A brief description of the time period from which the figures reported above are drawn (i.e. one-year time period or representative sample):
Figures were computed using available data and represent only a portion of the electronics purchased at MIT. The total spend figure provided represents eligible electronics purchases made through the e-catalog system during FY17. For this dataset, EPEAT certification information was only available for items that MIT cumulatively spent more than $10,000 on throughout the year. 98% of these highest spend electronics were EPEAT Gold certified. For the lower spend electronics, for which EPEAT certification data was unavailable (33% of items), an assumption was made that 75% were EPEAT gold certified.
