Solutions & Tech Applied
Panasonic has managed to implement the perfect solution for the different systems under a BMS that manages the climate, DHW, ventilation, photovoltaic collection and the other systems for lighting, irrigation, etc. to make the building almost zero consumption. Also, in recognition of the results achieved, the government has declared the building a mandatory reference building for all government projects and works in Gibraltar in the tertiary sector.
The displacement air-conditioning was achieved by using DX indoor units with ducting and backflow on the floor with air flow speed <1 m/s on the track. The air conditioning of the different rooms for other sports (gyms, squash, darts, bowling...) has been achieved by air handling units and AHUS DX COIL connected to ECOi with recovery and hydrokits to preheat the DHW up to 45 °C totally free of charge on an annual basis. A photovoltaic solar gain system (more than 400 panels) has also been installed to supply energy to the building and feed it into the grid when not in use.
Key Tech Features
The sports centre also hosts non-sporting events, such as concerts.
