Abstract:
The University of Regina is becoming more energy efficient – saving money and resources. The projects are happening with support from SaskPower’s energy efficiency programs. The first bright idea is the $1.68 million Campus Lighting Revitalization Project. Crews are replacing older inefficient lighting on the main campus with energy-efficient low-wattage lights. The project, which started in May, will see half of the main campus buildings completed this summer and the remaining half in the summer of 2016. “This is a very positive initiative for the campus and we appreciate the participation of SaskPower in providing funding and technical support to help make this happen,” says Kelly Waldal, Project Manager in Facilities Management at the University.
