How is Space City Eco-friendly?
1. We only buy materials locally, it reduces the amount of carbon used from transporting them.
2. By making sure all equipment is 5 or more star energy rate.
3. In all the buildings have good insulation, so in the winter inside keeps warm and in the summer inside keeps cool.
4. We have compost, recycling and rubbish bins, so no littering!
5. Having LED lights
6. No air-conditioning instead high ceilings, ceilings fans and cold water features inside.
7. Some buildings under ground because it is easier to control the temperature in the ground.
8. One side of the roof on buildings have solar panels and the other is shaded to keep the inside as cool as possible.
9. Having Solar Panels and making sure they are facing north on a 30 degree angle. Because that’s where you get best energy.
10. Having wind turbines, making sure we have a range of 30 – 50 meters high. Because that’s the best height for the most wind.
11. Having rain water tanks so we can use that water for the bathrooms and a filter so we can filter the water so it’s usable for dishwashers and taps.
