 Major BS Design Facts
„ Total installed AC loading is 10150 RT and all chillers to
use fresh water cooling towers for energy efficiency

„ Direct Digital Control Variable Air Volume (VAV) AC

system for office to achieve best energy efficiency and
operation flexibility

„ Office floor to floor 3900 mm with finished ceiling height of

2620 mm including a 150 mm raised floor for
telecom,data and power wirings

„ 17 nos. 1.5 MVA transformer and 27 nos. 1.0 MVA

transformer with substations either above or below ground
to maximise commercial values of ground floor space.
 Major BS Design Facts (cont’d)
„ Oversized Retail Atrium with volume exceeding 137,000
m3 requiring fire engineering design approach to satisfy
FSD’s requirements

„ Fully addressable digital automatic fire alarm system with

special ‘long throw sprinkler’ design for the retail atrium
base where ceiling height exceeding 60 m

„ Daily Potable Water Consumption estimated 1060 m3

„ Over 60 nos. of high performance VVVF drive lifts with

speed up to 8 m/s and 50 nos. of escalator fitted with
variable speed drive
Sustainable BS Designs
1. Office Lighting

„ Energy Efficient T5 fluorescent fitting producing

average 500 lux at 15.7 W/m2 or better

„ Good Colour Rendering Ra 85 or better

„ Good direct and indirect light distribution to

eliminate ’Dark Cave’ lighting effect.

„ Daylight sensor dimming control for perimeter offices

„ Glare Control

„ Good Utilisation factor and high maintenance factor

2. Heating Ventilation & Air-conditioning Design

„ Water cooled chiller system for the whole
development was adopted after lengthy liaison with
the Water Authority. This can achieve over 25 %
energy saving (represent around HK$ 8.0 M) in AC
power annually

„ Variable speed drive control for retail chillers to cope

with the frequently AC varying load characteristics of
the retail areas. This can reduce the AC power
energy by a further 8 to 10 %

„ Variable Air Volume (VAV) control system for the

office areas for better energy management
Sustainable BS Designs (cont’d)

2. Heating Ventilation & Air-conditioning Design

(cont’d)

„ DDC system for the hotel guestroom fan coil system

„ Retail to adopt ‘fresh air on demand’ design

concept

„ Water source heat recovery heat pump for hotel hot

water supply system with electric boiler as back up
„ Selection of Office curtain wall
glass
„ Solar gain through curtain wall
represents around 25% of the
total A/C loading
„ “Steel Blue” double glazing

3. Other Energy Saving Proposals

3.1 Variable Speed Drives

„ Variable Speed Drives are very effective means

to save electricity by varying the E&M
equipment output to closely meet the load
demand. We have adopted variable speed
drive fans, pumps and motors in various E&M
equipment of this development to achieve
energy saving
Sustainable BS Designs (cont’d)

3.2 Retail Variable Drive Chiller Systems

„ Used because retail loads are more fluctuating and

individual chiller capacity is larger where part load
performance efficiency is better
Sustainable BS Designs (cont’d)

3.3 Variable Air Volume Design (VAV)

„ Office using Variable Air Volume (VAV) Design and this is

in fact nearly a standard design for most first class office
buildings in Hong Kong
Sustainable BS Designs

3.4 Variable speed Drive

Escalators.

„ Escalators will run on

low speed during low
load condition and
run at normal rated
speed upon
detection of
passenger for energy
saving.

„ Payback period is
around 2 years

3.5 ‘Fresh Air on Demand’ for the Retail

Arcade Areas

„ Pre-cooled fresh air will be supplied to the retail area

at a rate of 120 m3/sec and controlled by means of
CO2 sensors at returned air plenum

„ Due to variation in nos of retail shoppers during

different times of the day, supply of fresh air will be
suitably controlled such it is directly proportional to
population of the retail area for energy saving
Sustainable BS Designs (cont’d)

3.6 Full Energy Reset Control for Hotel Guestrooms

„ Hotel room lighting and A/C will be controlled by key tag

and BMS to achieve energy saving

„ Guest room AC will be reset to higher room temperature

around 26 C with fan speed running at low speed
automatically when guest leaves the room

„ Hotel operator can remotely control via BMS and reset

guest room AC condition to suit energy management
scheme
Sustainable BS Designs (cont’d)

3.7 Heat Pumps for AC heat recovery for hotel hot water supply

„ Waste heat recovery heat pumps form the base hot

water heating plant of the hotel

„ Average COP is around 3.5 compared to electric or gas

boiler of which the COP is normally less than 1
Sustainable BS Designs (cont’d)

3.8 Air to Water heat pump for hotel swimming pool/Jacuzzi

pool heating and filtration plant room cooling

„ Package air source heat pumps are used for pool

heating and plant room cooling simultaneously.
