Energy consumption in buildings varies considerably depending on type and usage. However, monitoring and regulation of electrical power consumption due to user-related activities are not presently embedded in current English Building Regulations. These energy uses include lifts, server rooms, and small power loads, and are collectively referred to as unregulated energy usage. As part of a larger study of unregulated energy usage in university campus buildings, this paper describes the development and demonstration of a methodology for quantifying unregulated power usage using Building Energy Management System data for a case study university. The methodology was applied to four different buildings. This approach was applied to a Chemical Laboratory, a Physical Science Laboratory, a Library and an Administration Office. The results obtained revealed that electrical consumption was consistently much higher than traditional benchmarks suggest as being normal, particularly within the laboratories. Additionally, within the specific unregulated electricity case study, four rooms in the Physical Science Laboratory indicated very high unregulated electricity usage figures, averaging at 89 kWhm−2 per annum across just four rooms. Practical application: Unregulated energy research, within the Higher Education Sector, is undeveloped. Previous literature focuses on specific areas of unregulated energy, such as equipment usage. However, analysis based on different room types has not been completed on a wider scale. Hence, there is a gap in the current research. This research shows analysis of unregulated energy in different university buildings. It develops a methodology to further understanding on this undeveloped area. Additionally, it advises that unregulated energy must be calculated during a building’s design stage. By using a selection of case studies, this research furthers understanding on the overall effects of unregulated energy.

评估案例研究型大学的非常规用电量

建筑物中的能源消耗因类型和用途而异。但是,当前与英语相关的建筑法规中并未包含对与用户相关的活动造成的电力消耗进行监视和监管的内容。这些能源使用包括电梯,服务器机房和小功率负载,统称为未管制能源使用。作为对大学校园建筑中非管制能耗的更大规模研究的一部分,本文描述了案例研究大学使用建筑能耗管理系统数据量化非管制用电量的方法的开发和演示。该方法被应用于四个不同的建筑物。该方法已应用于化学实验室,物理科学实验室,图书馆和行政办公室。获得的结果表明,耗电量始终比传统基准所建议的正常水平高得多,尤其是在实验室内。另外,在特定的非管制用电案例研究中,物理科学实验室的四个房间显示出很高的非管制用电量数据,仅四个房间的平均年使用量为89 kWhm-2。实际应用:高等教育领域内不受监管的能源研究尚未开发。以前的文献集中在未管制能源的特定领域,例如设备使用。但是,基于不同房间类型的分析尚未在更大范围内完成。因此,当前的研究存在差距。这项研究显示了对不同大学建筑中不受管制的能源的分析。它开发了一种方法来进一步了解这个未开发的领域。另外,它建议必须在建筑物的设计阶段计算未调节的能量。通过选择案例研究,本研究进一步了解了不受监管的能源的总体影响。
