| kWh | MMBtu | |
| Imported electricity from certified/verified clean and renewable sources (i.e., bundled green power purchases) | 4,705,595 Kilowatt-hours | 16,055.49 MMBtu |
| Electricity from on-site, clean and renewable sources (rights retained/retired) | 0 Kilowatt-hours | 0 MMBtu |
A brief description of the certified/verified sources of clean and renewable electricity:
Bryant University has signed a power purchase agreement with Kearsage Energy for renewable energy credits from multiple solar farms in Rhode Island. This agreement provides off-sets on the electricity invoices from National Grid. We are currently purchasing 36% of our total load. The University receives a credit from the solar provider based on kWh's generated by the facilities.
