2. University of Zagreb Prof Bojan Baletic, PhD University of Lausanne Delphine Douçot Database for Sustainable Campus Design and Management UGAF, Berlin 2015-03-27

3. DatabaseSUSTAINABLE CAMPUS2010 The Campus database is a University of Zagreb driven project. It was introduced as an idea at the ISCN Shanghai conference in 2010. The favorable responses at the conference lead to the development of a proposal we named the ISCN Guide that would join together two forms of content about sustainable campus design and achievements: - a guidebook for sustainable campus design and - databases of sustainable campus examples and their impact. Presented in Shanghai ISCN Conference Better Campus Better City

4. USER INTRO SUSTAINABILITY AND UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES INSTITUTION MAP CATEGORIES • Context • Universities sustainable units are often searching some new ideas to apply sustainability in their universities. • When they share experiences, they prefer do it based on case studies or theme. • No tools exist to help them doing it efficiently. • What Sustainable Project Database can offer: • A projects database, categorized by different themes or by universities (operation on campus, social well-being, green economic, research, teaching, students involvement) and described according to different criteria (finance, time, catalyst element, difficulties, results,...) • Steps to achieve this goal: • Finish the prototype of app developed by university of Zagreb. • Work on the sorting categories (which themes should appear, what category, which heading should have the project description....). • Fill the app with real case studies of UGAF core group Universities. • Develop the database and invite other UNIVERSITIES LOCATION Campus DBCONCEPT SCHEME2015 LEVEL 3 LEVEL 4 LEVEL 2 DATABASE LEVEL 1 CASE STUDIES REPORT CASE STUDEIS PARTICIPATING UNIVERSITIES

11. 1. TITLE The John Curtin school of medical research 2. DESCRIPTION Representative and expressive design of the building itself, although charged with literal symbolism of DNA structure on the facades, contains a remarkable level of interaction with the quality interior spaces and is a good example of theintegration of principle in the whole design process. Large glass surfaces that create the desired interaction of external and internal social space also serve as passive insulation elements: from the entrance multi levels hall to the small conference spaces for informal gathering and meetings. 3. OBJECTIVES Although the primary intention of the project was to encourage social,professional and scientific interaction between staff, students and visitors as well as spatial use flexibility, project also achieved to harmoniously connects theseaspects with energy sustainability principles. 4. STAKEHOLDERS Campus energy management, students and university staff 5. DURATION / start-end Implementation during building construction, active during building lifespan 6.

12. 1. TITLE Building solar system 2. DESCRIPTION In accordance with new plans, the use of roofs for green roofs and sustainable infrastructure is provided. The largest part of the roof area should be covered with photovoltaic panels; the 20.000 m2 system installed by the end of 2012. on the roofs of EPFL, will be the largest solar park in Switzerland. 3. OBJECTIVES Maximizing use of building roof surfaces for collecting solar energy 4. STAKEHOLDERS Campus energy management 5. DURATION / start-end 6. CONTEXT Reduction measures of building energy consumption has been gradually evolved through three building phases of the campus. New and improved construction elements and installations were continuously introduced as well as taking into account the orientation of the buildings. All new buildings follow the Swiss standard "MINERGIE", which is more strict than the usual legal standard by 30%. 7. REALISATION STEPS Unknown at the moment 8. BUDGET Unknown at the moment 9.

13. 1. TITLE Roofscape 2. DESCRIPTION As building technology evolves and building technical requirements increase, the landscape of the roof is being drastically modified. The roofscape is becoming an integral part of the urban infrastructure system: how much can be produced locally using, for example windmills at building scale, photovoltaic and solar collectors (for hot water). 3. OBJECTIVES Green roof will help reduce the heat island effect, thereby minimising the amount of energy needed to cool the interior spaces.Green Roof will provide a significant contribution to the stormwater management plan. 4. STAKEHOLDERS Campus energy management, students and university staff 5. DURATION / start-end Implementation during building construction, active during building lifespan 6. CONTEXT Historically, steeples were the dominant elements of the campus skyline. A major challenge to high performing roofscape is how it will redefine the built skyline. 7. REALISATION STEPS Preliminary studies for optimizing Green Roof and Photovoltaic (PV) recommend that: 25% of roof space for PV. Cover 66% mechanical area roofwith P.V., Cover south facing mech penthouse with P.V. 50% PhotovoltaicCoverage on top floor (south facades).Preliminary studies for optimizing Green Roof and Photovoltaic (PV) recommend that: 40% of roof areas not dedicated to mechanical penthouse will be used for green roof. 8. BUDGET Unknown at the moment 9. RESULTS New urban identity, reducing heat island effect, reducing building eating and cooling energy, landscape use of rooftops 10.

14. 1. TITLE Sheep on campus 2. DESCRIPTION To cut the lawn, UNIL mandates two shippers that bring their sheep to be used as lawn mower. They are used to maintain 12 hectare of meadows. 3. OBJECTIVES The management of UNIL’s Green Space is based on principle of limiting the use of chemical product and promoting biodiversity. In that sens, the eco-mowing by sheep allow to: Reduce the use of machine and weed control products - Reduce the production of waste - Reduce the destruction of soil - Maintain diversified green area and fauna’s micro- and mesohabitats - Let the flora reach its reproductive stage. It also contributes to the bucolic and charming aspect of the campus. 4. STAKEHOLDERS Green spaces staff of University, regional shippers offering that service. 5. DURATION / start-end - 6. CONTEXT University of Lausanne is situated since more than 40 years on a very green area of 90 ha. in the boarder of Geneva Lake. Built on former agricultural land, the respect of the natural environment always took an important place on UNIL’s campus management because it is an important asset for the university and for the quality of life of its users. 7. REALISATION STEPS Define the surface (one or several plots of land) - Define the most adapted species of sheep to work it on – Find qualified staff to take care of sheep (intern or extern) – Ensure of fulfilling the regulatory conditions about livestock detention – Ensure suited infrastructures and enough supply before winter – Define the cost, that could greatly vary (in UNIL farmers are paid to come lawning) - Establish a contract including responsibility, duration and all the above points- Ensure the monitoring of the system (regular meeting, report,...) 8. BUDGET For 130’000m2 of pasture, 37 plots of land and 4 sheeps’ herds, the anual cost if CHF 80’000.- (about CHF 0.60 per m2) 9. RESULTS - 10. CONTACT Delphine Douçot, sustainable deputy.
