The Sara Cultural Centre Boasts Eco-Friendly Features
Debra John — May 2, 2025The Sara Cultural Centre is an eco-friendly building designed to reduce its impact on the environment while providing a comfortable space for visitors. The 20-storey building is made mostly from timber sourced from local forests, making it one of the tallest timber buildings in the world. Additionally, by using wood instead of traditional materials like concrete or steel helps lower the building’s carbon footprint.
The centre also includes solar panels and uses energy-efficient systems to further reduce energy use. These features help make the building more sustainable and environmentally responsible.
To power the centre with 100% renewable energy, local energy experts and the company ABB worked together to install smart technology. This system uses advanced algorithms and connects to the city’s energy network, allowing the building to run efficiently while using only clean energy. The Sara Cultural Centre is a strong example of modern, sustainable design.
