The Case of a Residence Community

 

【Basic Information of the Residence Community】
■The community comprises D block and E block. D block includes 4 11-storey buildings, and E block includes 4 18-storey buildings. The community is designed for 712 resident families, with an underground garage and a community club.
■The community is supplied by 1 line of 10kV power with unsectioned single busbar. A set of diesel generators is installed as backup power.
■The community is of level 2 for power use.
 
Former Planning of Power Supply for the Residence Community
■The transformation and distribution power station is installed at the underground garage, to supply power to each building by low-voltage cables.
■2 dry-type transformers are installed.
■The radius of low-voltage power supply is about 150 meters on the average.
 
Integrated Planning for the Residence Community
■The community stil is supplied by 1 line of 10kV power that forms trunk power supply.
■1 Chinese-type transformer substation (outdoor) with small volumn is installed for each building in the community.
■A diesel generator is installed at the underground garage as a backup power to supply for each building by low-voltage cables.
■The radius of low-voltage power supply is about 20 meters on the average.

From the comparison above, integrated planning for the factory can be characterized as following:
■The total project costs are 85% of those of the former planning, saving 103.6-88.3=15.3 (10,000 Yuan)
■The total annual losses and total operating costs are 77% of those of the former planning, saving 11.7-9.0=2.7 (10,000 Yuan) per year;
■The comprehensive efficiency evaluation for 5-year operating costs: CT can be saved by 162.1-133.3=28.8 (10,000 Yuan) (calculated by 0.75 Yuan per kWh);
■The comprehensive efficiency evaluation for 10-year operating costs: CT can be saved by 220.6-178.3=42.3 (10,000 Yuan) (calculated by 0.75 Yuan per kWh);
■The total project costs for 10-year operating are 88.3 (10,000 Yuan), saving 42.3 (10,000 Yuan).
