Energy Efficient Appliances Usage
Description:
Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon has implemented energy conservation through the use of high-efficiency equipment in several areas as follows: 1) Air conditioning: We have installed energy-saving air conditioners that have been certified with the Energy Saving Label No. 5 from the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand, replaced the air conditioners with newer models, installed energy-saving devices in old models, and cleaned the air conditioners regularly. 2) Lighting: We have replaced the old fluorescent lamps with energy-saving LED lamps and installed motion-activated lighting in the bathrooms. 4) Office equipment: We have purchased computers that have been certified with the Energy Star label. 5) Renewable energy: We have installed solar panels to generate some of our own electricity and used solar spotlights outside the building.

Electricity Usage per Year (in Kilowatt hour)
Total Electricity Usage (All Locations) during June 2022 to May 2023 (Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon: RMUTP), Thailand)
Description:
The total electricity usage of Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon (RMUTP) during June 2022 to May 2022 is 7,135,185 kWh. On the five main centers (campuses) areas of RMUTP, electricity is used for lighting, cooling, heating and laboratory appliances. The total university’s population is 11,717 and hence, the electricity usage per person in all campuses is 608.96 kWh.
Ratio of renewable energy production divided by total energy usage per year

Renewable Energy | Production (in kWh) | |
Solar panel | 80,315 kWh | |
Hot water system | 36,500 | |
Total | 116,815 kWh |
Total electricity usage during June 2022 to May 2022 is 7,135,185 kWh.
Ratio of renewable energy production divided by total energy usage per year
Renewable Electricity usage = ((80,315+36,500)/7,135,185) *100 = 1.64 %
Elements of green building implementation as reflected in all construction and renovation policies
Greenhouse gas emission reduction program
1. EV Charging station
2. renewable energy
Description:
- EV Charging station to promote Green house gas emission reduction by using EV car.
- Using renewable energy for electricity that reducing purchased.
Please provide the total carbon footprint (CO2 emission in the last 12 months, in metric tons)
Example of Total Carbon Footprint (UI GreenMetric)
Description:
The total carbon footprint per year is 5,999.75 metric tons and the total carbon footprint per year per person is 5,999.75/11,717 = 0.51 metric tons.
