Powerhub Install Coolnomix Across Greenwich University Campus to Reduce Energy Consumption by 23%
The University of Greenwich studies cutting down on energy costs
Innovation & Infrastructure
Greenwich University, an institution with ambitions of becoming Net Zero by 2030, understanding the negative challenges we face from climate change. The University is targeting carbon reductions throughout the site, and have already made impressive progress so far, initiatives have spanned across reducing CO2 emissions by 62% from the 2009/10 baseline, installing 150 solar panels on campuses, and introducing the GREen Rewards app with over 1,500 users, just to name a few.
The University are investing to make their Net Zero targets a reality. Installing Air & ground source heat pumps is helping to cut gas consumption by 66%. Low flow cisterns were also installed in new and refurbished buildings, and an investment of over £430,000 was made in 2021 to fit innovative sensory heaters in accommodation blocks that automatically detects when rooms are empty to save energy.
They want students and other key stakeholders to help make a difference. By introducing the ‘Make Your Change’ campaign it’s encouraging people to make a difference no matter how small the action.
How Coolnomix is driving change at The University of Greenwich
Powerhub have relished the opportunity to help impact the push for a sustainable future at Greenwich University, by implementing Coolnomix technology.
Greenwich University, after a successful pilot project, are installing 124 Coolnomix energy saving units across their air conditioning (AC) estate across 3 campus at Medway, Avery Hill & Bathway and at Greenwich. Coolnomix is a globally patented, innovative, retrofit, energy reduction device that reduces energy consumption and C02 emissions when installed on air conditioning and refrigeration equipment without affecting the performance or output of the AC units.
The technology is designed to payback within a period of 12 – 18 months and with an expected lifespan of 10 + years it will continue to deliver financial and carbon savings for the University for many years to come.
