The university has implemented a comprehensive clean energy strategy to reduce fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The centrepiece is a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) solar system installed across all campus buildings and parking structures, with a total production capacity of 3 MW DC. Since full commissioning in 2019, the system generates approximately 5 GWh of electricity annually — exceeding the institution's total consumption in multiple years.

In parallel, the university has pursued additional emission reduction measures including energy efficiency upgrades, electrification of campus security vehicles, and the provision of free electric vehicle charging ports within the multi-storey parking facility.

Using 2015 as the baseline year (3,167 tonnes CO₂eq), the university has achieved net-negative carbon emissions every year since 2020. By the 2025 reporting year, combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions stood at 1,258 tonnes, while total annual reductions from solar energy exports and other institutional measures reached 2,799 tonnes — yielding a net position of −1,541 tonnes CO₂eq. These results have advanced the university's carbon neutrality target year from the original 2060 to 2045.

The table below summarises the institution's CO₂eq emissions trajectory from the 2015 baseline through the 2025 reporting year.​
