Abstract

This article analysed the factor impacts on the energy usage of hospitals in Thailand by investigating on 14 hospitals, which were accountable for about 7 % of the energy usage of all hospitals in Thailand. Hospital buildings utilized electricity as high as 90 % of all the entire energy usage due to medical electric equipment and various electric systems in the hospitals. Multiple linear regression has been executed to find the relationship between electrical energy consumption and various essential variables. As a result, the developed model could be used to forecast energy consumption, and find which factor has the most impact on energy consumption in hospitals.
