Penn State Recognized as National Leader in Green Power

Penn state has topped the list of Big 10 schools, and ranked 3rd in the nation among colleges and universities for their use of green energy within their institution. These green power sources include solar, wind, geothermal and hydroelectric sources that have little to no impact on the environment whatsoever. Penn State is no stranger to the top of the list, as this is the 4th year in a row they have topped the Big 10 in green power use.

Presently, Penn State University purchases 84 million kilowatt hours of green power, but it is expected this number will go up with the expiration of their current contract.
