 SUSTAINABLE CAMPUS

A “fully mature” approach to

university sustainability may be
summarized as “one in which the
activities of a university are
ecologically sound, socially and
culturally just and economically
viable”. [1,2]

A Web-based online campus energy

management system (CEMS) was
developed for monitoring all
buildings and all power
transformer stations in the
campus, covering all energy and
water resource consumption data.
100% of the Irrigation water on
campus comes from non-tap-water
sources. Saving water resource of
300,000 T/a
