A brief description of on-site renewable electricity generating devices :
On its south side, the Noel Fine Arts Center has its own 18-window photovoltaic panel. The panel captures light energy from the sun and uses it to light parts of the Fine Arts Center inner courtyard area. Each of the 18 windows produces about 900 - 1,200 watts of electricity on a sunny day.
A brief description of on-site renewable non-electric energy devices:
Four of our residentail living halls, Knutzen, Neale, Suites@201 and Pray-Sims, are equipped with solar panels that serve to heat all of the water in the buildings.

NatureWise® Renewable Energy Program is utilized on campus. NatureWise® is a sound way to bring environmentally friendly electricity to communities Wisconsin Public Service serves. Rather than producing electricity using coal, natural gas or other means, NatureWise supports the generation of electricity from a blend of wind, solar and biomass (gases produced naturally from landfills and farm animal waste). This cleanly produced green electricity is then added to the power grid of communities in the WPS area.
