     According to Kasetsart University’s announcement, energy conservation policy has been established as guidelines for all departments within the University for the efficient use of electricity, which is the main energy source in the operation of the university’s activities. Various measures are determined, such as the environmentally friendly design of buildings or structures or smart building using the Building Automation System (BAS) to manage energy within the building along with raising awareness of students and personnel in matters of energy conservation together with the policy of using more energy efficient electrical appliances to reduce energy consumption with the goal to replace 80 percent of all electrical appliances.
     Finding alternative energy sources is another measure to reduce the use of electricity from fossil sources, such as Solar Power, Wind Power, Clean Biomass, Biogas, with a focus on being clean and environmentally friendly as well as indirectly reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

[2.3] Smart Building implementation.

Kasetsart University renovated buildings into ‘Smart Building’ by using Building Automation System (BAS). The BAS will automatically control air conditioning, lighting, fire control, access control, security andelevator control system.

Kasetsart University is aware of the design of the new construction, with the objective of being a smart building. The important thing is that the building must respond to the user as completely as possible. Choosing the right technology for users, there are three principles for consideration, namely: economic worthiness, social needs and environmental friendly. Therefore, it can be considered that the smart building is designed appropriately.

Kasetsart University has a goal of designing of smart building by using the capabilities of the entire building system, to meet the needs of users for more convenient, having a better overall environment, and be able to maintenance very well and efficiently. In response to, today’s rapidly changing of technology and environment.

Indoor energy management systems will be more required in the future. In order to meet the increase of energy efficiency even more. Kasetsart University uses the Building Automation System (BAS) together with raising awareness for students and personnel to save energy. Resulting in 5-10% reduction in electric power usage. Currently, there is an Internet of Energy system. The application of IoT-Internet of Things, and energy conservation systems, will help increase energy efficiency, according to the changing environment. The Internet of Energy system consists of a network of smart devices, which has sensors, transceiver, and micro Artificial  Intelligence (AI), which can communicate among themselves through communication systems such as the internet and  automatically perform operations.
