A look at UM’s energy consumption and conservation efforts is one of those "good news, bad news” stories. First the good news: For the first nine months of this fiscal year, energy consumption is down three percent. Now the bad news: For the same nine months energy costs are up nine percent. According to Rafael Ross, director of energy and equipment operations, rate increases and fuel adjustment charges have made actual costs increase faster than savings through conservation efforts. "What’s worse," he says, "is that there are two more rate increases which, if approved, will probably be effective in May and September and two more fuel adjustment increases coming up. This will result in an approximate increase of 30 percent for the fiscal year.” The University now has an extensive energy conservation program which includes planning for new buildings, retrofitting existing structures and a complex computer monitoring system.

"Since that time energy consumption has decreased by 22 percent, (this in spite of a 14 percent increase in square footage) while costs have risen 186 percent.” (See table on page 3.)
