Energy Consumption Monitoring and Optimization—From the Utility Plant to the Laboratory
Michael Conway, ICETEC Energy Services
A comprehensive presentation of a sub-metering case study implemented at AstraZeneca R&D facilities outside Boston will provide insight into the development of the project including scope, justification and management approval. The presentation will also detail the value achieved by making data available to site staff such as utility plant operators and Site Energy Teams responsible for fume hood sash management. This overview will illustrate how the availability of real time and historical information is supporting AstraZeneca's goal of optimizing systems in order to reduce energy consumption and environmental footprint.
