An approximate 25% annual energy saving

The Hong Kong Jockey Club's new Communications & Technology Centre called: Shatin Communications & Technology Centre (SCTC), designed by Arquitectonica, was planned and designed with sustainability in mind from the very beginning. The SCTC building provides excellent internal environment conditions, natural daylight in office spaces and open views towards the race course.

The building

The new 51,000m² development provides a world-class working environment with great emphasis placed on achieving a good rating using realistic measures with the least cost uplift that truly reduce the impact of the building in terms of energy, water and waste.

The requirement

An approximate 25% annual energy saving.

The solution

An approximate 25.7% annual energy saving is achieved in the SCTC building by reducing the demand through passive means. The metal backed SilverScreen products have contributed significantly to this achievement and it has resulted in a LEED Gold certification, a BEAM Plus Gold certification and the 2016 ASHRAE Regional XIII Technology Award. Nicedrape in Hong Kong and China is Verosol's partner and has produced and installed all blinds for this project.
