A brief description of on-site renewable electricity generating devices :
The following renewable energy projects have been implemented: solar wall, solar PV/duct system (new, so no data in the calculation) and Solar thermal for pre-heating domestic hot water. Additional solar and other renewable projects are in the planning and implementation stages. The Truro campus uses biomass for district heating.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Dalhousie has a goal in the University Sustainability Plan to identify and implement renewable energy on campus. Since the passing of the Plan in 2010 the university has undertaken a campus wide-solar study for the Halifax campuses and a Renewable Energy Plan for the Truro campus (new campus from recent merger -2012). This is not calculated in the score because since the merger there has not been enough time passed to have a full baseline and performance year of data.
