What was the favorite thing you learned about energy use/conservation?
My favorite thing I learned about energy use is that unlike the normal households, the energy usage on campus comes from three different resources: steam, chilled water, and electricity. Our campus buildings usually do not have 0 energy usage even though when no one is occupying the buildings
Why are you passionate about energy conservation?
I am passionate about how we can conserve the energy when there is no one using the energy in the building.
What energy saving tip do you want to share with others on campus?
An energy saving tip I would like share with others on campus is to avoid vampire loads. Always unplug a device when you do not need it because even though you turned off your device, sometimes, the device will still consume electricity to maintain its basic function (ex: a small light on a video player).
