Question

The most beneficial aspect of building automation is energy efficiency

Answer 1

Automation in energy efficient building consists of

- LED  lighting system for more efficient and economic lighting systems

- HVAC:This is the most energy intensive end-use in a       building. Installing controls will enable efficient operations and allow user to think of reducing the major energy drains

- Process loads - finetuning your plug loads and processes in case they are not working optimally. Conducting an energy audit at regular intervals will highlight underlying issues.

-Energy Simulation:Maintain an energy simulation model for your building to predict energy savings and compare with actual energy use
