KONE and BREEAM

Conduct an analysis of the transport

demand for the building to determine

the optimum number and size of lifts,

escalators and moving walks

KONE can provide a dedicated traffic

analysis report using its people flow

expertise and tools

Estimate the energy consumption of

the design elevator, escalator and

moving walks in accordance with ISO

25745 Energy performance of lifts,

escalators and moving walks,

comparing the designed solution with

another system fitted for purpose

KONE can provide energy-efficiency

calculations in accordance with ISO

25745 methodology

Consider the use of regenerative drive

in case where it produces an energy

saving greater than the additional

standby energy used to support the

drives

KONE can provide evidence of the

potential energy savings enabled by

the regenerative drive

Specify the elevator with the lowest

energy consumption

KONE can provide an energy-

efficiency report for its solutions

• Adopt standby solutions for example

for the lifts car lighting, user displays

and ventilation fans

• Adopt car lighting and display

lighting providing an average lamp

efficacy (across all fittings in the car)

of > 55 lamp lumens/circuit watt
• Adopt a drive with variable speed,

variable voltage, and variable

frequency
• Adopt regenerative drive where its

use is demonstrated to save energy,

unless it can be demonstrated that

this is not financially viable,

accounting for payback over the

service life of the installation

KONE can provide technical

information for:

• Standby solutions
• Car lighting lamp efficacy - standby mode
• Drive
• Energy saving enabled by the regenerative drive

Each escalator or moving walk

complies with at least one of the

following:
• It is fitted with a load sensing device

that synchronizes motor output to

passenger demand through a variable

speed drive.
• It is fitted with a passenger sensing

device for automated operation (auto

walk), so the escalator operates in

standby mode when there is no

passenger demand.

KONE escalators feature a variety of

operational modes, including an

automated standby mode for when

there is no passenger demand.

Standby operation reduces energy

consumption and extends the

operational lifespan of the

equipment.
