Hutchison-Quad<br />

Hot Water Conversion<br />

To decrease our campus’s reliance on natural gas and move our university closer to becoming<br />

carbon neutral by 2025, UC Davis is converting our building heating system from utilizing steam<br />

heat created by heating water with natural gas to utilizing hot water heated with electricity – a<br />

renewable resource. The large-scale project, starting with the buildings and infrastructure located<br />

in the campus Quad District, will replace our current heat exchangers with newer models and<br />

retrofit the underground piping infrastructure to operate the new system.<br />
