Building energy analysis for nine typical buildings

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6554997
Building design for energy conservation can make an important contribution to reducing energy consumption. Saving energy in new buildings involves not only careful design prior to construction and routine maintenance of equipment during operation, but also formulating new public policies, codes and standards for building design. Recognizing this, the State of California Energy Resources and Development Commission (CERCDC) retained Consultants Computation Bureau (CCB) to conduct a building energy analysis in order to develop State Standards for new non-residential buildings. For the analysis CCB employed the computer program Cal-ERDA. The buildings analyzed included small offices, small retail stores, warehouses, supermarkets, restaurants, public assembly, large office, and large retail stores. (TFD)
