In addition to the College Park campus, UMD also manages over 3,800 acres of land across the state, including facilities in Western Maryland, Eastern Shore, Ellicott City, and Clarksville. </span></p><p><span>To achieve carbon neutrality by 2025, UMD conserves energy, sources renewable energy, and increases campus efficiency through infrastructure upgrades, green buildings, and smart growth.</span></p><p><a href="/progress/carbon-offsetting"><span><strong>Carbon Neutrality Initiatives:</strong></span></a><span> In 2021, President Pines committed UMD to achieving carbon neutrality by 2025, accelerating UMDs original goal by 25 years. Compared to the 2005 baseline, UMD has already halved greenhouse gas emissions through programs including: the 100% renewable purchased electricity commitment, the Carbon Neutral Air Travel initiative, the Undergraduate Student Commuting Offset Program, and the Carbon Neutral New Development program.</span></p><p><a href="https://sustainingprogress.umd.edu/measuring-progress/carbon-neutrality"><span><strong>Renewable Electricity:</strong></span></a><span> As of 2020, all purchased electricity is generated by renewable sources. In addition to the electricity generated on campus by the Combined Heat and Power Plant (30%) and solar panels (5%), around 65% of electricity is sourced from purchasing agreements with local wind and solar farms or from the regional Renewable Energy Credit (REC) market.</span></p><p><a href="https://nextgen.umd.edu/"><span><strong>NextGen Energy Program:</strong></span></a><span> The NextGen Energy Program (NextGen) is a major initiative to replace, renew, and modernize the University of Maryland, College Park's aging energy system through a proposed public-private partnership (P3).

UMD’s solar arrays are found at the Mowatt, Regents and Terrapin garages, Severn building, and the Institute for Bioscience and Biotechnology Research (IBBR). Since their installation in 2016, the panels are expected to save the university about $1 million during the 20-year contract period, making UMD well positioned to take advantage of the growing cost-effectiveness of renewable energy over fossil fuels. </span><a href="http://kiosk.datareadings.com/5QJba0pN/overview"><span>Explore UMD's solar kiosk</span></a><span>. </span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="page-section page-section-umd_terp_homepage page-section-ut_image_with_text"> <div class="max-bound"> <div class="outer-pad"> <div class="editor-content" id="umd_terp_paragraph--2967"> <figure aria-label="image with caption" role="group" class="align-right"> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/optimized/public/2021-08/13.png?itok=ou2U01MN" alt="Hand installing a light bulb"> </figure> <h3>Conserving Energy</h3><p><span>Each of us has the power to save energy, driving big changes through small but persistent action and awareness. You can conserve energy every day by turning off lights, using power strips, installing LED light bulbs and using hibernate/sleep settings. Be sure to unplug appliances when not in use and wash your clothes in cold water. Dress appropriately for the season and harness natural light to reduce thermostat needs.
