The pump solution serves the heating, cooling and water demands.

This hall of residence accommodates 480 postgraduates. It has a large communal kitchen, said to be the first of its kind in the UK, that then breaks down into eight 60-person sub-kitchens that are ideal locations for students to interact and socialise. There is a common room, TV room and music rooms.
