Operational Insights

Alarm Distribution by Priority Level

Critical Alarms Overview

Recommendations

Energy Savings Recommendations

  • Prioritize maintenance of boiler systems which represent £42,000 annual savings potential
  • Address short cycling issues in Boiler 4 (Main Boiler MCP) which wastes 150 kWh daily
  • Investigate AHU-related issues with high unacknowledged alarm count (avg. 834)
  • Resolve Chiller 2 short cycling issues in Chiller Plantroom (£12.60/day waste)
  • Review simultaneous heating/cooling operations that may be occurring in edge cases

Asset Management Recommendations

  • Implement improved after-hours monitoring for critical alarms (42.9% occur outside business hours)
  • Address the pump maintenance backlog (lowest response rate at 25%)
  • Create a tiered response system based on equipment energy impact
  • Review alarm acknowledgment procedures for AHUs (average 834 unacknowledged)
  • Implement predictive maintenance for frequently alarming equipment

Addressing the identified energy waste issues at SITE00152 would have a significant positive environmental impact. The annual CO₂ reduction of over 218,964 kg is equivalent to taking 48 cars off the road for a year or powering 88 UK homes for a year. This represents a substantial contribution to carbon reduction targets and improves the building's overall sustainability profile.
