New energy-efficient student hall built at Girton College, University of Cambridge

Improving energy efficiency in the built environment is a key factor in cutting CO2 emissions and boosting energy efficiency. This exact concept was recently demonstrated by Balfour Beatty, who have created one of the UK’s most energy-efficient student halls at Girton College, University of Cambridge.

The state of the art building gets half of its energy supply from renewable sources and its design outperforms Part L2A building efficiency guidelines by 40%, the company has revealed. The facility even includes “smart” measures such as window sensors to automatically disable heating at the right temperature.

HeatingSave – slash energy bills and cut carbon emissions in a fast and easy way

Replacing your central heating clock with a HeatingSave energy and boiler management controller is the quickest way of beating those tariff rises and saving on energy costs, often paying for itself in less than a year but almost always in less than 3 years.

HeatingSave can cut your energy usage by 20% to 30% with its building energy management system, as its internal microprocessor constantly calculates and improves the efficiency and savings of your central heating system.

Using HeatingSave, simply choose the room temperature and the hot water you want, and when, and HeatingSave does the rest. It works with all central heating systems – oil, gas or coal – and links up with a PC to produce reports and graphs to fashion a powerful and complete energy management system.

The system is backed by the Carbon Trust and the Energy Savings Trust.
