History of Energy Supply at UEA• Early 1960s: central boiler house built with three 8MW boilers
providing water at 105 – 115o C at 10 bar pressure to circulate around the campus.
• Fuel used: heavy residual oil• 1984: small 4 MW boiler was added• 1987: interruptible gas was provided so boiler could run on
either heavy fuel oil or gas.• 1997/8: one 8 MW boiler removed and 3 1 MW CHP plants
installed• 2002: remaining heavy fuel oil provision converted to light oil• 2006: Absorption Chiller installed• 2010: Biomass Plant installed• Most buildings on campus have heat provision from central boiler
house.– Exceptions: Elizabeth Fry, Queens, EDU, Nelson Court,
Constable Terrace.

The Future: Biomass Advanced Gasifier/ Combined Heat and Power
• Addresses increasing demand for energy as University expands
• Will provide an extra 1.4MW of electrical energy and 2MWth heat• Will have under 7 year payback• Will use sustainable local wood fuel mostly from waste from saw
mills• Will reduce Carbon Emissions of UEA by ~ 25% despite increasing student numbers by 250%

Conclusions• Effective adaptive energy management can reduce heating
energy requirements in a low energy building by 50% or more.
• Heavy weight buildings can be used to effectively control energy consumption
• Photovoltaic cells need to take account of intended use of electricity use in building to get the optimum value.
• Building scale CHP can reduce carbon emissions significantly
• Adsorption chilling should be included to ensure optimum utilisation of CHP plant, to reduce electricity demand, and allow increased generation of electricity locally.
• Promoting Awareness can result in up to 25% savings
• When the Biomass Plant is fully operational, UEA will have cut its carbon emissions per student by over 70% since 1990.
