DOHA: Qatar General Elec-tricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa) has invited entries for its annual ‘conserving building competition’. The contest is part of the national programme for conservation and energy efficiency — Tarsheed.
The competition launched by Conservation and Energy Efficiency Department, is open to all buildings from industrial, governmental, commercial, and residential sectors. Sports venues are also included this year.
Interested people can apply until February 28 via Kahramaa website km.qa by filling in a registration form. The buildings will be evaluated based on the specific parameters set by the team of qualified experts to test efficient design of Mechanical Electrical & Plumbing (MEP) systems in all buildings which in turn includes HVAC System, lighting, plumbing fixtures, landscape, motion sensors, and BMS.
“Conserving buildings” are buildings that reduce electricity and water consumption, carbon emissions, and provide better living for residents. Kahramaa launched the competition for the first time last year and the winners were honoured at the first anniversary of Tarsheed held in solidarity with the Earth Day.
