Constructing Vitality Saving Retrofit in Liu Lian Major College / FORWARD STUDIO
Textual content description offered by the architects. Pingdi Liulian Major College is a faculty scene within the “5 Ones” Vitality Saving and Carbon Discount Mannequin Program in Longgang District. Ahead design, in collaboration with Jianxue Design and CSCEC, mixed energy-saving, carbon-reducing, and zero-carbon applied sciences to finish the renovation of the nation’s first elementary faculty in a PEDF undertaking, and Shenzhen’s first near-zero-energy elementary faculty campus using the renovation of an present constructing.
Constructing a secure, handy, snug, and pure campus. After dozens of years on campus, the present instructing idea of campus can now not meet the present necessities of instructing actions. Lately, Shenzhen has been dedicated to exploring the “near-zero carbon” building path with Shenzhen traits, selling city inexperienced and low-carbon improvement, serving to Shenzhen to turn into the primary demonstration normal, to realize the carbon peak carbon impartial goal, Liu Lian Major College has ushered in a brand new turnaround. Earlier than the renovation, the college constructing, school rooms, atrium, backyard, and different venues lacked interplay, whereas there have been issues akin to getting older amenities and gear, mixing of individuals and autos, and inadequate use of house. We hope to plant the seeds of inexperienced within the minds of the scholars via the combination of the zero-carbon idea sooner or later. The renovated campus will turn into an academic, snug, and environmentally pleasant place to review and reside, offering college students with higher academic sources and studying experiences. The poor exterior picture of the campus entrance and the chaotic visitors group is vulnerable to security and visitors issues; Insufficient utilization of open flooring, and lack of ability to satisfy diversified tutorial wants. Carbon sequestration backyard landscapes lack every day tutorial engagement, and lecturers and college students lack high quality house for recess actions.
The purpose of this renovation is exactly to unravel the protection and house utilization issues， and to assist improve the campus into a brand new house that meets the necessities of the brand new syllabus. Along with the combination of data studying and value-based schooling, college students shall be inspired to take part in complete instructing and studying actions akin to interdisciplinary thematic, project-based, and task-based studying. The campus was remodeled by revamping entrances, activating corridors, and opening up flooring. The design additionally intelligently manages the campus safety incident-prone grounds to make sure the protection of personnel via pedestrian and vehicular segregation.
A Low-Carbon, Inexperienced, and Clever Educating Line. The development of a near-zero carbon inexperienced campus is an entire systematic undertaking, which incorporates not solely the development of house but additionally the energy-saving and environmental safety of the expertise, supplies, and gear used on the campus. The design is intricately linked to the inexperienced supplies and gear from CSCEC, and we’ve got organized a low-carbon, inexperienced, and clever instructing line for the campus. The renovation relies on the idea of “gently touching and attaching renewal”, utilizing much less civil engineering and extra metal constructions and maximizing the usage of modular, assembled, prefabricated, and productized building strategies, which shortens the development time whereas considerably lowering vitality consumption and the affect on instructing and studying through the building course of.
Inexperienced Field + Carbon Sequestration Backyard: The metal construction assembled “Inexperienced Field” platform not solely carries the perform of campus zero-carbon demonstration, but additionally supplies photo voltaic vitality and photovoltaic energy era for the campus, and detects vitality consumption information. The Carbon Sequestration Backyard consists of a number of plant modules with excessive carbon sequestration values. Sooner or later, the nursery shall be adopted by lessons and can turn into a automobile for college students’ nature and exercise apply packages, growing their intimate interplay with nature. On this carbon sequestration backyard, inexperienced applied sciences akin to interactive energy turbines, rainwater harvesting techniques, and photovoltaic storage and direct-supply units have been integrated into the inexperienced modules, which can function an necessary node for increasing the instructing and communication house of the campus.
Vitality Dice: Subsequent to the college’s carbon sequestration backyard, there may be one other “Vitality Dice” that integrates photovoltaic energy era, vitality storage, DC energy distribution, and versatile energy consumption – a complete clever vitality field independently researched and developed by CSCEC. It’s the vitality management heart of the whole “Photo voltaic photovoltaic, Vitality storage, Direct present and Flexibility” campus, able to balancing and regulating utility energy, photovoltaic energy era, vitality storage, and constructing energy consumption. Whereas offering environment friendly, secure, and versatile electrical energy for the campus with near-zero vitality consumption, it might probably additionally provide the town and understand “peak shaving and valley filling”, which has an necessary demonstration function in assuaging the strain of city electrical energy consumption.
Close to-zero vitality demonstration constructing: It selects new supplies akin to high-efficiency insulating rock wool, double-layer hole Low-E glass, and horizontal sunshade modeling to improve the enclosure system, scale back constructing vitality consumption, and considerably enhance indoor thermal consolation.
Knowledge Bookstore: The renovation of libraries and school rooms makes full use of DC gear and AI clever techniques to cut back the vitality consumption of indoor gear, whereas on the identical time penetrating the good campus into the small print and implementation. In the entire inexperienced campus transformation, the applying of the “clever mind” is indispensable. Via clever sensors and metering units, real-time, categorized, and itemized monitoring of campus vitality consumption and mastering of campus carbon emissions are carried out, which empowers the college to visualise, optimize, and handle information on manufacturing capability.
Activation of Zero Carbon Campus. After the completion of the renovation of the Sensible Campus of Liu Lian Major College, it might probably save 28,000kWh of electrical energy yearly, and scale back 13 tons of CO₂ emissions, which is equal to planting 3,250 timber; The entire campus makes full use of photovoltaic sources to steadily improve energy era by 5%-30%, realizing an annual energy era of 145,000 kWh for the constructing, growing the utilization fee of renewable vitality by 53.77%, and realizing self-sufficiency in campus electrical energy consumption.
