  12. Quick payback projects

    Associated Project(s): 
    Allocate Savings

    At some point in the past, perhaps FY 09, Terry Ruprecht and the Provost’s office worked out an agreement to provide a funding source for “quick payback projects.” This meant that the payback was expected to be quick, typically in the 1-3 year range. This was a onetime funding source.  A variety of projects (10-15) have been brought forward and funded at a value of approximately 1 million dollars. These projects have included lighting retrofits, fume hood removals, chiller control upgrades, adding variable frequency drives (VFDs) to HVAC equipment,  temperature control  upgrades, and hot water control valve replacements.

  20. James Hoffer, student intern, created building list file

    Associated Project(s): 
    Weatherization of Small Campus Buildings

    James provided the attached list of buildings audited by student teams in FY11.  Unfortunately, these audits were rushed and incomplete.  There were many follow up discussions about paying the student teams as originally intended, and in the end the teams were not paid.  This decision was coordinated by Mckenzie Beverage, the SSC Program Advisor, during FY12 and FY13.
