Abstract

Energy efficiency tools are pre-design evaluation program, which would give early indications whether the electrical equipments used are giving benefits to energy efficiency sectors or not. The program developed also serve as an indicators for making necessary improvements for the upcoming construction projects, as well as equipped the existing buildings with more applications. Among the tools practiced today, this paper focus on ENERGY-10 as a redesign programmed and the newly build SESE as a post design measurement. Comparison of the two energy efficiency tools would give invaluable information about the planning and also the estimation of energy saving in building.
