Energy saving


LIBERTON HIGH SCHOOL
JUST GOT GREENER


Carbon emissions from Liberton High School have been more than halved from this morning.

Our new highly efficient gas boilers came on line this morning and are now providing the heating and hot water for the school.
Natural gas produces approximately 43% of the carbon dioxide of coal per BTU produced. This added to the other energy saving measures which have recently been completed within the school – cavity wall insulation, and the installation of energy efficient fluorescent tubes and automatic switching of lights – should see major savings in energy costs and the lower production of ‘greenhouse gases’.
