Green tiger
Scandium Kinnisvara is the founder of the Green Tiger representative organization and an ardent green fan. We believe that the real driving force in the Estonian economy is vigilant companies because making the right decisions for companies in terms of consumption volumes is even more important than at the individual level.
Green tiger in the green house
At Scandium Park, we take green thinking to a new level in terms of the whole country. We have encouraged all our partners working with the high-rise building, from designers to interior architects, to think bigger and bolder so that Scandium Park can become a model for a new generation of commercial buildings.
Smart green solutions
The Scandium Park office building uses several environmentally friendly solutions to produce green energy. On the scale of the building’s energy class, the goal is to be at least 10% better than the A-class required in Estonia. We believe that we can supersede this goal.
The most influential green solutions in the building:
- Solar panels on the roof and facade of a high-rise building produce 61MWh of green electricity. (In the city, an electric car could cover 380 000 km with it, i.e., drive almost ten times around the globe!)
- Smart technical solutions increase the house’s green energy production to 170 MWh
- 60% of the cooling energy is produced 100% CO2 free by the house itself
- The rest of the cooling can be obtained from the district cooling route of the building, which in the future will use the cooling of the seawater of the Gulf of Tallinn as a cold source.
- We use the residual heat generated in the production of cooling to produce domestic hot water and cover the spring heating demand (in total, these are 43 MWh of energy that is recycled)
- We install Zypho heat exchangers in the piping of the shower rooms of the gym, which preheat the cold water with the help of used hot water. This saves 1 kWh of energy with one 6-minute shower.
Bike friendly and energy efficient
- The use of LED lights and demand-based sensors reduces power consumption by up to 50%.
- Bolt Drive parking spaces in front of the building – you can safely leave your car at home or not buy it at all.
- Opportunity to charge electric bikes and scooters in front of the house and in the bicycle room.
- All electricity purchased from the grid is produced from 100% renewable sources.
- Feel free to come by bike – a warm bicycle house with lockers and showers is waiting.
