Does Georgia Tech purchase renewable energy or green tags?
Currently, Georgia Tech does not purchase green tags or renewable energy. However, Tech is fully committed to creating and utilizing alternative energy resources. Having the 9th largest solar roof on a US college campus, as well as the 3rd largest solar implementation of its type in the world, supplements campus energy consumption. Georgia Tech was also a very early adapter of geothermal technologies that conserve energy and reduce CO2 as a by-product of energy use. Tech demonstrates a commitment to green or renewable energy with the implementation of demonstration projects and extensive, alternative energy research.
