The Durban Platform :

A working group will be formed in 2012 to develop a Roadmap for

developing a final agreement on combating climate change

- The agreement must be made by 2015

- Implementation starts by 2020

The European Union has committed to implementation

of a new Kyoto Agreement starting by January 2013

( US, Russia, Canada and Japan will not participate ! )

A Green Climate Fund to assist 3rd world countries to combat climate change

will be formed. Denmark, Norway and Germany has already committed to contribute.

Science : the CO2 emission curve has to break by 2015 for the 2oC target to be met

US and China is responsible for 40% of the worlds greenhouse gas emissions

The BSEEP Demonstration Program on Energy Efficient Buildings

Proof of Concept

Proof of Technical Feasibility

Proof of Economical Feasibility

The objective with the BESEEP demonstration program is to

demonstrate that significant energy savings can be achieved with

projects that are technically and economically feasible

Design Feasibility : Buildings can be designed so that energy consumption is

reduced and indoor comfort is improved using appropriate design features in the

façade and the roof, and using appropriate building materials in the façade and

the roof. All necessary building materials are available locally, and most are

locally produced.

Technical feasibility : The M&E systems of the building can be designed

and appropriate components can be selected to achieve significant

savings on energy consumption and significant improvements on indoor

comfort in the building. All necessary components and systems are

available locally, and some are locally produced.

Reduction of Energy Consumption in Offices Where can the savings be achieved? Opportunities Obstacles

Plug Loads Save 30 – 50 %

Using EE computers Lack of awareness on the magnitude of IT power consumption.

Lighting Use daylight and solar control glazing

50 – 90 % reduction ( EE fixtures and daylight use )

Expensive glazing. Lack of knowledge on daylight design in the tropics ( heat and glare ).

Cooling Save 50 – 80 %

Reducing the load, Improve efficiency ( COP ) of chiller

Lack of knowledge on chiller sizing. Lack of knowledge regarding what the heat loads are.

Fan Energy 50 – 80 % reduction Lack of awareness on low pressure duct design and efficient fan design management.

Economic feasibility : The extra costs for achieving a low carbon

footprint are low compared to the savings on energy consumption. The

economic payback period will be in the range of 5 – 10 years, based on

today’s low subsidized electricity prices. At world market energy costs,

for the Government, the payback period is 3 – 5 years.

Significant increases in electricity costs are expected over the years

until 2015, where the Government has announced that natural gas for

electricity production will be sold at the world market price.

Life Cycle Energy Costs

Developers and Quantity Surveyers

To demonstrate that energy efficient buildings

are commercially and technically viable,

and that energy efficient green buildings

is the better option compared to a grey building,

as green buildings are more attractive in the marketplace

and will retain a higher value than grey buildings.

The Target groups for the BSEEP Demonstration Program - 1

Clients and tenants

To demonstrate that energy efficient green buildings are viable in the

marketplace, that such buildings and facilities can be requested, and that

the extra costs regarding purchase or lease are very minimal.

To demonstrate that energy efficient green buildings are more healthy and

that people working in low carbon buildings are more productive and happy

on their work.

The Target groups for the BSEEP Demonstration Program - 2

MK Land on Study Tour in Freiburg Germany

Architects and engineers

To demonstrate that the technologies and design strategies to achieve energy

efficient buildings are available in Malaysia. For architects the crucial value is to

demonstrate energy efficient architecture and to demonstrate what really makes the

architecture energy efficient and green.

For the M&E engineers to become familiar with what it takes to make a building low

carbon. For both architects and engineers to demonstrate that a successful and

feasible design can be achieved through integrated design development with a

relatively limited list of crucial design elements.

The Target groups for the BSEEP Demonstration Program - 3

Investors and bankers

To demonstrate that low carbon buildings are technically sound and

commercially viable, that green low carbon buildings are viable investment

objects that will prevail economically compared to grey buildings.

The Target groups for the BSEEP Demonstration Program - 4

Government and Legislation

To demonstrate that energy efficient buildings with a carbon footprint 40 –

60% lower than today are economically and technically feasible, and that

this building standard can be implemented as the standard in the Building

by Laws towards the end of BESEEP program in year 2015.

Design targets regarding energy efficiency

The BSEEP program needs to push the standard for energy efficiency and low carbon

footprint in buildings in Malaysia significantly. The time for small steps has passed.

Malaysia has committed to a reduction in the Carbon Emission Intensity by 40% from

2005 until 2020, and the building sector has to deliver to achieve this target.

Based on experiences with finalized and ongoing projects at IEN Consultants,

we believe that the following performance targets for the BSEEP

Demonstration projects are appropriate and feasible :

New non-domestic buildings ( office buildings) : reduce the Energy Index

from typically 220 kWh/m2year to 90 kWh/m2year, a reduction of 60%.

Mean ~ 220 kWh/m2year

Existing non-domestic buildings ( office buildings) : Reduce the energy

consumption by 40 - 50%, depending on the actual building.

New housing and existing housing : A reduction of the energy

consumption of at least 50% to be achieved, including the use of energy

efficient appliances for the kitchen.

The target will be a Zero Carbon building if solar PV is applied for low rise

housing ( bungalows, semi-D’s and link houses) where there is enough

roof space for PV.
