- University Measures Towards Affordable Clean Energy – Energy Efficiency Plan
The University of Oum El Bouaghi is determined to play a leading role in reducing energy consumption. To that end, it has put in place a well-structured strategy to optimize energy expenditure across its environment. Through energy-saving initiatives such as lighting upgrades, HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) optimization, and smart building technologies, the institution aims to significantly reduce its energy consumption. The university also regularly engages its community, through study days, conferences, and roundtables, on the importance of saving energy to protect the planet and limit the effects of climate change, with the ambition of establishing a lasting culture of sustainability. Performance is tracked continuously to ensure that energy measures are implemented successfully and that the energy agenda delivers, creating a more eco-friendly and economically sustainable campus.
In support of this agenda, the University of Oum El Bouaghi has organized numerous energy-related forums, including events on Parametric BIM modeling and Smart Building technology:
