Sierra magazine requests the following information from U.S. institutions that wish to share data with that organization:
| Percentage of total electricity use (0-100) | |
| Biomass | 0 |
| Coal | 12.85 |
| Geothermal | 0 |
| Hydro | 60.72 |
| Natural gas | 10.84 |
| Nuclear | 2.59 |
| Solar photovoltaic | 0.09 |
| Wind | 11.95 |
| Other (please specify and explain below) | 0.06 |
A brief description of other sources of electricity not specified above:

| Biomass | --- |
| Coal | --- |
| Electricity | --- |
| Fuel oil | --- |
| Geothermal | --- |
| Natural gas | --- |
| Other (please specify and explain below) | --- |
A brief description of other sources of building heating not specified above:
Heat is primarily supplied by burning natural gas to make steam. When natural gas is not available (two or three days per year generally), fuel oil is used. A small percentage of heat (percentages not available) is supplied through ground coupled heat pumps, heat recovery chillers, and electrical resistance at the building level.
