Part 1
This credit is based on energy inputs from offsite sources and electricity produced by onsite renewables. When the institution purchases one fuel and uses it to produce heat and/or power, you should enter only what is purchased. For example, if the institution purchases natural gas to fuel a CHP system and produce steam and electricity, only the purchased natural gas should be reported.
| Performance Year | Baseline Year | |
| Grid-purchased electricity | 149,768 MMBtu | 150,284 MMBtu |
| Electricity from on-site renewables | 8,655 MMBtu | 0 MMBtu |
| District steam/hot water (sourced from offsite) | 0 MMBtu | 0 MMBtu |
| Energy from all other sources (e.g., natural gas, fuel oil, propane/LPG, district chilled water, coal/coke, biomass) | 109,389 MMBtu | 112,054 MMBtu |
| Total | 267,812 MMBtu | 262,338 MMBtu |
Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or 3-year periods):
| Start Date | End Date | |
| Performance Year | July 1, 2018 | June 30, 2019 |
| Baseline Year | July 1, 2005 | June 30, 2006 |

Optional Fields
---
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to shift individual attitudes and practices in regard to energy efficiency (e.g. outreach and education efforts):
---
A brief description of energy use standards and controls employed by the institution (e.g. building temperature standards, occupancy and vacancy sensors):
Standard building temperature setting is Cool to 78° and Heat to 68°, but may adjust according to operational needs. New and replacement interior lighting standard uses LED lights with occupancy sensors lighting controls that are integrated with HVAC zone controls to turn down conditioned air in vacant spaces.
A brief description of Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting and other energy-efficient lighting strategies employed by the institution:
New and replacement lights for all general interior and exterior lighting needs are standardized to utilize LED light source.
A brief description of passive solar heating, geothermal systems, and related strategies employed by the institution:
At the Center for Regenerative Studies passive solar heating, plus passive cooling and ventilation strategies are employed to demonstrate and educate the use of such alternate heating and cooling strategies. Solar heating is also employed for the pools.
A brief description of co-generation employed by the institution, e.g. combined heat and power (CHP):
---
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to replace energy-consuming appliances, equipment and systems with high efficiency alternatives (e.g. building re-commissioning or retrofit programs):
For new and replacement equipment, university has standardized on using premium efficiency motors & pumps, high SEER rated HVAC equipment, and Energy Star rated equipment. University has also initiated retro-commissioning on variety of existing academic facilities.
