1. All new campus buildings of NCUE were constructed in accordance with Taiwan’s Building Act and related standards and cost more than NT$50 million. These were granted the ‘Green Building Label’ qualification or above in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations. To pass the requisite assessments and obtain the Green Building Label or Green Building Candidate Certificate under Taiwan’s Green Building Label system, a building must meet the two mandatory indictors of daily energy saving and water resources, and two other optional indicators (from a list of seven indicators). Since 2003, the school has constructed and completed four new buildings and obtained Green Building Certificates for them:

2. Among the nine major criteria for the Green Building Label listed below, the indicators for water resources have been thoroughly implemented for all our new buildings. To save water resources in buildings on the two campuses, replacing appliances with water-saving ones was adopted.

2.1 Utilisation of water-saving appliances: These include new types of taps and water-saving faucets, water-saving and dual-stage flushing toilet bowls, water-saving shower heads, and sensing systems for automatic flushing.

2.2 Installation of rainwater-storage and water-supply system: Rainwater is intercepted and stored by making use of the natural terrain or artificial methods, before being subjected to simple purification treatments and reused as miscellaneous domestic water. The reutilisation of rainwater serves as an alternative supplementary water source for domestic water, a water storage source for firefighting, and a way to help reduce peak loads during urban floods.

2.3 All the above items have been implemented in NCUE's new buildings.
