SMART ENERGY
CERN is committed to limiting its increase in electricity consumption to 5% up to the end of Run 3 (baseline year: 2018*). To do so, CERN takes a comprehensive approach, carefully considering and evaluating every possible energy-saving activity to ensure complementary and maximum impact.
Examples of our challenges in Smart Energy
- Building thermal insulation and air thickness
- Standardization of efficient technical systems
- District heating renovation and improvement
- Centralized chilled water systems
- Gas consumption optimization
- Efficiency of heating networks
- Reduction of network losses
- Lighting time control
- Lighting level control
- Limitation of the power in renovation
