Centro Tecnológico – Campus Independencia
Servicio Nacional de Adiestramiento en Trabajo Industrial (SENATI), an institution providing education and training to the industrial manufacturing sector, has opened a new educational facility in the Independencia district of Lima. The 10-story Centro Tecnológico – Campus Independencia expands SENATI’s educational offerings.
Aligned with SENATI’s commitment to lowering its environmental impact and reducing its carbon footprint, the building utilizes resource-efficient design features and technologies. LED lighting, an energy-efficient air conditioning system and roof insulation reduce the building’s energy use, while dual-flush water closets, water-efficient urinals and low-flow faucets reduce the building’s water use.
The building was developed by sustainability consultant EFIZITY, construction was managed by Binswanger Perú and the resource-efficient technologies were installed by ENGIE.
Centro Tecnológico – Campus Independencia has received EDGE Advanced certification from GBCI.
