Case Study of Continuous Commissioning in an Office Building

The case study building is a two-story office facility with total floor area of 31000 square feet, of which most is open space office. The HVAC system operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. An energy audit was conducted to evaluate the building's energy performance and identify potential cost-effective energy saving opportunities. Specific Continuous Commissioning measures were implemented in the building. Indoor comfort was improved and the energy report shows a reduction in electricity consumption by 33.2% and gas consumption by 51.2%. This paper introduces the Continuous Commissioning process and presents detailed information on the Continuous Commissioning implementation in the case study building
