The college has been designed sustainably and incorporates various energy efficient systems including Grille’s solar powered Intelivent Solarstore Units. The units were a bespoke circular design, manufactured to meet the aesthetic design requirements of the Architects.
GDL’s Intelivent Solarstore Units harvest solar energy provided from the photovoltaic cells located on top of the Penthouse Turrets. The power generated from the cells allow 24 hour supply or extract ventilation, this is a particularly effective method of increasing the ventilation rate during the summer months or when the room occupancy has reached capacity.
