Staff Training on Energy Efficiency
A year long project to train staff on energy efficiency in offices and labs on campus.
Etcheverry Faculty Space
Project to potentially cut in half the amount of electricity used in the Mechanical Engineering Department's faculty research space. This will be accomplished by re-wiring in a manner that allows lighting only in the specific area needed, rather than turning on all the overhead lights in the entire research area as happens with the current two light switches. She anticipates within as little as seven years the financial cost of the installation will be recouped. Need: $4,700, 100% funded
CalCAP - Cal Climate Action Partnership
In 2005, UC Berkeley launched the Cal Climate Action Partnership (CalCAP), an initiative that will develop strategy and implementation methods to significantly reduce UC Berkeley’s greenhouse gas footprint without compromising its functions. With support from the Chancellor’s Advisory Committee on Sustainability (CACS) the Berkeley Institute of the Environment (BIE), and Environmental Health & Safety, CalCAP brings together representatives from the entire campus community to develop a Climate Action Plan/Feasibility Study to identify greenhouse gas mitigation and funding opportunities. Upon its completion in 2007, CalCAP expects the Plan to identify how UC Berkeley can commit to State of California or more aggressive emissions reduction targets. The recommendations will incorporate an assessment of activities to reduce the carbon footprint of the campus, including activities initiated by student groups.
Implement High Priority Bicycle Plan Projects & Programs
project_ImplHighPriorBikeProjcts.jpg On-going CalCAP project: Campus Bicycle Plan identifies bicycle programs and projects aimed at increasing bicycle commuting over the next 15 years, as outlined in the 2020 LRDP.
Install Energy Star (EPA) computer settings
project_InstallEnergyStarComps.jpg Current CalCAP project: Reduce energy usage by computers and monitors.
Expand electric vehicle fleet
project_ExpandElectricVehicleFleet.jpg Pending CalCAP project: Expand electric vehicle fleet to replace gasoline powered vehicles with electric vehicles.
Increasing occupant awareness and electricity curtailment
project_IncOccupantAwarenessElectricity.jpg Current CalCAP project: Increase occupant awareness through the publication of building energy usage, baseline awards, an outreach campaign, and efficient use of energy management system.
