Documentation to support the performance year energy consumption figures reported above:
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to shift individual attitudes and practices in regard to energy efficiency:
Implementation of Heating and Cooling schedules that follow building specific occupancy statuses.
A brief description of energy use standards and controls employed by the institution:
Temperatures and electrical functions monitored remotely by Facilities.
A brief description of Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting and other energy-efficient lighting strategies employed by the institution:
Any bulbs that are being replaced are being done with LED bulbs. Collectively, 72% of the University is currently lit with LED bulbs. (Based on Bulb count, not lumens, watts)
A brief description of passive solar heating, geothermal systems, and related strategies employed by the institution:
Three buildings are climate controlled through geothermal systems. This totals approximately 12% of our total square footage.
A brief description of co-generation employed by the institution:
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to replace energy-consuming appliances, equipment, and systems with high efficiency alternatives:
