As energy prices continue to soar, facility managers are under increasing pressure to find ways to cut building operating costs. A simple solution would be to decrease energy consumption, which, in some cases, is done at the expense of comfort. However, recent studies indicate that productivity decreases as comfort levels decline, leading to lost revenues in companies and difficult learning environments in schools. US-based Automated Logic Corporation, has therefore come up with an inventory, in the Automatic Logic Environmental Index (ALC) which is said to measure comfort, so that facility managers can get to know exactly how far to cut energy usage without negatively impacting comfort. Since the key component of comfort is temperature, ALC’s index starts with assigning point values based on the difference between zone temperature and heating and cooling set points. Other factors, such as humidity and carbon dioxide levels, can also be computed into the numeric system to reflect one ‘comfort’ score for all factors. This is a powerful tool for facility managers who need to identify buildings with performance problems or ensure that buildings do not become less efficient as changes are made.
