2 PagesCase Study October 2016 Challenge The forty-year-old, two-tower Sun Life Financial Center was operating two connected cooling systems. When Bentall Kennedy identified the need for end-of-life equipment replacement in one of the building's cooling plants, they decided to evaluate the equipment in both towers, seeking to improve efficiency throughout the complex and align with the firm's commitment to sustainability. Solution Working with Halsall, Alliance Engineering and Bentall Kennedy conducted an in-depth design/costing study, using a calibrated building simulation model to evaluate several upgrade scenarios compared to a simple like-for-like replacement. Comparison metrics included energy performance, return on investment and greenhouse gas impact. The study revealed that up
