A brief description of the technology used:
UK operates a sophisticated 24 hour/7 Day manned centralized energy management control center (Delta Room) which centrally monitors and controls the majority of HVAC and other equipment on campus. e.g. night reduction in use and other off peak activities. This central control has lowered campus energy use and is estimated to save $1.5 to $2.0 million annually.
