A brief description of when and why the building energy consumption baseline was adopted:
Data for 2009 was available and verifyable
A brief description of any building temperature standards employed by the institution:
Energy Management System by Johnson controls
A brief description of any light emitting diode (LED) lighting employed by the institution:
LEDs are used in display lighting in the arts center, in the hallways of all large dorms, and in about 20% of the outdoor lighting. All new buildings are 100% LED. We are increasing the use of LED everywhere.
A brief description of any occupancy and/or vacancy sensors employed by the institution:
Wattmiser or equivalent occupancy and vacancy is the standard and implemented in most classrooms and offices.
Also - astronomical clock timers for exterior lights
A brief description of any passive solar heating employed by the institution:
none
A brief description of any ground-source heat pumps employed by the institution:
none
A brief description of any cogeneration technologies employed by the institution:
none
A brief description of any building recommissioning or retrofit program employed by the institution:
The college has partnered with National Grid electric utility to undertake comprehensive lighting efficiency upgrades. Since 2011 the college has invested more than $450,000 in efficiency upgrades and saved an estimated $585,000 in electricity (cumaltive). Annually the savings are estimated to be more than one million KWH.
A brief description of any energy metering and management systems employed by the institution:
We have a Johnson Controls Energy Management system
We also use Excel to closely monitor all energy use.
A brief description of the institution's program to replace energy-consuming appliances, equipment and systems with high efficiency alternatives:
Energy Star appliances are specified where ever possible
All washing machines have been switched to high efficiency front loading machings.
A brief description of any energy-efficient landscape design initiatives employed by the institution:
All of the major post lamps have been converted to LED
Parking lots and most outdoor lights have been converted to LED. Astronomical clocks control lights so they are only on when it is dark.
A brief description of any vending machine sensors, lightless machines, or LED-lit machines employed by the institution:
Vending Miser - occupancy controlled sensors
A brief description of other energy conservation and efficiency initiatives employed by the institution:

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Electricity MMBTu included 1,100 MWH purchased from on-site solar. Because RECs are not retained, solar is caluculated like grid power.
