a note on target base year The target base year is calculated and is the average of the greenhouse gas emissions from fiscal years 2012 through 2014. It is used for setting and tracking progress toward the Sustainability Plan greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal. For example, to assess performance for fiscal year 2018, the greenhouse

gas emissions from fiscal year 2018 (14.7 kg eCO2/sqft) are compared to the greenhouse gas emissions from the target base year (16.5 kg eCO2/sqft). This comparison reveals an approximate 11 percent decrease in greenhouse gas emissions. Greenhouse gas emissions for each subsequent year will be compared to the target base year, and performance will be assessed accordingly.

6/13 The University of Chicago | Sustainability Plan Update 2019 sustainability.uchicago.edu Area 2: High Performance Buildings Goal: Reduce the consumption of natural gas and electricity

Through 2019, approximately 330+ energy conservation measures have been implemented. Energy Use Intensity Highlights of implemented energy conservation measures include: Campus energy use intensity, a measure of total energy use per square foot in campus buildings, is an important metric used to determine campus energy performance. Table 2.1 • Completed 12 projects using ComEd’s retro-commissioning program. indicates the total campus energy use intensity from natural gas and electricity usage in campus buildings by fiscal year. • Completed Preventative Maintenance and Commissioning (PM + Cx) projects in 14 buildings.

university water consumption Water usage is measured in thousands of cubic feet per fiscal year (1,000 ft3/FY). The University has a goal to reduce potable water consumption for purposes that do not require it.

The reduction of potable water remains an important goal on the University of Chicago campus. Much like the greenhouse 49,176 gas emissions, the amount of potable water use on campus was quantified to establish a water use profile by fiscal year. 38,869 41,015 41,378 As shown in figure 7.1, the total potable water consumption has 40,000 9,000,000 increased approximately 6% from the fiscal year 2013 to fiscal 34,137 year 2017. The main reasons for this increase include: 8,434,736 8,186,072 7,750,253 • An increase in the fiscal year 2017 building area (square 7,660,390 7,523,418 footage) compared to the fiscal year 2013 building area (square footage). The increase of 774,347 square feet was due to new construction and renovation. 20,000 5,000,000

• Buildings with an increase in water use intensity (gallons per square feet) from fiscal year 2013 to fiscal year 2017, including the South Steam Plant and the West Campus Combined Utility Plant.

A plan to identify ways for potable water use reduction is 0 1,000,000 in progress. FY 2013 FY 2014 FY 2015 FY 2016 FY 2017 1,000 ft3 = 7,480.52 gallons

a note on potable water use target base year The target base year is the potable water use for fiscal year 2013. It is used for setting and tracking progress toward the Sustainability Plan potable water use reduction goal. For example, to assess performance for fiscal year 2017, the total potable water use for fiscal year 2017 (41,378,000 ft3) is compared to the potable water use from the target base year (38,869,000 ft3). This comparison reveals an approximate 6 percent increase in potable water use from the target base year to fiscal year 2017. Potable water use for each subsequent year will be compared to the target base year, and performance will be assessed accordingly.
