Photovoltaics
Recently photovoltaics (PV) were installed on the roof of MacKimmie Tower, which generate on-site electricity of over 130kW, combined with the 45kW of building-integrated PV on the skin of the Hunter Student Commons. Additionally, the roof of the Hunter Student Commons is designed to receive over an additional 350kW of PV, bringing the total on-site generation to over 525kW, which meets 20-25% of MacKimmie Complex's total energy demand.
