Abstract
On one hand the typical energy resources are becoming limited around the world but
also the renewable sources of energy are not efficient or economic enough to fulfill the
rising emerging demand of future. Above all, Pakistan is already affected by energy crisis
and struggling to produce more power sources that may replace environmentally
hazardous fossil fuel based energy in this country. It is evident in literature that saving or
conserving energy has been a major contributor in reducing energy demand in developed
countries. It is not known that how much of energy wastage is typical in an urban
environment of a developing country like Pakistan and then according to the available
resources and technologies, how much of it can be saved.

This paper presents one of the strategy for assessment of energy wastage and
identification of energy saving methods for Pakistan and other developing countries in
general.

Keywords: Energy wastage, urban, energy resource, energy demand

I. INTRODUCTION
By looking at the energy statistics of Pakistan, almost 70-80 % of our energy supply is
being wasted. Much of this waste is recoverable by deploying energy efficiency, energy
conservation and waste heat recovery measures. A MW saved is a MW generated,
however this savings can be achieved at a fractional cost as compared to installing
additional generation capacity. The first step to realize these savings is conducting an
energy audit. The Energy Conservation Measures thus suggested can easily save 5% to
30% of the Energy bill. This is immediate profit for the industry and immediate saving on
the fuel bill for the government. “We cannot improve what we cannot Measure.” Energy
Efficiency is the “low hanging fruit.” Internationally Energy Efficiency is treated as an
“Energy Resource.”
Industrial and residential sectors are consuming energy up to 42 TOE which quantifies
488 Million MWH in Pakistan. This is very big amount and 5% to 30% of total can easily
be saved through energy conservation measures. Average tariff is Rs 10/KWH and 5% to
30% saving can benefit from 244 Billion to 1,464 Billion annually. [4]
a. ENERGY AUDIT
The determination of energy audit is to determine the usage of energy in a building and
its improvement techniques and Energy Services Companies and other engineering
consultants are estimating energy auditing. Accurate data is required during energy
assessment of building and energy auditors must be in touch with client and other team
member to ensure efficiency. Buildings energy consumption is high and energy audit can
help in existing building energy retrofitting measure that will achieve less consumption,
and environmental impact of buildings. So its purpose is to assess current energy
consumption of building and define alternative solutions energy user for energy saving.
Buildings have many system like plugs, lighting, heating devise and cooling etc. which
consumes energy with different amount and these demands vary with different factors
like outdoor and indoor air quality, orientation and location of buildings. Energy
assessment of building must be done to determine effect of these factors. [1]
TYPES OF ENERGY AUDIT
Energy audit of all system in a building gives accurate results and clear idea of energy
saving opportunities in different system. But energy audit of specific system may miss
some energy saving option but it’s good for having less funds and specific projects.
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineer (ASHRAE)
have categorized into three level of energy audit. Each level depends on data collection
and its assessment and hence energy saving opportunities is increased. [1]
i. LEVEL I- WALKTHROUGH AUDIT
Walkthrough audit of building is visual observation of building and to get familiar with
operation and maintenance of different system. This audit include meetings with owner
of building and online survey to know about problems that effect energy efficiency of
building. For saving of energy simple actions are suggested to building owner. At the last
report having capital improvements and further process for extra effort in energy saving
are provided. [1]
 ii. LEVEL II-ENERGY SURVEY AND ANALYSIS
This level of audit includes calculation of energy assessment through measuring devices
and simulation. This will require energy modeling of building and to measure major
energy consuming components in building. [1]
iii. LEVEL III- DETAILED AUDIT
This level of audit includes same techniques as above but requires some greater level of
detail and higher level of preliminary cost. [1]

II. LITERATURE REVIEW

In modern technology, many stakeholders which includes states, federal government,

municipalities and etc have documented the main part that the energy saving can play
confronting energy, climate change and economics disasters. Now this change is
growing towards energy saving scaling in U.S buildings, mainly in residential buildings,
which costs about one fifth of total energy usage in the U.S. [8]

In early 1970s and 1980s, different utility companies of America are running simple
residential energy saving techniques and programs. Many of recent days residential
energy saving programs are remain to drive old programs, a new energy saving
technologies has begun. These fresh generations of techniques are used for economic and
different features of energy usage and also consider the behavioral and social aspects of
energy consumption. To increase the energy saving in residential areas a variety of
approaches informed by behavioral and social sciences research, like feedbacks,
mobilization of community and etc.

