CASTLE GRAND CAR PARK EXHAUST UPGRADE
77 tonnes of CO2 emissions averted p.a.
90% reduction in energy consumption
20% offset of total project costs
Project Overview
Castle Grand is a multipurpose commercial & residential complex in Castle Hill owned and maintained by The Hills Shire Council. The complex includes a library, residential apartments and multiple facilities for use by the community.
The Council upgraded the carpark exhaust fans with variable speed drives and carbon monoxide sensors while also installing a new building management system to service the complex. Energy Conservation provided easy-to-understand technical advice on all the variables needed for measurement both before and after the upgrade, and conducted all the associated data analysis. Our support and expertise in Measurement and Verification allowed the savings to be measured to an internationally recognised standard without any additional metering costs. At project completion, EC had verified a 90% reduction in energy consumption by the carpark exhaust system and offset 20% of the total cost of the upgrade with the Energy Savings Certificates generated.
