According to the application for a Gold certificate, the building meets LEED qualifications with a system to use rainwater and a treatment system to use recycled water for the garden. This system reduces water consumption by about 43.2 per cent compared with buildings of the same size without it.
The building is also designed to reduce energy consumption by about 18.75 per cent compared with structures lacking its innovations.
"We can save energy by using LEDs [light-emitting diodes], a daylight sensor system, and solar cells. Our energy-saving system is designed to support our strategy to cut energy costs and reduce [emissions of carbon dioxide] from the building into the environment," Pannavadee said.
