Energy Conservation Hong Kong

John Herbert
Registered Energy Assessor(REA)
Energy conservation is vital in Hong Kong, as a service economy
90% of electricity generated is used in buildings which equates
to more than 60% of GreenHouse Gas emissions.
An energy conservation policy drives lower energy consumption,
cutting energy bill costs, and also lowering carbon emissions.
With international experience, we help organsations save
energy based on real practical opportunities, that also lower your
carbon footprint.
We have conducted energy investigations for different sectors,
including shopping centres, commercial buildings, sports centres,
wet markets, hotels, museums, and identified very significant
cost savings.
John Herbert wrote an article in 2006 recomending
that cooling tower fans be fitted with Variable Speed
Drives (VSD) to lower the running cost for water based
air conditioning systems, more than a decade later, in
May 2019 the latest Building Energy Code (2018 version)
came into effect, and the new code includes cooling
towers for the first time, and requires VSD for
cooling tower fans (because they can save a lot of energy).

Energy costs are rising every year, bills are increasing, these
impact your bottom line, Kelcroft's expertise helps cut your
energy bills.

Energy Conservation step by step
The first step starts with an investigation of the building, an energy audit,
collecting data that may affect your buildings energy consumption, your energy
bills, etc. for later analysis.
We examine and identify energy/cost savings, and compare the energy
performance against published standards.
The next step is the implementation plan, we help implement the findings,
including any improvement works, erify the works are upto standard, and
ensure that the energy work is properly commissioned!
