Claire Roby Carbon Accounting Coordinator

 What are our major emissions sources?  Where will our emissions be in 20 years – and where do we want them to be?  In what ways to does our current infrastructure present constraints, or opportunities?  What are the most cost effective measures to reduce our emissions?  How can we track our progress?

Management Tool Managing the energy costs along with the environmental impact Pedagogical Opportunity Incorporate the learning into a “living laboratory” Outreach Vehicle Strategically engage a community of individuals Civic Document Communicate your institutional commitment

 Temporal  Spatial  Scope ◦ Scope 1: onsite and direct control ◦ Scope 2: offsite and direct control ◦ Scope 3: less control

 Available to anyone for free download at  Inventory Module  Projection Module  Solutions Module

Scope 1 Scope 2 Purchased steam, electricity, or chilled water (kWh) Scope 3 Benchmarking BudgetsSquare footageStudent/Faculty/Staff FTE’s On-campus stationary sourcesFertilizers Fleet vehicles (gallons or kWh)Animals RefrigerantsWastewater (if water treated on campus) Commuting emissionsWastewater Outsourced air travelPurchased paper Outsourced ground travelPurchased food TrashUpstream energy

1.Linear Projection 2.Normalized By Students/ Employees/Population 3. Normalized By Square Feet 4. Custom Trends

 Analyzes emissions reduction measures ◦ Cost ◦ Size of reduction  Prioritizes reduction measures ◦ Ideal measure is low cost, large reduction Cost ($) + - Emissions Reduction (%)

1.Come up with a series of projects 2.Enter a few pieces of data 3.Check the assumptions 4.The calculator will evaluate 5.Present this information

Project1 Hybrid Civic, as opposed to a normal Civic Start Year (FY)2007 Marginal Capital Cost-$3000 Annual Marginal Operating Cost $0 Activity Change-450 gal of gasoline

 1-Internal Rate of Return (IRR)  2-Net Present Value (NPV)  3- Payback Time
