Sustainability
Energy Use Charts
Reducing the energy use for future buildings
is a very important part of meeting the carbon
neutral campus goals. The next series of charts
and graphs summarizes the existing campus
heating, cooling and Energy Use Indices for the
various building types on campus and sets goals
for future building energy use.
The charts also indicate the percentage
increases in efficiency the design team set to
reach the master plan goals. Refer to Appendix
E for a more detailed analysis.
