A Shiny New Green Building
Key environmental features of the building, which has been constructed from recycled materials, sustainable timber and with minimal use of PVC, include:
- Twenty-five percent green power from a gas-fired generator that uses waste heat to run an absorption chiller to cool the building.
- Leading water management systems, including an onsite black water recycling system that treats sewage and uses the recycled water for flushing toilets, with excess water used for irrigation of the adjacent parks and gardens.
- Significantly reduced water consumption through rejection of waste heat in lieu of cooling towers, which eliminates the risk of Legionnaire’s disease.
- Roof-mounted solar panels to heat the building’s water.
- Maximum natural light and air quality by using chilled beam technology, operable high technology facades and sun-shading devices that reduce heat load.
