Abstract :
The results of the analysis of the electricity consumption and power quality indicators in two office buildings are presented. It comprises electricity consumption and power quality during work days and weekends. The consumption data analysed is from a one year period and the power quality analysis is based on a one week measuring period. The aim of this analysis is to determine the current situation in these buildings in order to study the possibilities and limitations to implement different energy efficiency measures. In addition to the energy efficiency point of view, the problem is also addressed together with the power quality aspects.
