Green accommodation

Returning students interested in sustainability and energy efficiency may want to apply for accommodation in the 'Green Building' at David Russell Apartments and Fife Park.

The green building has metering for heat and electricity per en suite apartment. You will be able to track your energy data online and see how you compare to other apartments in the building. Residents will be encouraged to reduce consumption.

A target for energy use will be set, and if the building meets these targets Residential and Business Services will make a donation to a charity of the residents' choice. There may also be further environmental initiatives trialled in these apartments.

How to apply

When you apply as a returning student, request 'Green Building' under the 'Further Preferences Options' on the accommodation application form.
