Dubai Knowledge Village Reduces Energy Consumption
DUBAI — Dubai Knowledge Village, the region’s premier destination for human resources management and a member of TECOM Investments, on Wednesday announced it has successfully brought down its water consumption by 6.1 million gallons from January to June 2009 and energy usage by 1,904 MWh during the same period.
The cluster’s achievement was the outcome of a step-by-step exercise carried out jointly by TECOM Investments’ Sustainable Energy and Environment Division (SEED) and cluster’s Facility Management. Amongst other measures, Dubai Knowledge Village retrofitted wash basins with ultra low flow restrictors to achieve a flow rate of 0.5 US gpm, a reduction of 80 per cent over the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) standards. Dr. Ayoub Kazim, Executive Director, Dubai Knowledge Village, said: “As the region’s premier destination for human resources management, we recognise our responsibility to the community and the environment, for shaping a better and healthier future for new generations.”
“This initiative comes as part of our efforts to conserve the environment and mitigate air pollution.” —
