INSPIRATION
The recently completed CREST Passive Pavilion in Enniskillen is a beacon for sustainable construction in the region, demonstrating a wide range of renewable energy and sustainable technologies. Located at South West College’s Technology and Skills Centre in Enniskillen, it has been designed to be Passive House Certified, BREEAM Excellent rated and carbon neutral.
The Pavilion is used to host seminars, training, workshops and conferences, and to demonstrate the latest in renewable energy and sustainable technologies. CREST - the Centre for Renewable Energy and Sustainable Technologies - provides R&D support to small to medium sized enterprises in the region. It helps them to develop and test new product prototypes, and to incorporate renewable energy and sustainable technologies into existing products or processes.
