The school aggressively uses clean energy like no others in Taiwan, 6 of 3 KW wind turbines generates estimated volume of 18KW, which will account for 5% of school substitute power. BIPV solar power system, generating estimated volume of 10.5 KW, will account for another 12%. It was set under consideration of alternative shelter usage, where we wish wind and solar power will supplement the use of electricity during typhoon season. In regular days, energy monitoring system, displaying figures of power usage and clean energy generation, is helping teachers and students aware of the importance of energy-saving, part of energy education.
Upon covering with the context of local environment and culture, combining energy-saving technologies, it is the future we would like for sustainable architecture, and importantly, eco school practice.
