Number of Innovative Programs in Energy and Climate Change

National Chiayi University has implemented 7 innovative energy and climate change programs as part of the “Building of Smart Water Resource Management and Innovative Water-Saving Technology” project. These innovative programs include the 

1. Desilting Project for the Detention Pond:

        The desilting work for the detention pond on campus, aimed at achieving both flood prevention and landscape recreation functions, was funded by a total of $ 309,613 (USD), provided as a subsidy by the Nantou Branch of the Department of Rural Development and Soil and Water Conservation under the Ministry of Agriculture.

2. Indoor Air quality monitoring systems:

        These monitors display real-time metrics such as CO₂ levels, temperature, and humidity, enabling quick adjustments to ensure a comfortable and healthy indoor environment. Furthermore, as the university upgrades to high-efficiency (Grade 1) chiller units, air boxes are installed to increase ventilation, helping maintain optimal air quality within the buildings.

3. Data Transmission and Storage of the Management Platform: This system efficiently collects and stores water usage and resources data, allowing for better management and analysis.

4. Visualization Information Platform: This platform provides a visual interface for monitoring water resource data, enabling more straightforward interpretation and decision-making.

5. Instant Alerts: Real-time alert systems notify campus managers of any water usage anomalies, helping to address leaks or inefficiencies quickly.

6. Mobile App Support (Android/iOS): A dedicated app allows users to access water management data on mobile devices, enhancing accessibility and response times.

7. Rainwater Harvesting System: This system collects rainwater for reuse, reducing dependence on external water supplies and contributing to resource conservation.
