Auditoría energética al edificio de la Facultad de Sistemas de la Escuela Politécnica Nacional

Abstract

In the present project an energy audit is carried out to the building of the Faculty of Systems of the National Polytechnic School, based on a methodology that requires measurements of current, voltage, harmonics, power, lighting levels, etc. In addition, it verifies the state of the facilities, as well as the habits of employees and users in general in relation to the consumption of electric energy, also administrative data such as plans, bills for energy consumption, etc are made and collected to determinate the quality of electrical energy of the building. Based on this, certain actions are proposed such as the redesign of the building's lighting system, the replacement of current luminaries with LED technology and administrative recommendations, all together allow a substantial saving of the electric energy used in the building. Finally, an economic analysis is performed to determine their feasibility.
