9. Building Regulations (Part L) – energy strategy new
build - 2006 and beyond
2010 25% reduction on 2006
2013 44% reduction
2016 Net Zero Carbon Residential
2019 Net Zero Carbon Buildings including Hospitals
2006CO2

10. But ..
New buildings
are not yet NZ
• UK government has stalled
on Part L targets
• Drive for modern attractive
design outweighs NZ
• Developers keen on
architecture (and letting
rates) – not so much on NZ
11. Defining NZEB’s
What is ‘Net Zero’ ?
Define by the Performance Metric
• Net Zero Site Energy Building
• Produces as much energy as it consumes annually - when measured at the site
• Net Zero Source Energy Building
• Produces as much energy annually as it uses - compared to the energy content at the
source
• Net Zero Energy Cost Building
• Uses energy efficiency and renewable energy strategies so that annual energy cost is zero
• Net Zero Energy Emissions Building
• Annual carbon emissions by the energy needs of the building are zero – by using
renewable energy systems or other means
11
12. Zero Energy Target—UK Schools
• UK—Target all new schools zero carbon
by 2016
• Public engagement – energy and carbon
• Develop knowledge and skills
• Feedback on performance
• Low and zero carbon energy supplies
• Investment and improvement
• Living labs – visual impact
• Students monitor targets – and learn
about Net Zero energy

13. Manchester City, UK
Vision 2050 – now 2040
Manchester is playing its full part in limiting the impacts of climate
change, locally and globally.
It is a thriving, zero carbon, zero waste, climate resilient city where
all our residents, public, private and third sector organisations are
actively contributing to and benefiting from the city’s success.

17. London’s Action Plan
The mayor aims for London to be a
zero carbon city by 2050, with energy-
efficient buildings, clean transport,
and clean energy.
Make sure that all new developments
are zero carbon from 2019, with clean
supplies of energy and high energy
efficiency designed in from the start

19. • Grenfell Tower disaster
• BREXIT confusion
• UK engineers NOT registered
• CPD not mandatory – yet !
• Certification of contractors limited and ineffective
• Building services courses closing
• Industry leadership and management issues as companies argue, collapse
or fail to deliver – such as Carrillion collapse
• Poor care of historic buildings as fires destroy irreplaceable landmarks –
Littlewoods, Mackintosh library, Bank buildings Belfast
However – UK Construction is in crisis.
How can the UK achieve NZ hospitals ?
20. Hackitt Enquiry - Building a safer future
Government enquiry into the Grenfell Tower disaster………
Independent Review of Building Regulations and Fire Safety - 17th May 2018
Report Executive summary lists the following specific areas …
1. Roles and responsibilities of those procuring, designing, constructing and
maintaining buildings are unclear. This includes engineers who should have a
controlling and supervisory role but lack status. Often overruled by others.
2. Package of regulations and guidance (in the form of Approved Documents) can
be ambiguous and inconsistent;
3. Processes that drive compliance with building safety requirements are weak
and complex with poor record keeping and poor change control
4. Competence across the system is patchy
5. Product testing, labelling and marketing regime is opaque and insufficient
6. Voices of residents (occupants and users) often go unheard, even when safety
issues are identified. Same applies to energy usage where occupants have to
pay the bill whatever it is.
7. Integrated design and construction approach is not the norm
21. Hackitt review ongoing …
• Big Changes are coming ………
• Regulation
• Registration – such as PE
• Certification - of trades and designers
• Can these help us in our quest for Net Zero too….
22. The task ahead ..
Hospitals use a lot of energy – lots of equipment, 24 / 365 usage, specialist environments
24. Actually - UK hospitals use too much.
They use more than US hospitals…..
• Even though UK climate is temperate - less extreme summer and winter
• Median UK performance is 68.8 GJ/100m3
• Only 65% meet the mandatory target of 65 GJ/100m3 for existing build
• Only 45% meet the mandatory target of 55 GJ/100m3 for new build and
major refurb
• Only 17% are less than the US average of 40-45 GJ/100m3
• Conclusion - UK hospitals use a lot more energy than necessary
• So what chance zero energy ?
25. UK v US general acute hospital energy usage
• UK average
= 68.8
GJ/100m3
• US average
= 45
GJ/100m3
27. Hospitals CAN be net zero
• Big size is not an issue
• Long hours of usage can be a benefit if heat
energy is recovered and stored
• Hospital resilience needs electricity back up –
so more on site generation = more net zero
heat energy – and cooling (absorption chillers) –
is available
28. Big NZ example - La Jolla Commons II, Cailfornia
• 13-story La Jolla
Commons II office
University Town Centre
• Largest "net-zero" energy
building in U.S.
• 415,000 ft2
• Biogas and onsite fuel
cells
• Methane to electricity,
tapping methane in
landfills and wastewater
plants.
29. Big example - DEWA to build the tallest zero energy
building
• Dubai Electricity and Water
Authority’s (DEWA) new
headquarters (HQ) will be the tallest,
largest, and smartest net zero energy
building (ZEB) in the world once it’s
completed in 2019.
• Total renewable energy generated by
the building will be over 5,400
megawatt hours (MWh) annually.
• Al-Sheraa’s design was inspired by
the traditional houses in the UAE,
where enclosed spaces overlook an
open courtyard.
30. Initial strategy for Net Zero Hospitals
• New build and existing
• Traditional approach based on 3
steps
• Reduce demand
• Reduce waste
• Install renewable energy systems
• Reduce use of fossil fuels –
ultimately avoid fossil fuels –
decarbonise

