Glasgow City Council, GB incorporates smart water systems into newly built nursery schools
Glasgow City Council, GB Smart Water Systems Nursery Schools
Greywater tanks at Broomhill and Govanhill Nursery Schools are connected to a Smart Grey Water Systems hub. This platform analyzes upcoming weather forecasts for potential flood risks. Each tank releases collected water into the surrounding property once it receives the hub's signal. This automated process reduces the magnitude of flooding in the surrounding neighborhood. Council officials also approved air-source heat pumps at four new schools for low-cost climate control.
