Building Energy Efficiency is a hot topic at the moment. If you ask an architect about energy efficiency, they will say it is mostly to do with design and construction. A controls person will tell you that real energy efficiency requires a state of the art BMS system. The air conditioning engineer will of course, tell you it’s all about the air conditioning design. The St Columba School library project is a great example of how a holistic approach that integrates design, construction, BMS and air conditioning technology can produce truly exceptional energy efficiency results.

In January this year the “Energy Rating” organisation announced that from April 2019 a standardised method of calculating the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) will come into play.
