Project Summary:

This project is an extraordinary model for hospitals to behave as healing environments, not seen in the United States. In a tropical climate, 82 percent of the patient beds are primarily passively cooled and naturally ventilated. The reliance on passive strategies provides significant energy reductions and also connection to daylight and views. Conversion of greywater to potable water is part of a municipal initiative that the hospital benefits from. The single biggest reduction of water consumption was the elimination of cooling load for the naturally ventilated patient wards. The passive strategies demonstrated here are a model for hospitals around the world.
