Benchmarking
Energy Benchmarking is a major of focus within the LBNL high-tech buildings project. Benchmarking serves several important purposes:
- to establish a baseline for typical facility energy use
- to provide comparison to other similar facilities and/or similar systems highlight energy intensive systems and components
- to highlight areas of potential improvement
- to identify maintenance or operating problems
- to establish best practices for use in future designs
We have created a special site with self-benchmarking guides for high-tech buildings.
The following links provide benchmarking results from our own research for various high-tech facility types:
