A brief description of the on-site renewable electricity generating facilities/devices:
NC State has a long history of solar installations on campus, as the Solar House was first opened to the public in 1981. On-site solar on campus varies from rooftop installations to solar umbrellas. A comprehensive list of current on-site solar installations can be found here: https://sustainability.ncsu.edu/campus/energy-water/solar-energy/
Clean and renewable thermal energy (report MMBtu):
| MMBtu | |
| Clean and renewable stationary fuels used on-site to generate thermal energy | 0 MMBtu |
| Imported steam, hot water, and/or chilled water from certified/verified clean and renewable sources | 0 MMBtu |
A brief description of the clean and renewable stationary fuels:
NC State has several solar thermal installations, however, they are unmetered. Thus, we are unable to provide an accurate data.
