Variable speed drives for water pressure pumps Solar water heating for kitchen and central amenities Water efficient WC’s Water efficient urinals, basins, showers and sinks Rainwater harvesting Fire test water reuse ESD Initiatives ESD initiatives considered are items that have been incorporated in to the current design. A summary of the initiatives can be found under section 2.0. Energy and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Energy-efficient Lamps ESD Initiative Type Carbon Emission (CO2-e ) Saving Energy Up to 28% of retail artificial light emissions Low-energy, high-output T5 fluorescent lamps have been specified for the building. These lamps offer a 25-28% energy/emission reduction in lighting power consumption when compared to incandescent lamps. Photo-electric indoor lighting control with ON/OFF control ESD Initiative Type Carbon Emission (CO2-e ) Saving Energy Up to 33% of retail area artificial lighting emissions As natural lighting is promoted throughout the building through the installation of skylights, energy savings will be achieved through the installation of daylight sensors within the retail space. These sensors will shut off one third of all lights when the ambient light levels in the space are adequate and therefore can offer up to 33% saving when daylight is sufficient. To accurately measure the total energy/emissions savings for this initiative a daylight model of the building would need to be created to simulate the total hours per year when sufficient natural day light penetrates through the skylights to disable the artificial lighting system. As a result the estimated emission savings has not been measured.
