Washington and Lee University: Building a Culture of Energy Conservation on Campus

Published: Sept. 19, 2019, 6 p.m.

In this episode, Jane Stewart, the Energy Specialist at Washington and Lee University, walks us through the energy conservation story at the ninth-oldest institution of higher learning in the United States. It was important to maintain the familial, welcoming culture of the university when considering an energy management program. In this episode, you'll earn how Jane was able to weave resource efficiency and sustainability into the already strong culture of this institution. The result: since the launch of the energy management program on campus Jane and the team have reduced energy consumption by 30% and reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 34%. All of this accomplished as the university grew by ~250,000 Sqft.
