这份报告回顾了国家和公用事业公司最近进行的六项研究(从2002年到2006年)，以评估现有商业建筑的节能潜力。这些研究覆盖了加利福尼亚州、康涅狄格州、佛蒙特州、科罗拉多州、伊利诺伊州和太平洋西北部的全部或部分地区。研究清楚地表明，照明仍然是唯一最大、最具成本效益的最终用途，可以减少以节省能源。总体而言，研究表明，在现有技术和成本的情况下，现有商业建筑的经济节约潜力的合理范围是当前能源使用量的10%至20%。虽然不是这项研究的重点，但另一个结论是，商业建筑监控的实施也将在国家提高现有建筑能效的努力中发挥重要作用。
This report reviews six recent studies (from 2002 through 2006) by states and utilities to assess the energy saving potential in existing commercial buildings. The studies cover all or portions of California, Connecticut, Vermont, Colorado, Illinois, and the Pacific Northwest. The studies clearly reveal that lighting remains the single largest and most cost effective end use that can be reduced to save energy. Overall the study indicated that with existing technologies and costs, a reasonable range of economic savings potential in existing commercial buildings is between 10 and 20 percent of current energy use. While not a focus of the study, an additional conclusion is that implementation of commercial building monitoring and controls would also play an important role in the nation’s efforts to improve energy efficiency of existing buildings.
