Project Overview

 

Innovation Place is a 23-storey A-grade commercial office building located in North Sydney. It has been designed to a five-star base building Australian Building Greenhouse Rating and as such has a strong focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. 

 

PlantPRO was installed at this site to both optimise the operation of the central plant and to provide advanced measurement and reporting capabilities to the building. 

 

Control strategies included active lift optimisation through a combination of chilled water and condenser water reset, which was further enhanced with variable speed primary pumping control. In addition to this, optimised chiller sequencing was employed to ensure the best fit chiller was always sequenced for the given building load.
