Abstract

The present study aims to provide insight on energy profiling of a residential college in public university. The study involves electrical energy monitoring for six months from the month of March until August 2017. The data utilized to derive the average monthly consumption for both semester period and semester break. The consumption during semester break has been recorded to increase as much as 88% from the consumption during the semester break. The building energy index of the residential college has been recorded to be at 22.90 kWh/m2/year meanwhile the energy intensity was recorded to be at 1,932.08 kWh/occupant/year.
