The For the last half a century, Korea has been experiencing rapid economic growth and industrialized development, however they cause serious problems that environmental pollution and energy shortage have appeared, and the biggest problem that Koreans are now confronted are required solutions throughout the world. At that time, Korea's energy consumption ranks 10th in the whole world. Among them, energy for buildings, about 25% of the total amount of energy consumed in Korea, is very serious. Especially, the energy consumption of school buildings, which have a heating & cooling system according to improvements of the educational environment, is rapidly increasing. These features are explicit in the University, Because it has lots of colleges and facilities for lecture, experiment, and research. In this paper, the energy consumption of Kyungpook National University which is at Daegu, Korea was investigated. This study attempts to appoint the place which is one of University and to investigate the characteristics of energy consumption like electricity, gas, oil. Using the investigation results, we can obtain the overall trend of energy consumption of the university and provide important data basis to guide rebuild and extend construction of school in the future. |
