Coefficients 1 thru 4 for your Pump:VariableSpeed objects are 0, 1, 0, 0, respectively. This may be your issue. I don't know if there is a repository for variable speed pump curves available anywhere, but I'd try running it with a coefficient of 0, 0.5, 0.5, 0, respectively. This ought to approximate the electric output of a variable speed pump well-enough to know if this is the reason for your energy consumption issue.

Edit: In addition, at least with this configuration of your chilled water loop you may need to change the "Chiller Flow Mode" on your chiller to "LeavingSetpointModulated" in order to allow the flow to vary through the chiller.
