Performance
Since the Szencorp Building opened in November 2005, its energy and water use has been carefully monitored. Having real-time performance data has meant that the building’s performance could be tracked and analysed, ensuring it is achieving its design intent and improving on it wherever possible.

The Szencorp Building’s Building Management System (BMS) integrates the monitoring and verification system; the lighting; the weather station; active and passive thermal control; and the security system. Each floor is separated into zones, there is a total of 21 zones in the building which operate independently of each other. Temperature, humidity, daylight and lighting levels, air quality and occupation are all monitored in each zone. The BMS has an extensive database and uses this to record variations and compute trends in all aspects of the building use and management.
