Sustainable AASTMT

Total Energy Used for all AASTMT campuses in 2021/2022

1. Energy Density for AAST

The energy consumption of AAST is calculated first for each campus then the total consumption for all AASTMT campuses are computed.Table 1 shows the energy consumption during 2022 for all buildings and all branches in Alexandria.

Table 1 Analysis of Energy consumption/unit area for Alexandria branches

Similarly,  the 2022 total energy consumption in all AAST branches overall Egypt is shown in Table 2. The energy consumption of all AAST branches and the respective energy consumption percentage are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, respectively. It is clear that most of energy consumption in AASTMT branches occurs in Alexandria campuses since they include the highest capacity of buildings, students and staff.

Table3 shows the total energy in GJ and energy density in all AASTMT branches allover EGYPT. It is worth noting that more than 267 GJ were supplied from renewable energy resources which realizes AASTMT goals to divert to clean energy, reduce emissions and sustain serving the Environment.

2. Renewable Energy Resources

The energy supply mainly from national grid in addition to some PV Plant in average 200kw installed on campus buildings. The national grid has 20% renewable energy according to National renewable energy Authority (NREA report 2022) as illustrated in Figure 3. Hence the total renewable energy resources in AAST consumption represents around 21.38%
