Sustainability Renovated
The recent renovation utilized energy performance modelling in accordance with the Queen鈥檚 Design Building Standards, and energy performance targets aligned with the university鈥檚 Climate Action Plan.
With the installation of a new variable-speed kitchen exhaust with hood sensors, unnecessary ventilation caused when kitchen equipment not in use is reduced by approximately 60%. The sensors determine which cooking stations are in use and limiting the amount of fresh make-up air headed through fossil fuels required.
This new feature will help reduce the overall GHG emissions by around 200 tonnes CO2e/year, equivalent to the emissions of 100 Kingston houses. Major investments such as these in mechanical systems are the key to achieving the targets in Queen鈥檚 Climate Action Plan.
