Abstract :
This paper summarizes a Capstone Project focused on evaluating the energy use of the John Paul Jones Arena (JPJ). JPJ is a multipurpose arena and uses a tremendous amount of energy each day. An energy analysis of the John Paul Jones Arena was conducted and primary categories of energy use were identified as: electricity, hot water, and chilled water. Linear regression and time series analyses were conducted and illustrated potential areas in which energy efficiency could be improved. Target energy projects were identified. Returns on investment were calculated for target projects to justify recommendations. JPJ was compared to similar buildings as a benchmarking exercise. The HVAC systems were also evaluated.
