ENERGY CONSERVATION
- Low Voltage Power: The resort uses CAT6 Ethernet cables carrying only 10 volts instead of the traditional 120 volts, reducing energy waste. This is applied to lightbulbs, door locks, security cameras and other electrical components.
- Heat Reduction: Lower voltage prevents excess heat generation, making light bulbs cool to the touch.
- Low-Voltage POE (Power Over Ethernet): This technology delivers DC power and data through network cables, avoiding the need for additional electrical wiring and ensuring safety for connected devices.
ENERGY CONSERVATION
- The golf course and resort utilize reclaimed water, which is treated to an irrigation level, significantly reducing the demand on potable water supplies.
- The resort has proactively invested in infrastructure to support water recycling, ensuring sustainable practices as part of its commitment to environmental stewardship.
- Efficient Irrigation: Golf course irrigation is monitored and controlled for every 10square feet, minimizing water usage by approximately 50%
- Advanced Regenerative Media Filter: Utilized for water reuse, ensuring all water is gray water sourced directly from Gunlock Reservoir and not tied into the Washington County water system.
- Low-Flow Systems: The entire resort is built with low-flow regenerative water systems.
- Water-Efficient Landscaping: Turf is used minimally, and all landscaping employs water reuse systems to ensure minimal water wastage.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
- In-house Waste Handling: Black Desert manages its own waste to minimize the burden on local waste management systems.
- Compaction and Recycling: All waste is compacted to reduce landfill space, and the resort engages in recycling and waste-to-energy programs.
