100 Pacific Highway

A.G. Coombs is working with ISPT to optimise energy performance throughout its building portfolio, through a Building Energy Optimisation Program (BEOP) – a sophisticated program of building systems tuning and ongoing energy efficiency maintenance strategies.

BEOPs typically result in between a 0.5 and 1 NABERS Energy Star improvements in retained ongoing building energy efficiency, and are proving to be a cost effective solution, with costs typically paid back in 12 to 18 months.

Having conducted an initial audit and detailed review of the building operations at 100 Pacific Highway, A.G. Coombs proposed and implemented a program of initiatives that considered the building dynamics as a whole. The program had a specific focus on control strategies and the optimisation of the existing systems, including air conditioning, lighting and power systems.

As such, 100 Pacific Highway was tuned to best match the requirements of its occupants whilst helping to minimise annual energy consumption.

A.G. Coombs was then appointed to provide an integrated HVAC maintenance solution, which has seen further rating improvement and improved building performance. An ongoing strategy of seasonal tuning and energy efficiency focused maintenance ensures the building rating will be retained, and ensures optimal energy efficiency for the tenant.

A.G. Coombs has a demonstrated ability to understand how the energy consuming services in a building should operate to provide optimum conditions for the occupants, whilst consuming the minimal amount of energy. This has seen A.G. Coombs make significant contributions to building energy optimisation programs directed towards improving the ISPT Portfolio NABERS star ratings. Partnering with A.G. Coombs to assist us with meeting our strategic energy efficiency goals has delivered outstanding results to the benefit of our tenants and ISPT.
