High-demand alert - Electricity usage for Aug. 23-25

Based on weather-driven forecasted demand across the regional power grid, peak hour pricing for the campus will remain elevated throughout this week, particularly during the afternoon hours of 1 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The campus community is urged to shut down non-essential lighting and consider unplugging non-essential equipment during these peak hours. If you have access to windows, use the natural light. When not using natural light, close window blinds. Turn lights off when you leave your office. Keep temperature setpoints at 75 degrees F.  

The Office of Sustainability and the Department of Facilities Management thanks everyone for your cooperation and understanding.
