Wash U. to spend $30 million on energy conservation projects
Washington University plans to spend $30 million on sustainability efforts over the next five years, a push that comes as the institution gears up to host a big meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative.
The university announced on Wednesday afternoon that it plans to spend $30 million over the next five or six years on energy conservation projects.
Hank Webber, the university’s executive vice chancellor for administration, said that money will accelerate investments in improving energy efficiency, heating and cooling systems and waste management.
The roughly 60 energy conservation projects will be implemented on the Danforth and medical school campuses and are projected to reduce emissions by more than 50,000 metric tons of CO2, according to a handout from the university.
