Defining corporate energy policy and strategy to achieve carbon Emissions reduction Targets via energy MANAGEMENT in non-energy intensive multi-site manufacturing organisations
Finnerty, Noel; Sterling, Raymond; Contreras, Sergio; Coakley, Daniel; Keane, Marcus M. (Elsevier, 2018-03-14)Research on the characteristics of long-term energy policy and associated strategies in multisite manufacturing organisations is limited. Non-energy intensive multinationals do not face the environmental regulations ... -
Development of a Global Energy Management System for non-energy intensive multi-site industrial organisations: A methodology
Finnerty, Noel; Sterling, Raymond; Coakley, Daniel; Contreras, Sergio; Coffey, Ronan; Keane, Marcus M. (Elsevier, 2017-01-25)For multi-site organisations, informed decision making on capital investment aimed at improving energy performance and cutting carbon emissions, across a global site base, is a complex problem. This work presents the ... -
Energy efficiency facets: Innovative district cooling systems
Passerini, Francesco; Sterling, Raymond; Keane, Marcus M.; Klobut, Krzysztof; Costa, Andrea (Entrepreneurship and Sustainability Center, 2017-03-31)Cooling demand in buildings is globally increasing, therefore developing more efficient cooling systems is important for the sustainability of European cities. Directive 2012/27/EU of the European Parliament and of the ... -
An energy management maturity model for multi-site industrial organisations with a global presence
Finnerty, Noel; Sterling, Raymond; Coakley, Daniel; Keane, Marcus M. (Elsevier, 2017-07-27)Literature reviewed suggests energy maturity models are in their infancy in the energy management sector, with little practical guidance for their implementation in multi-site organisations. In addressing this gap, this ... -
Model-based fault detection and diagnosis of air handling units: A comparison of methodologies
Sterling, Raymond; Provan, Gregory; Febres, Jesús; O'Sullivan, Dominic; Struss, Peter; Keane, Marcus M. (Elsevier, 2014-12-26)This paper presents a comparison between two model based diagnostics methodologies that can be used to detect and diagnose various faults that occur in Air Handling Units. The process from model development to inference ... -
Virtual testbed for model predictive control development in district cooling systems
Zabala, Laura; Febres, Jesus; Sterling, Raymond; López, Susana; Keane, Marcus M. (Elsevier, 2020-06-05)Recently, with increasing cooling demands, district cooling has assumed an important role as it is more efficient than stand-alone cooling systems. District cooling reduces the environmental impact and promotes the use of ...
