// Introduction
Introduction
A large, high-use club in NSW was facing rising energy costs and increasing pressure to improve its sustainability performance. With multiple operational areas, continuous occupancy and complex HVAC requirements, the venue engaged Conservia to identify practical energy-saving opportunities without affecting member comfort or daily operations.
// Challenge
Challenge
The club wanted to reduce electricity and gas consumption, lower operating costs and improve thermal comfort across the venue. The presence of two separate Building Management System platforms added complexity and required a coordinated optimisation approach.
// Core Services Provided
Core Services Provided
Conservia implemented targeted operational improvements across the club’s HVAC and control systems, including:
- HVAC optimisation across both BMS platforms
- Improved equipment scheduling and control logic
- Major BMS tuning and logic upgrades
- Chiller control integration planning
- Continued monitoring to identify further savings opportunities
// Key Solutions
Solutions
Conservia implemented targeted HVAC and BMS improvements across the live venue, including optimised equipment scheduling, upgraded control logic and comprehensive system tuning. Performance was continuously monitored to verify savings, identify further opportunities and maintain member comfort without disrupting normal operations.
// Conslusions
Conclusion
The optimisation program delivered measurable reductions in energy consumption while maintaining comfort and operational performance across the live venue.
In the first year, the club achieved a 10% reduction in electricity usage and approximately $50,000 in annual cost savings. Further opportunities identified for the second year could deliver a 20% reduction in electricity usage, a 10% reduction in gas usage and approximately $100,000 in projected annual savings.
