The Intersection of IT, Sustainability, and Facilities: Measuring Campus Consumption

Through several partnerships at Macalester College, we have implemented campus-wide submeters to track energy and utility consumption using a low-cost, nonproprietary, contract-free IP metering device. Our success stems from our partnership with a local manufacturer to adopt a solution that removes ongoing contract maintenance.

Outcomes: Learn about the fundamentals of energy and utility measurement and verification * Understand the benefits of using a nonproprietary solution * Understand the steps and business processes we used to implement our solution so it can be replicated at your institution
