4. Give energy aspects the attention they deserve
Do you have an energy policy? Good. Your goal should be to comply with – or if possible surpass – your energy policy, even if it may feel like an unnecessary additional cost initially. It will pay dividends in the long run. Because it is all too easy to underestimate the volumes involved with a multi-functional arena.
Think in cubic metres, not in square metres.
Pay attention to details: Different surfaces have different effects on operating costs.
Delegate clear responsibility to ensure that energy-related issues are taken seriously and that they are followed up appropriately. It will pay dividends in the long run.
