Universities and Colleges 1.Crisis? What Crisis? [It is for real] 2.How will this affect our institution? 3.Developing a Strategic Approach 4.Invest now in Utilities Infrastructure 5.Decentralised Energy on Campus

By 2050 we must cut CO 2 emissions by 7 GtC with a 1.3 GtC cut by 2025, against projectedBusiness as Usual ppm 450 ppm °C Global Carbon Emissions, GtC WRE 1000 (IPCC) WRE 550 (IPCC) WRE 450 (IPCC) 1000 ppm 2100 range Further rises to Global Carbon Emissions, GtC GtC reduction Facts & Trends IPCC Scenarios GtC reduction Facts & Trends 9 GtC world BAU Pathways to 2050 Projections & Required Reductions

Whats needed? 1.Interested, Enthusiastic People 2.Senior Management Support 3.Allocation of Resources (Money) PLUS … Some Measure of Luck / Timing!

Edinburgh: University in the City … invested £12million in Decentralised Energy / CHP Pollock Halls 526kWe CHP Kings Bldgs 2.7MWe CHP George Sq 1.6MWe CHP

Edinburghs 3 CHP Projects 1.Pollock Halls: 526kWe engine serving student residences as lead boiler – The Kings Buildings: 2.7MWe engine displaced old steam system + 2 new 7.5MW LTHW boilers serving high base load – George Square: 1.6MWe engine again replaced steam system – plus 75 tonne Heat Store and 600kW Absorption Chiller to even out load – 2005

UK Energy Flows – 50% wasted

Combined Heat and Power

George Sq: Trigeneration

George Square Energy Centre

George Sq buildings now linked:

First remove old steam boilers…
