• No leaky buckets – conserve the energy that is
inside the buildinginside the building.
• No need to recreate – Heating and cooling
ievery time.
• Recycled –Heating & Cooling.
• Use of latent –heat and cold.

Sustainability
Th b ildi i d i d ith ti i i dThe building is designed with energy conservation in mind,
including wind turbines and solar collectors, photovoltaic
cells, raised floors ventilation, and radiant heating and
cooling ceilings.
It will be arguably one of the most environmentally
friendly buildings in the world.

intensity of carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP in
2020 by 40 to 45 percent as compared to the level of 2005.
