Does your university as a body promote a public pledge toward 100% renewable energy (petitions, meetings, discussions, events) beyond the university?
Yes
Digital Building Energy Audits & Simulation Research: Researchers at the university published practical studies utilizing specialized software (such as DesignBuilder) on campus structures and buildings in New Assiut. This research tested building solutions like exterior and interior wall thermal insulation, low-emissivity (Low-E) double glazing, and rooftop photovoltaic (PV) solar systems.
