Overcoming hidden HVAC costs with Demand Flow

Across many campuses, chilled-water and HVAC systems are among the largest and least visible cost drivers. Systems are often not broken, but they are operating below peak efficiency, consuming more energy and creating unnecessary strain over time. In fact, chillers alone can account for more than half of annual electricity use in a building. This paper explores the hidden operational shortcomings behind rising energy costs and how a more connected, system-wide approach can help campuses regain control, reduce risk, and improve performance: without disrupting day-to-day operations.
