Main Challenges in Chinese Hospitals

User behaviour (patients and staff)

Poor qualification of the technical staff Overdesigned facilities bad maintenance high running costs

More than 54 % hospital buildings were built before 2005 no external wall insulation High energy loss in the steam supply system (20-30%) Old water pipe system Problem with hydraulic balance in the heating and cooling system (controls and regulations) Capacity shortage of hospitals Project financing

Approaches and Technical Options for Energy Efficiency Measures

Approaches Awareness raising through energy benchmarking Energy analysis to uncover main problems Prioritize the energy efficiency measures using a catalog Start with simple measures with short pay-pack periods Set up pilot project for demonstration Technical Options Quick steam generators Cogeneration/Trigeneration (KWK/K) Heat/Chill recovery technology External wall isolation Modernization of the heat/cooling system Set up effective energy consumption controlling system
