Lusail Stadium - the venue for the FIFA World Cup™ opening match and final match on 18 December - has accomplished a five-star rating under the Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS), which is directed by the Gulf Organization for Research and Development (GORD).
The 80,000-capacity stadium brags a number of sustainability features, including a state-of-the-art roof and water efficiency systems. The arena's plan is enlivened by the transaction of light and shadow, in view of the 'fanar' lamp, which outlines the brilliant time of craftmanship in the Arab and Islamic world.
Lusail accomplished a five-star rating for GSAS Design and Build and a Class A* rating for GSAS Construction Management. Chiefs from the Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy got the endorsements during a unique occasion on Monday. The SC appointment included Eng. Ghanim Al Kuwari, Deputy Director General, Technical Services, Eng. Bodour Al Meer, Sustainability Executive Director, and Jassim Al Jaidah, Sustainability Communications Manager.
"This certificate from GORD is a significant piece of our FIFA World Cup venture," said Al Kuwari. "Sustainability has been key to our arrangements from the beginning as not entirely settled to foster scenes that support nearby networks here in Qatar long after the competition. We are exceptionally pleased to get these honors and honor everybody engaged with the development of Lusail Stadium - an unbelievable scene that will have the greatest global football match on earth - the FIFA World Cup last - in the not so distant future."
