Targets / Objectives
• To reduce absolute Carbon Emissions due to energy use in buildings (including
processes contained in buildings) by 17% by 2020 from 2012 baseline
• To control energy consumption - consumption may increase due to “activity”
• To manage cost - not a promise to reduce cost

Facilities Management
FM controls:
• Energy cost (procurement of energy is often in FM budget)
• Majority of energy consumption
• Most of savings opportunities
• Energy Audits
• Facilities managers need to be part of the Energy Management programme
• Outsourcing can bring conflict of interest – cheapest install vs. most efficient

Infrastructure Upgrades
Minor Works
• Standardised PERFORMANCE specifications
• Lighting, Split A/C systems, ASHP, Boilers
• Whole life costed….not cheapest installation
Capital Works
• PERFORMANCE specifications based on current best practice
• CIBSE Guidelines
• CHP, BMS and New Construction projects
• Whole life costed ….not cheapest initial cost
