Abstract:
Energy is one of the basic needs in human life. Energy is obtained from multiple sources
such as fossil fuels and renewable sources. People seek to generate and use energy at the
lowest costs, as the world is moving towards solutions and methods to conserve energy
and not waste it, especially in facilities and factories, where energy conservation and
management measures contribute to economic development in the world.
Building management systems are one of the methods used to find solutions and
opportunities to reduce energy consumption in facilities and factories.
This study aims to use Building Management Systems (BMS) to find opportunities to
reduce energy consumption in the Korean building at Palestine Polytechnic University -
Hebron, and to develop plans that include modern methods and recommendations to
rationalize the use of (HVAC) and normal loads and lighting in the building and to apply
some mechanisms to the Korean building to reduce the value of The electricity bill in the
building, for example, before applying the Building Management System (BMS) to the
Korean building, the annual bill for the building was NIS 225932, and after applying the
Building Management System (BMS) to the Korean building, the annual bill for the
building was NIS 127,000. That is, the application of the Building Management System
(BMS) The building saves approximately 99,000 shekels per year. Note that the costs of
the (BMS) process do not exceed 265,000 shekels, and the amount can be recovered after
2-3 years. After that, a study was carried out for the project during 20 years, and it was
found that it had reaped profits of more than 1,600,000 shekels during 20 years of
implementing the project. Note that the application of building management systems
saves money and human effort and saves time.
