Ever since the completion of Politeknik Kuching Sarawak (PKS) first major
networking project in 2002, its energy consumption has been in the steady rise.
Although the increment was understandable, the increasing energy wastage in terms
of standby power consumption by ICT equipment and equipment not being switch
off was intolerable. With the aim of finding the solution to this issue, the project was
divided into three parts. The first part of the project surveyed the level of awareness
among the staff during a monthly assembly and found out despite the high level of
awareness among the academic staff, some 38% of them admitted they do not switch
off their computer and thus jeopardizing the management’s desire to put a stop to
energy wastage. Secondly, the field measurement of ten types of selected office
equipment has been carried out with minimum five samples of measurement taken
whenever possible to produce a good average value. The bottom-up estimation
method then put the annual standby power consumption of PKS at 64,653.11 kWh
and cost a staggering RM 21,982.06. Finally, unlike the conventional method of
using current level detection to detect appliances going into standby mode, the
project came out with an alternative standby power cut-off system that utilises light
source as a mean of controlling the system and is suitable for the usage in an office
environment. |
