Overview
The University pursues energy efficiency as both an operational discipline and an educational commitment, suited to the high cooling demand of its climate.
The University pursues this goal across its teaching, its scientific research, its campus operations and its service to the community. The sections below set out how it delivers the goal, the activities held during the year, the research its academics published, and the policies that underpin its commitment.
How the University delivers this goal
- Applies a campus-wide energy-efficiency standard to equipment, renovations and new builds.
- Conducts regular energy reviews and audits to find and reduce waste.
- Operates a carbon-management approach addressing the high cooling demand of its climate.
- Embeds energy efficiency and clean energy in its curricula and community education.
- Offers research and expert input on clean-energy and energy-efficient technology.
Activities in 2023/24
- An energy-conservation programme covering air-conditioning, lighting and office equipment continued to reduce consumption across University buildings, supported by staff awareness and routine monitoring.
