KU284 Smart Room Heating Controls - Decarbonisation Scheme

Description

Tenders are invited from interested parties for the supply and installation of Smart Room Controls (SRC) within a number of campus buildings at Keele University to increase energy efficiency and decrease costs. One of the core issues that the University needs to overcome to reach its zero-carbon target by 2030 is the heating of rooms that are only used occasionally and often overheated.
Following a successful trial of the technology in an Academic building in 2018 and a pilot in a Halls of Residence in 2020, we intend to install the system in the following University :
Locations
Academic Buildings
• William Smith
• Mackay
• Huxley
• Hornbeam
• Dorothy Hodgkin
• Darwin
• Chancellors A
• Chancellors B
• Chancellors C
Halls of Residence
• Barnes W
The system will typically comprise a wall-mounted controller with PIR allowing the user to select the desired temperature when the room is occupied. This will connect to a self-powered radiator actuator and may also connect to ventilation & air conditioning systems where present.
It is expected that the installation should be completed in all buildings no later than 31st July 2021.