33. Energy4Health
SUMMARY -Demand-Side Policy Roadmap - Stakeholder Consultations
Energy4Health project is 1 of 6 being carried out in support of the
EU Demand-Side Action Plan2.
• Commenced in January 2014, concluded in March 2015.
• Aim - to develop policy roadmap to influence the demand for innovative energy
solutions in the healthcare sector.
This is being implemented through four main activities:
• 1. Generate baseline scenarios to 2020
• 2. Create policy action roadmaps for more favourable scenarios
• 3. Engage with influential stakeholders
• 4. Develop implementation strategy
34. Energy4Healthcare VISION 2025
• The European healthcare sector has become a
global leader in energy efficiency and
community renewable energy systems.
• Many are becoming both carbon and cost
neutral.
• The average cost of energy is less than 1% of
healthcare budgets (currently near 20% UK)
• The sector is well on its way towards reducing
its 2050 carbon footprint to less than 20% of
1990 levels.
36. How to do more with less, by making better
use of space
Headline benefit: A Study by Conclude UK
• For a typical hospital in Sweden every 1
square metre of space saved translates into
200 -250 kWh energy saving.
• In the United Kingdom the saving translates
into 400-450 kWh.
• How much space do we actually need ?
37. How to do more with less, by making better
use of space
Actions to achieve a target less
than 200 kWh/m2
www.conclude.org.uk
Energy analysis demonstrated that ‘right-
sizing’ space and HVAC plant
infrastructure (using Occupancy
Analytics™ data), overall plant sizing could
be reduced by an average of 24%, and
energy consumption reduced to between
100 – 150 kWh/m2.
39. ACCELERATED PATIENT RECOVERY
• Research in USA in 1984
• - patient recovery rates improve
• - if they can view trees from
their hospital window
• Ulrich, R.S.,1984. View through a
window may influence recovery
from GP practice.Science 224,
420-421
40. Trees and health
• Evidence that the NHS Forest
will help sites to realise….
• Health
• Social
• Environmental
• Financial benefits
42. Internal trees - Guys hospital atriums
17 November 2019 FRANK MILLS, LCDC 42
• 4 atriums with trees
• Help patients – particularly
elderly - get familiar with
‘external’ landscapes - street
styles and surfaces
• Natural Ventilation
• Daylight

52. • Kills around 75,000 people per year in the US (200 per day)
• Average of 15 deaths per hospital per year
• But even more non fatal infections - 722,000 non-lethal infections per
year
• 1 out of 25 patients admitted to a hospital got HAI (2011)
• Estimated 5% are airborne (~ 35,000 incidents)
• ~ 150 HAI per year in every hospital in US
• Surgical Site Infection in 1 out of 50 operations
• Major push by North American Healthcare providers and associations

54. How People Get Infected
54
• Inhalation
• Deposition of particles
in air, esp. on skin
• Contact w/ surfaces
and other people
• Insects
• “Contact” exposure
(< 2m) to sneezes and
coughs, as per CDC
57. • Patient, staff, visitors
• Sneezes and Coughs
• Outside air - infiltration
• Propagating spores
• Disturbance especially during construction
• Linens, towels, cleaning clothes
• Movement of “dirty” air within the hospital
• Aerosolization, including toilets, cooling towers, air exhausts and laying
water

Controversial Issues
62
63. UK Hospital practices are wasteful ………
Ventilation systems use full fresh air
Example of UK Operating theatre schematic - from HTM 03
64. Recycling air can be done – like it is in US
Case Study – Northern Cancer Care Centre,
Newcastle
• Install packaged AHU (HTM
compliant)
• HEPA 14 filter
• 10 ACH recirculation
• 4 to 6 fresh air changes/hour
from AHU with F7 filter
65. Ventilation Upgrade
• Major refurbishment project
• Ventilation approved by Public
Health England
• Treatment rooms are now
amongst ‘cleanest in UK’
66. Ventilation Upgrade
• Patient environment priority
• But also machines which operate
between strict limits
• Air flows critical
69. Low Energy District Hospital – Romford,UK
• Over 50% naturally ventilated
• Energy reduced from 101 to 58
GJ/100m3/annum
• Lighting controls
• Heat recovery
• Daylighting with controls
• Control of glare and summer
heat gains
Queens Hospital, Romford
17 November 2019 FRANK MILLS, LCDC 69
70. Romford Hospital heating
• Gas fired CHP provides electricity
and heat cost effectively
• 4 medium pressure hot water
boilers installed – but low heating
load and high performance fabric
= no heat demand
• Actually no need for any boilers
• ‘Sometimes 1 is used’ on low heat
• Money wasted – again !
71. Natural Ventilation – ideal for hospitals
• Major energy savings
• Major Capital cost savings
• Major operational savings
• Improved infection control
• Improved indoor air quality
• Increased patient and staff comfort

80. Combined Heat and Power CHP)
• Low Carbon energy – but waste heat seen as ‘renewable’ because it displaces power
station waste
• Low carbon ‘clean’ fuel = gas
• On site generation of both heat and electrical energy
• Two types
• Heat led - most common, satisfy base heat load, top up electricity from grid
• Power led - satisfy base power load, dump heat in summer
• Decentralised energy over 50% more efficient than grid
• Payback varies with technology but for high utilisation can be as low as 4 years
• Can be used to provide absorption cooling – called Tri-generation
