Energy Consumption by Office and Telecommunications Equipment in Commercial Buildings. Volume 1. Energy Consumption Baseline.

摘要

ADL carried out a 'botton-up' study to quantify the annual electricity consumption (AEC) or more than thirty (30) types of non-residential office and telecommunications equipments. The Office of Building Technology, State and Community Programs at the U.S. Department of Energy commissioned the study to develop technically-detailed and carefully laid out AEC estimates for the major equipment types to assist in the planning of future research and development, deployment and standards programs. Pror studies did not completely fulfill the Department's needs for energy consumption data and identification of key trends. A preliminary AEC estimate for all equipment types identified eight key equipment categories that received significantly more detailed studied and accounted for almost 90% of the total preliminary AEC.
