Baseline
- Electrical Energy consumption was 3,369,940 kWh in the base year.
- Non- Renewable Electricity Consumption was 1,484,204 kWh in the base year.
- Total diesel consumption was 21853 liter in the base year.
- Total LPG consumption was 133959 liter in the base year.
- CO2 emission was 6345 Tonnes in the base year.
- CO2/FTE was 2.588Tonne/FTE in the base year.
Target
- To reduce carbon emissions from campus-wide energy usage by 25%.
- To put the university on a path consistent with a reduction in carbon emissions through energy management in building usage, with 50% reduction in emissions from lighting and 25% reduction from air conditioning
Policy Statement
We aspire to a long-term ambition to be carbon neutral from energy use by 2035.
Implementation Mechanisms
- Develop and implement a Carbon Management Plan (CMP), which includes a roadmap to carbon reductions with appropriate targets and key performance indicators (KPIs).
- Implement energy efficiency and green measures in all new projects and buildings.
- Apply in a gradual manner energy efficient standards to existing buildings.
- Use an electricity incentive scheme to provide a financial incentive for schools and units to reduce their electricity use.
- Work with academics to use their expertise in solving problems and implementing effective solutions.
- Monitor and analyze energy and carbon data and provide relevant information to colleges and units.
- Raise student and employee awareness and invest in their training.
- Review the operation of heating and cooling to ensure needs are met efficiently.
- Install sub meters where appropriate for energy audit purposes.
Key Performance Indicators
- Carbon emissions from energy use (Tonnes).
- Carbon emissions from energy use per staff and student (Tonnes/FTE).
- Carbon emissions from energy use per total budget (Tonnes/JD).
- Percentage of energy generated from onsite renewable or low carbon sources (%).
- Percentage saving of Electricity and Fuel (%).
Challenges
- Lack of data.
- Financial Resources
- Existing behavior and culture.
