All materials used in the construction have zero or very low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) levels.
The schools were equipped with low temperature radiators that require 30% less energy to provide the same thermal comfort given their much larger contact surface with the ambient air.
Ceiling radiant panels that allow a more accurate monitoring of power consumption, have been installed in the canteens.
PV solar panels will be installed horizontally on the roof, covering a total area of 57.12 m2.
The kitchen appliances run on electricity and are equipped with an energy optimiser.
