Appendix 5: Electrical Load Assessment

This document summarizes the electrical load assessment for the outline development control plan of St. James's Hospital. It outlines the existing site area and buildings to be demolished or relocated. It then calculates the additional buildings and new total area. Electrical loads are calculated for lighting, small power, mechanical cooling, and mechanical equipment based on area. The total maximum demand is calculated at 13.54 MW with 25% allowance for future expansion. The existing CHP capacity is subtracted from the total to determine the power required from the grid at 13.5 MVA.
