Cooling system give the highest contribution in e electricity consumption especially in a building for commercial usage. The shortage resource of raw materials causes the researchers and engineers do research in finding the ways on how to reduce the energy consumption in cooling system. Centralized air conditioner and split air conditioner is the most type of air conditioner use nowadays. However, according to previous research, it seen that split air conditioner contributes more saving in terms of electricity usage as well as economic savings compared to centralized air conditioner. Unfortunately, centralized air conditioner is the most usage in commercial building compared to split air conditioner. Scheduling technique is one of the most popular techniques that are always applied in centralized air conditioner in controlling the energy usage by controlling its temperature setting. Hence, this project will investigate the possibility of split air conditioner either can apply the scheduling technique or not.
