The MOL Campus complex in Budapest’s 11th district was realised as a 143-metre high tower with 28 floors and a 6-storey podium, with a total floor area of 86,000 m², and a 4-level underground garage. The tower functions as office space, while the podium houses, in addition to offices, a restaurant, shops, a café and a fitness centre.

The design of the building engineering systems focused on sustainability and preparing for future environmental challenges. Future climate design values were taken into account, with special emphasis on energy efficiency and creating a comfortable indoor environment. Energy supply is ensured by geothermal heat pump systems and solar panels, the latter installed on the podium roof. The building complies with ASHRAE and other sustainability certification requirements.

Water management focused on minimising mains water consumption. The system integrates water-saving fixtures, greywater recycling and rainwater storage. Industrial wastewater is treated with separate grease and oil separators.

Heating and cooling are based on geothermal heat pumps, complemented by district heating and water-cooled chillers. A stepped cooling system ensures appropriate comfort for different levels and functions. Suspended radiant and convective panels, fan-coil units and underfloor heating/cooling solutions guarantee high comfort levels.

Mechanical engineering solutions are closely aligned with the building’s architectural and interior design concept, with the integration of systems into suspended ceilings forming part of the overall design. The systems contribute to achieving LEED and BREEAM certification, underlining the sustainable, future-oriented approach.
