Energy efficiency gains through modelling and site measurements for Nazarbayev University Technopark

The paper will present the strategies to minimise energy consumption of Technopark, which is a building located near the Main building of Nazarbayev University. It incorporates space for laboratories, offices and prototyping centre. Its annual energy consumption will be modelled using the software package BIM HVAC, based on the operation of building as well as taking into consideration of all the installed civil, mechanical and electrical systems. For the mechanical and electrical systems, equipment ratings and actual energy consumption will be collected and examined. The simulation data will then be compared with measured consumption. Various methods of energy minimisation, which will be mainly focused on modifying the operations of the system and, to a lesser extent physical modification of the system, will be modelled and suggested
