Clean and renewable energy sources
Clean and renewable electricity
| kWh | MMBtu | |
| Imported electricity from certified/verified clean and renewable sources (i.e., bundled green power purchases) | 8,521,000 Kilowatt-hours | 29,073.65 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:
All energy purchased from a local source is 25% renewable. CMU has solar panels which supplement the purchased and generated energy on sunny days, but this data is not measured.
A brief description of the on-site renewable electricity generating facilities/devices:
The Education and Human Services building houses CMU solar panels. They provide energy which replaces purchased and generated non-renewable energy on sunny days, with an innovative design created by Mike Walton- CMU director of Energy and Utilities.
Clean and renewable thermal energy
| MMBtu | |
| Clean and renewable stationary fuels used on-site to generate thermal energy | 0 MMBtu |
| Imported steam, hot water, and/or chilled water from certified/verified clean and renewable sources | 0 MMBtu |

Unbundled renewable energy products
| kWh | MMBtu | |
| Purchased RECs, GOs, I-RECs or equivalent unbundled renewable energy products certified by a third party | 0 Kilowatt-hours | 0 MMBtu |
A brief description of the unbundled renewable energy products:
25% of all energy purchased will be certified renewable, effective July 1st, 2017. CMU does not own the RES's, but we utilize the renewable energy to power campus utilities and energy.
