If you are citing environmentally preferred product claims, you must provide proper certification or detailed information on environmental benefits, durability and recyclable properties.

The ASU EIS (energy management system) collects and distributes metered ASU utility data for use in analyzing energy use, setting benchmarks, modeling and assessing strategies for energy performance improvements. Modeled vs. actual energy performance comparison in progress; with plans calibrate the models to actual performance.

Calsense metering of irrigation systems measures water use (Polytechnic and Lake Havasu campuses are fully monitored; Tempe is in transition - 14 of 57; West campus is going to add Calsense metering in the near future). Domestic and irrigation water metering will be added to the 2017 FDM Project Guidelines Update as a requirement for all new construction and major renovation projects.