Many investors in the energy saving field debate that rising a platform that practices
complicated methods to succeed energy savings is essential to measure up energy saving
to stages that can sufficiently report energy and environment tasks [3]. Although there
has been little assessment of this fresh group of energy saving platforms, fresh educations
focus how the combination of behavioral and educational plans into database strategies
can help rise energy savings [2]. The rising request for comprehensive methods to
domestic energy saving databases highpoints a main change emerging in the energy
saving pitch. With current energy saving programs strong only 2% of the target
population, platform managers are facing enlarged pressure to study how resident
frameworks can encouragement the act of an energy saving program [5].

In terms of identifying strategies to improve energy performance, whole-building energy

benchmarking permits owners and facility operators to track and set targets by comparing
to peers for improvements and allows receiving acknowledgements for superior
achievements [6]. In the design phase, benchmarking can be used to validate designs. For
existing buildings, benchmarking allows for the identification of maintenance and control
problems. In doing so, owners can identify savings potential and further prioritize future
projects [7].
III. METHODOLOGY
Electric Energy and Gas Energy is wasting in commercial and residential sector of
Peshawar we can save it on bases of energy audits. Guideline is also not available for that
but it can be assessed by energy audits. Energy efficiency has become a common target
for every building. In under developed countries reduction in energy consumption is
difficult in residential and commercial sector. In order to overcome these difficulties this
research will propose a framework to asses formulate energy saving potential of
buildings.
a. USING BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING
For assessment of building energy wastage, Building information modeling can be used
as a choice. Figure 1 shows room model in which we did its energy audit. Results shown
in figure 2 shows energy loads on building that can be interpreted as cooling and heating
load.

Figure 1. Room Model

 Figure 2. Monthly Heating Load

Figure 3. Monthly Cooling Load

Figure 2 shows heating load on that room which shows that value of heat below the zero
line is wastage. Heat wastage occurs through wall so if we use insulated wall this wastage
can be controlled. In the same manner figure 3 shows cooling load on that room and
value of cooling loads above zero line is gain and below is loss. So for value above zero
line heat must be added for thermal comfort.
b. INSTRUMENTS
Different instruments are commonly using for measuring energy efficiency throughout
the world few of them are given below.

Pinless Moisture Psychrometer + IR Thermometer

Pinless moisture Psychrometer benefits us for measuring moisture in different type of
materials and while remote pin probe is used for direct contact moisture. Temperature
and humidity probe allows us to get relative humidity, air temperature plus Grains per
Pound (GPP), Dew Point (DP), and vapor pressure. Extech MO295 can memorize upto
20 readings, and having analogue display for showing high and low moisture values,
alarm for humidity, condensation point, data hold and Auto power off function.

Conclusions
A proposal has been made for a methodology to the application of a standard energy audit with
academic purposes which can be implemented in the residential and commercial sectors. This
methodology allows to establish an energy diagnosis is easy to use and can be executed anyplace
where there is consumption of electric energy, through the use of equipment’s, that can be rented
for a short period in order to make the corresponding measurements.
The proposed methodology has the advantages that can be used anywhere because the equipment
for the measurements are transportable and easily accessible and the used software for the
comparison of the results is free access and easy to use. This process seeks to raise awareness of
the quality of energy used by the general population in their work or in their homes, and then
design and implement energy saving plans that can reduce the cost of energy consumption and
apply the concept of energy efficiency.
