Energy Conservation
Conserve and Preserve
Energy Conservation Project Report
Arizona State University is currently undergoing Phase II of its Performance Contract where, through the upgrade of our utilities infrastructure, we are working to reduce the energy consumption on the Tempe campus, in the form of electricity and natural gas, as well as reducing the use of chilled water for cooling.
These energy efficiency projects include the following: The retrofit of interior lighting systems with lower wattage fluorescent light bulbs; the installation of 78 watt LED parking structure fixtures; changing out of campus exterior lighting for lower wattage fixtures; repairing or replacing steam traps; upgrading building HVAC controls with Direct Digital Control Systems and VAV retrofit; installing occupancy sensors; Installing zone pressure sensors, Aircuity, and Phoenix Valves on laboratory fume hoods; as well as implementing an on-going continuous commissioning program.
In 2007, Phase I was completed. You can read about that project here.
New Room Temperature Conservation Guidelines
At the ASU Tempe campus classrooms and offices are heated to no higher than 68° F, and cooled to no lower than 80° F. These new guidelines reduce the amount of energy used for space conditioning. Click here to see the memorandum from President Crow.

Did you know...
To reduce the amount of energy consumed by traffic signals, some cities are turning to light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
Compared to standard incandescent traffic lights, LEDs can cut energy use by 80-90 percent. That can produce dramatic savings for communities.
