Coordinated Energy Study, Executive Summary, Volume 1.
Abstract
The results of the energy engineering analysis performed at Dwight David Eisenhower Army Medical Center (DDEAMC), located in Fort Cordon, Georgia are summarized herein. The work was performed by Affiliated Engineers, Inc. for the Army Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, under Army Contract No. DACA21-83-C-0188. The project included a detailed energy audit of the hospital and energy support facilities, development of a utility metering plan, and investigation of numerous energy conservation measures. Energy analyses were performed with the assistance of the ESP-II energy simulation computer program developed by Automated Procedures for Engineering Consultants (APEC) The energy conservation analysis showed that the opportunities for the most energy savings resulted from the installation of an Energy Monitoring and Control System (EMCS) and from modifications to the central plant chilled water systems. It was found that additional savings were available by upgrading miscellaneous thermal and electrical systems for greater energy efficiency. Finally, implementation documentation was developed for the various Energy Conservation Investment Programs (ECIP) and other energy conservation projects that met Army criteria.
