7. Historical efforts Energy efficiency:
Electricity use per square foot has been reduced by 39% over the past 10-year timeframe, reflecting a $5.5 million in annual avoided costs based on 2015 electrical rates.
Natural gas use per square foot has been reduced by over 54% over the past 10-year timeframe through energy and domestic hot water efficiency projects and initiatives, reflecting a $1.4 million in annual avoided cost based on 2015 natural gas rates.
Energy efficiency:
Electricity use per square foot has been reduced by 39% over the past 10-year timeframe, reflecting a $5.5 million in annual avoided costs based on 2015 electrical rates. This savings can be attributed primarily to implementation of the Strategic Energy Partnership, increased efficiency standards in new construction, and increasing the campus community’s awareness regarding energy conservation.
Total natural gas use decreased by 16% in 2014/2015 as compared to the prior year. Natural gas use per square foot has been reduced by over 54% over the past 10-year timeframe through energy and domestic hot water efficiency projects and initiatives, reflecting a $1.4 million in annual avoided cost based on 2015 natural gas rates.

8. Renewable Energy
~5 megawatt photovoltaic Power Purchase Agreement at six sites behind the main campus SCE meter, including what would be the largest carport array in California (Lot 38). The project will save the campus an estimated $270K during its first year of operation and reduce Scope I greenhouse gas emissions by 10%.

10. Surface Parking (Lot 38) 1,931 kW

11. San Clemente Parking Structure (Lot 50) 722 kW

12. Events Center Roof 513 kW

13. Robertson Gym Roof 494 kW

14. Robertson Gym Roof 494 kW

15. Mesa Parking Structure (Lot 18) 970 kW

16. Elings Hall Parking Structure (Lot 10) 613 kW

17. Demand Side Management Mitigation Approach
Statewide Energy Partnership (SEP)
Project Types:
LED and Smart Lighting Controls
Mechanical System Upgrades
Monitoring-Based Commissioning (Building Tune-Ups)
UCSB participates in the Strategic Energy Partnership (SEP) with Southern California Edison and Southern California Gas, which helps us plan for and implement multi-pronged campus solutions to energy, involving on- and off-site generation, conservation, and a degree of reliance on fossil sources.
MBCx - combines building data from a wide variety of sources to better manage building performance and efficiency. MBCx involves the implementation of improvement
measures along with ongoing service.

18. Supply Side Management Mitigation Approach
Approach Types:
On-Site Solar Photovoltaic and Thermal
Wholesale Power Procurement (via UC Energy Services Unit)
Biogas Procurement (via UC ESU)
Offset Procurement (via UC ESU or Independently)
