The New Tokyo Office, Various Topics (10)

Energy conservation in figures: Part 2

Compared to erecting a new building of the same scale, the new office cut the greenhouse gases emitted during construction by up to 96% and its energy consumption rate by up to 40%, with the introduction of the following energy-efficiency policies.

– Utilizing an energy-efficient air conditioning system
– Natural Ventilation
– Applying insulation films to the window glass
– Adopting motion sensors
– Lowering luminosity from 500 to 300 lux

Furthermore, one of our strengths is incorporating BIM from the early design phase to perform 3D thermal, wind, and spatial analysis of the interior spaces to create a comfort index. For energy management, sensors measuring temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels were placed in various locations. By tracking the data and creating variations in the work environment, it has become possible for individuals to pick the location that suits their thermal comfort the best.

We will continue developing our management system further using the new office as a model.
