Ranked by overall score (1-10), the average of Impact, Feasibility, Cost to implement (lower is better, flipped).
Compare thermostat schedules with occupancy logs, then shut off heating and cooling during verified empty periods.
Compare controller override histories with holiday calendars; remove heating or cooling commands left active across closures.
Use outdoor temperature and warm-up data to start equipment only as early as needed before occupancy.
Keep occupied evening rooms comfortable while setting unoccupied zones back, verified with room-level booking records.
Use a smoke pencil to locate leaks around frames; weatherstripping can reduce heating loss without replacing windows.
Fit EPDM gaskets to operable sash gaps; verify smoke-pencil movement drops after installation.
Seal stationary frame-to-wall joints with paintable elastomeric caulk to stop concealed infiltration.
Adjust loose keepers so sashes compress existing seals; compare latch-side leakage before and after.
Install plug-level meters on server racks and printers to identify equipment responsible for overnight baseload.
Capture 15-minute readings for one week to pinpoint idle servers drawing above 200 watts.
Compare overnight meter readings before and after lowering sleep timers to identify avoidable standby draw.
Cross-check plug meters against a calibrated wattmeter to avoid misattributing baseload from measurement error.
Swap frequently used fixtures for LEDs and record circuit kWh before and after to verify savings.
Move batch processing to cooler overnight hours to reduce peak demand charges and server-room cooling load.
