Gross Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Gross Scope 1 GHG emissions from stationary combustion | 1,283 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 1,174 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Gross Scope 1 GHG emissions from other sources | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported electricity | 1,870 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 3,119 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported thermal energy | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Total | 3,153 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 4,293 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Figures needed to determine net carbon sinks:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Third-party verified carbon offsets purchased | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Institution-catalyzed carbon offsets generated | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Carbon storage from on-site composting | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Carbon storage from non-additional sequestration | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Carbon sold or transferred | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |

A brief description of the carbon sinks, including vendor, project source, verification program and contract timeframes (as applicable):
Adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Adjusted net GHG emissions | 3,153 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 4,293 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or three-year periods):
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Start date | Jan. 1, 2018 | Jan. 1, 1991 |
End date | Dec. 31, 2018 | Dec. 31, 1991 |
A brief description of when and why the GHG emissions baseline was adopted:
Greenhouse gas emission reduction targets for CSU campuses are currently based on percentage reduction from 1990 levels per AB32, California's Global Warming Solutions Act. As institutional data for weighted campus users is not available for 1990, Stanislaus State adopted baseline year for 1991.
Figures needed to determine “Weighted Campus Users”:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Number of students resident on-site | 680 | 310 |
Number of employees resident on-site | 3 | 1 |
Number of other individuals resident on-site | 1 | 0 |
Total full-time equivalent student enrollment | 9,462.70 | 4,091.30 |
Full-time equivalent of employees | 994 | 549 |
Full-time equivalent of students enrolled exclusively in distance education | 163.20 | 0 |
Weighted Campus Users | 7,891.88 | 3,557.98 |
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user | 0.40 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent | 1.21 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent |
Percentage reduction in adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user from baseline:
Gross floor area of building space, performance year:
Floor area of energy intensive building space, performance year:
Floor area | |
Laboratory space | 52,616 Square feet |
Healthcare space | 4,746 Square feet |
Other energy intensive space | 26,598 Square feet |
EUI-adjusted floor area, performance year:
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per unit of EUI-adjusted floor area, performance year:
A brief description of the institution’s GHG emissions reduction initiatives:
· Replaced indoor T8 fluorescent lights with LED in some buildings
· Replaced outdoor HPS lights with LED at some parking lots and streets
· Implemented central plant MBCx project to optimize the performance of central plant and related chilled and hot water systems
· Implemented Bizzini Hall MBCx project to optimize the performance of the building HVAC system
· Implemented ventilation optimization project on the third floor of Naraghi Hall of Science to reduce ventilation flows through fume hoods during low-use or no–use periods and meet code requirement
· Installed a sophisticated irrigation water control system to reduce water usage
· Installed a water filtration system for cooling tower operation. Cooling tower make up water is reclaimed storm water. Furthermore, the blow down water is collected back to the irrigation system
· Installed water efficient faucets and shower heads
· Installed 250 kW Photo-Voltaic system on the roof of Science I building
· Installed 30 kW Photo-Voltaic system at Irrigation Station
· Installed 270 kW system Photo-Voltaic on the roof of Cafe
· Installed seven EV charge stations
· Purchased 29 electric vehicles
· Summer and Winter Intercession classes are scheduled to allow shut-down of the HVAC system in some buildings and zones during low-use or no-use periods
