Universidad de Guadalajara & OT Services

Ventilation and air-conditioning accounts for more than 80% of energy consumption at Mexico’s University of Guadalajara. It is partnering with Colombian innovator OT Services to field test innovative solar air conditioning and bipolar ionization technology that will reduce energy consumption of air cooling systems by up to 97% during sunlit hours, and up to 60% during cloudy conditions and at night, with a payback period of less than two years. The bipolar ionization technology also improves air filtration and quality, a key concern during the COVID-19 era.
