A brief description of on-site renewable electricity generating devices :
The UO has four buildings that generate PV solar electricity: our Facilities Warehouse, the Erb Memorial Union, the Lillis Business Complex and the Student Recreation Center.
A brief description of on-site renewable non-electric energy devices:
There are solar hot water heaters on the roof of the Living Learning Center, Gerlinger Annex, and the HEDCO Education Building.
A brief description of off-site, institution-catalyzed, renewable electricity generating devices:
While the UO does buy energy from the Eugene Water and Electric Board (EWEB), and a large portion of their energy portfolio is from hydro-power and wind (forms of renewable energy), the off-site hydro-power and wind (clean and renewable energy sources) are not produced specifically for the UO, so we cannot claim points for this portion of the credit.
A brief description of RECs or other similar renewable energy products purchased during the previous year:
A brief description of co-generation technologies deployed:
The UO has a co-generating facility that produces electricity from waste heat generated by natural gas.
