Improving HVAC System Efficiency

I’ve been revisiting some system design strategies to enhance energy efficiency, particularly in commercial settings. Recently, I implemented variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems in a mid-sized office complex, and the reduction in energy consumption has been impressive — about 30% savings compared to traditional setups. I’m curious to hear what innovative designs or technologies others are seeing success with in their projects.
