Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
The above number represents total hardware (computer, monitor, printer, peripheral) purchases in FY18. OIT purchases the majority of computers and monitors for campus labs, and staff/faculty office use, and has a standard for EPEAT Gold and Energy Star certified hardware. For hardware purchased outside of OIT, they recommend the same campus standards for EPEAT Gold and Energy Star.

OIT estimates that 90% of purchased hardware meet their standards, all of which are EPEAT Gold.
