Landmark University uses energy sourced from the national grid and also from other sources like the solar power. A look into the amount of energy used as a university is as follows:
Electricity consumption of the University from the national grid = 1 megawatt = 86.4 GJ (gigajoules)
Amount of electricity from the generating set = 0.8 megawatt = 69.12 GJ
Low carbon-source = 1.15 megawatts = 99.36 GJ
Total energy used = (1+0.8+1.15) = 2.95 megawatts
On a 24-hour basis, 2.95 megawatts = 254.88 GJ
Percentage of low-carbon used by the university community is equal to:
Low-carbon energy used × 100
Total energy used
= 99.36 GJ × 100
254.66 GJ
= 38.98%
This shows that 38.98% of energy used in the University community comes from low-carbon energy sources
