GREEN STEPS FOR A GREENER CAMPUS

For METU, the greening of the environment is a sine qua non of ecological responsibility.  Using the experiences of METU Ankara, we aim to become a “Green Campus” at North Cyprus, through various practices and activities including research in related fields.  The solar power plant, designed to produce 20% of the electrical energy need of the Campus, started operating in 2016. The goals envisaged and set by METU Northern Cyprus Campus include reducing the average energy consumption by a minimum of 10% in a five-year period; thereby reducing the carbon footprint as well as the solid waste of the Campus. Our greenery projects include reducing lighting energy consumption by 30%, minimizing water consumption, and “Bike First” and “Share the Road” initiatives.  There is no doubt that the active involvement of students in all these activities and initiatives has been the primary driving force in creating an exemplary Green Campus.
