We evaluate the location and the surroundings of the school for its environmental impacts and benefits.

Site Aspects include:

• School location
• Emissions from the school
• Greenery
• School amenities

We keep track of the sustainability of materials getting in (purchasing) and out (waste disposal) of the school.

Materials and Waste Aspects include:

• Selection of durable goods
• Sustainability of consumables
• Waste reduction and management

The Energy Use aspects comprehensively evaluate the energy sources and uses in a school. We compare energy performance of schools with suitable efficiency benchmarks through professional audits and computational tools, and we tailor energy saving solutions for them.

Energy Use includes:

• Energy performance benchmarking
• Recommendation and implementation of energy management opportunities
• Continuous energy saving improvement

The Water Use aspects improve water use efficiency and water quality in a building, ensuring the safety and security of water in a school.

Water Use includes: 

• Water conservation
• Water quality management
• Effluent management

We perform an all-rounded examination on the Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) in a school based on its design, operation and management for the health, comfort, as well as the well-being of the occupants. 

Indoor Environmental Quality includes:

• Occupant satisfaction
• Ventilation
• Thermal comfort
• Hygiene
• Indoor air quality
• Lighting quality
• Acoustics and noise

Management assesses the policies, procedures and strategies implemented to ensure the sustainability design and operation of a school. 

Management includes:

• Green procurement policy
• Environmental, health and safety, and energy management
• Environmental, social and governance (ESG) disclosure of the management
• Staff training
• Operation and maintenance
• IAQ management for renovation
• Cleaning and pest control

We will enhance the sustainability of schools using innovative technologies or solutions. These solutions include but not limited to

• Internet of Things (IoT) networks for energy performance, water use and IEQ real-time monitoring
• State-of-the-art energy recovery and renewable energy systems
• Smart lighting solution to enhance lighting efficiency, quality and comfort
