It was administered and overseen by the Alliance for Energy Efficient Economy (AEEE) and the Centre for Chronic Disease Control (CCDC). This paper captures the authors&#8217; on-ground survey experience and transferable learning, typically precluded from technical survey reports. The authors believe that given the challenges in collecting relevant energy data from the buildings sector, their experiences can offer a unique insight into the on-ground realities of collecting technical data and suggest transferrable learnings that can help make future commercial building energy consumption surveys quicker, less cumbersome, less costly, and more effective.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b14a0bd elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b14a0bd\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-db38548\" data-id=\"db38548\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22990f7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"22990f7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Keywords<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d819036 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d819036\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>Hospital, Commercial Building, Energy Efficiency, Survey, Data \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e02f560 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"e02f560\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-md\" href=\"https:\/\/energiseindia.in\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Hospital-Energy-Consumption-Survey.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download Article<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-79318b2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"79318b2\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-47f8ee1\" data-id=\"47f8ee1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c26dea0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c26dea0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">References<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-534e48d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"534e48d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ol>\n \t<li>GoI, &#8220;India&#8217;s Updated First Nationally Determined Contribution Under Paris Agreement (2021-2030),&#8221; UNFCCC, 2022.<\/li>\n \t<li>MoEFCC, &#8220;India&#8217;s long-term low-carbon development strategy.,&#8221; Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Government of India, 2022.<\/li>\n \t<li>A.
