Clean and renewable electricity
| kWh | MMBtu | |
| Imported electricity from certified/verified clean and renewable sources (i.e., bundled green power purchases) | 0 Kilowatt-hours | 0 MMBtu |
| Electricity from on-site, clean and renewable sources (rights retained/retired) | 126,839 Kilowatt-hours | 432.77 MMBtu |

A brief description of the on-site renewable electricity generating facilities/devices:
MRU's rooftop Solar 1 installation of 360 panels @ 400 Watts per panel, installed at a 10 degree angle, has a potential power generation rate of 144 kW. Natural Resources Canada (NRC) recommends an installed angle of 15 degrees for MRU's latitude, but MRu went with a non-optimal panel angle for safety reasons (i.e. minimize the chance that winds displace panels).
