Part 1
This credit is based on energy inputs from offsite sources and electricity produced by onsite renewables. When the institution purchases one fuel and uses it to produce heat and/or power, you should enter only what is purchased. For example, if the institution purchases natural gas to fuel a CHP system and produce steam and electricity, only the purchased natural gas should be reported.

Optional Fields
---
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to shift individual attitudes and practices in regard to energy efficiency (e.g. outreach and education efforts):
---
A brief description of energy use standards and controls employed by the institution (e.g. building temperature standards, occupancy and vacancy sensors):
SF State's Facilities department uses a computer program to monitor HVAC systems energy performance throughout campus.
SF State uses occupancy sensors for lighting throughout campus.
A brief description of Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting and other energy-efficient lighting strategies employed by the institution:
The SF State Parking Garage used motion detector-enabled LED lighting. The Fine Arts Gallery uses LEDs. The President's Office is being retrofitted with LED lighting.
SF State uses motion sensors throughout campus buildings to reduce energy consumption from lighting.
SF State employs delamping as a method for lowering lighting energy use by removing excessive lighting.
SF State's newer buildings use daylighting to reduce the need for mechanical lighting.
A brief description of passive solar heating, geothermal systems, and related strategies employed by the institution:
---
A brief description of co-generation employed by the institution, e.g. combined heat and power (CHP):
SF State operated 2 cogeneration plants until 2012 when they were decomissioned. Part of the decision to leave them in non-operation is to decrease greenhouse gas emissions from natural gas.
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to replace energy-consuming appliances, equipment and systems with high efficiency alternatives (e.g. building re-commissioning or retrofit programs):
