A brief description of on-site renewable electricity generating devices :
OSU Solar Trailer is a 1800 watt solar array with nine Sanyo 200 watt solar modules. Hatfield Marine Science Center has a pole mounted 1.1 kilowatt array. Kelley Engineering Center has a roof mounted 2.4 kilowatt array. Dixon Recreation Center has a kinetic energy system which utilizes 22 pieces of gym equipment and has a total generating capacity of around 2000 watts. Also, OSU installed two ground mounted arrays in 2012 that cover a total of four acres. The smaller array is 289 kilowatts while the larger is 491 kilowatts.
None
A brief description of on-site renewable non-electric energy devices:
An evacuated tube solar hot water system on the Kelley Engineering Center preheats domestic water, supplying approximately 50% of the building's domestic water heating needs. The International Living and Learning Center also has a flat plate collector solar hot water system which is estimated to be able to provide 6,625 gallons of domestic hot water per day, which averages over 50% of the annual hot water use for this building.
