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 | 6,360 MMBtu | 6,360 MMBtu |
| Electricity from on-site renewables | 401 MMBtu | 401 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) | 2,412 MMBtu | 2,412 MMBtu |
| Total | 9,173 MMBtu | 9,173 MMBtu |
Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or 3-year periods):
| Start Date | End Date | |
| Performance Year | Jan. 1, 2016 | Dec. 31, 2016 |
| Baseline Year | Jan. 1, 2016 | Jan. 1, 2016 |
A brief description of when and why the building energy consumption baseline was adopted (e.g. in sustainability plans and policies or in the context of other reporting obligations):
We do not have a building energy consumption baseline that we report against each year
Gross floor area of building space:

Total building energy consumption per unit of floor area:
| Performance Year | Baseline Year | |
| Site energy | 0.60 MMBtu per square meter | 0.60 MMBtu per square meter |
| Source energy | 1.48 MMBtu per square meter | 1.48 MMBtu per square meter |

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):
We use energy efficient computers. We have timers on lights in hallways, bathrooms and offices. We have outlets that automatically shut off.
A brief description of Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting and other energy-efficient lighting strategies employed by the institution:
---
A brief description of passive solar heating, geothermal systems, and related strategies employed by the institution:
---
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):
We are a new institution with new appliances, equipment and systems that are already highly efficient.
