross floor area (in units of your choosing), and the historical billing data totals for comparison. These inputs should be consistent with the historical energy use used as part of the Preliminary Energy-Use Analysis Template.
3).Replace the sheet titles with your own. Note project name, date, etc.
- Detailed measurements of end uses, measured over time
- Spot measurements of end uses, with estimated hours of operation with analysis to support annualization of the measured data
- Detailed calculations or hourly simulations of equipment performance based on manufacturers' specifications or design drawings.
- Assumptions of typical end-use densities.
Replace the inputs in blue text with data for your billing, including the end-use estimates, the building gross floor area (in units of your choosing), and the historical billing data totals for comparison. These inputs should be consistent with the historical energy use used as part of the Preliminary Energy-Use Analysis Template.
For example, if the template were used for a data center, you would want to include a separate line item for input power supplied to uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs). It is the auditor'sresponsibility to chose end-use categories that are meaningful for the building. These are listed for guidance as typical end-use categories.
