HEIF

HSU Energy Independence Fund

Advisory committee

http://www.humboldt.edu/~sctf/policy.html

"The HSU Energy Independence Fund is an innovative project that will reduce the university's exposure to rising utility costs while decreasing our environmental impact. The fund creates a pool of money generated from a student fee of $10 a student per semester that will make HSU energy independent by funding projects that conserve energy and generate electricity from renewable resources. Through these projects, HSU is projected to be meeting all of its electricity needs with renewable energy by 2043. All projects funded by the HEIF will be designed by students and proposed to the HEIF student majority committee for approval. The committee will collaborate with HSU Physical Services to implement the projects. The completed projects will be owned and maintained by HSU. This process provides unique educational opportunities for HSU students, reduces our energy costs, and will enhance our reputation as a pioneer in campus sustainability."
