It is led by the Associate Vice President for Sustainability and Facilities Planning. Energy use is monitored using Siemens' energy meters in most buildings, and real-time electricity use data are shared with the campus community via the College's Lucid Energy Dashboard. EUI standards have been established for new construction, and EUI data for existing buildings are used to identify maintenance issues and prioritize energy management projects. Campus energy use is also shared publicly on Dickinson's Sustainability Dashboard: http://marcomm.dickinson.edu/dashboard/greenhouse_emissions.html.

Water consumption is also monitored on the Sustainability Dashboard, at http://marcomm.dickinson.edu/dashboard/water_consumption.html). As with energy consumption, we use the data to identify areas of concern for maintenance and renovation.
