Note on the selection of the measures for the Transfer Laboratories

The project team at Harz University of Applied Sciences, with the involvement of experts, evaluated and prioritized all measures of the University Climate Council based on the impact criteria. In addition, consideration was given to which measures were (or could be) already being implemented by other organizational units at the university. Finally, measures were selected for both transfer labs that had not only been given a high prioritization by the Inter-University Climate Council, but also had a high GHG impact and were expected to have additional benefits. As a result, the "bicycle rental or sharing station at the main railway station" will be implemented in the 1st transfer lab and the "optimization of the canteen offer" in the 2nd transfer lab. The latter promises corresponding synergies and particularly high visibility thanks to its cross-university implementation.

Follow-up of the (other) Climate Plan measures

The Harz University of Applied Sciences project team is in close contact with other organizational units at the university and passes on the resulting ideas. Some measures in the area of energy are taken into account in the integrated climate protection concept. Measures in the area of biodiversity can be included in the environmental program as part of the university's environmental protection management. The Senate Commission Sustainable Harz University of Applied Sciences with relevant representatives of all status groups is regularly informed about the project status and accompanies the implementation of the ClimatePlan measures as well as the measures of the environmental and climate protection management.
