The Universitat Politècnica de València gradually installs LEDs in the buildings and outside the campuses. In addition to equipping newly built spaces with LEDs and changing the lights each time a space is subject to renovation, priority is being given to replacement based on energy consumption.
Thus, the plan contemplates the gradual installation according to the following stages:
- circulation areas: corridors
- common areas: in addition to corridors, lobbies and toilets.
- general services: center libraries, administration areas, etc.
- teaching spaces: classrooms and laboratories
- workspaces: offices
Furthermore, the UPV campuses already have LEDs in all outdoor spaces, outdoor sports facilities, and underground car parks.
You can check below the current status of the installation in the different campuses of the UPV:
ALCOY CAMPUS
| Carbonell Building | LEDs in common areas and library |
| Ferrandiz Building | LEDs in common areas |
| Viaducto Building | without LEDs |
| Sports pavilion | without LEDs |
CAMPUS OF GANDIA
| Building A | LEDs in circulation areas and classrooms |
| Building B | LEDs in common areas (incomplete) |
| Building D | without LEDs |
| Building E | without LEDs |
| Building F | without LEDs |
| Building G | LEDs in common areas (incomplete) |
| Building H | LEDs in reading rooms |
The Infrastructure Service is responsible for the development of this plan.
