Abstract
The industrial sector is a major energy consumer worldwide. Much of this consumption is due to air conditioning systems. In regions with extreme temperature conditions, the electricity consumption of these air conditioning systems increases significantly. This study was carried out with the objective of calculating the total energy consumption of the factory and identifying methods to decrease it. Furthermore, an enhanced energy system is suggested to lower energy consumption. This study was carried out with the objective of calculating the total energy consumption of the factory and identifying methods to decrease it. Furthermore, an enhanced energy system is suggested to lower energy consumption. It is also evident that the cooling load decreases by 21,661 kWh when thermal insulation is applied to the walls. Utilizing double-glazed windows for the skylight roof can lead to a reduction in the cooling load by 822 kWh. Additionally, the use of Light-Emitting Diode (LED) bulb lamps in the factory can further decrease the cooling load by up to 14,717 kWh.
