Have a policy in place for ensuring all renovations or new builds are following energy efficiency standards.
TKU applies relevant building standards to improve energy efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and avoid energy waste, including：
1. Green building standards: The university stipulates that new (modified) builds must refer to the energy management-related indicators of the national green building standards EEWH (Ecology, Energy, Waste Reduction, Health). From the production of building materials to the planning, design, construction, use, management and demolition of buildings, the minimum consumption of earth resources, the use of the least energy and the manufacture of the least waste acts as the criteria. The first phase of the construction project of the Lanyang Campus of the university was approved by the Ministry of the Interior in September 2006 and issued the green building label; the Hsu Shou-Chlien International Conference Center completed on the Tamsui Campus in 2018 was also awarded a silver-level green building label in May 2019.
2. Green procurement: When purchasing hardware and software equipment, consumables, and construction engineering materials, the university will give priority to manufacturers who can provide the five major green label products: environmental protection labels, energy-saving labels, water-saving labels, green building materials labels, and carbon labels.
3. New and regenerated buildings: According to the resolution of the Campus Planning Committee of the university, no new buildings will be built in the next 5 years (2020-2024). In the future, if there are new construction plans for the Tamsui campus, the Taipei Campus and the Lanyang campus, priority will be given to evaluating the durability of the old buildings and moving towards the principle of space activation and reuse, that is, the reconstruction of the original site will be the main focus, and the non-permeable paving of the campus will not be increased, which can reduce the impact of the campus environment and avoid the waste of building materials resources.
