Energy Conservation and Sustainability
The energy conservation team is here to inform the students, faculty, staff, and friends
of the College about the important program of energy management and resource conservation.
We invite you to partner with us in making Montgomery College and the community more
energy efficient and environmentally friendly. Below you will see the College's building
energy use and cost per gross square foot, carbon offset, commodity performance, and
spending trends. The Current FY Resource Conservation Plan (RCP) (PDF, 
) supports the College's energy conservation Capital Improvements Program (CIP) and
utility operating budget requests for funding. Resource Conservation is behavior or
change in behavior that results in safe, reliable and economical use of resources.
Balanced use of resources is the basis for sustainability and Montgomery College’s
Resource Conservation Program. A Resource Conservation Plan (RCP) is prepared annually
to describe the College’s efforts. The RCP further describes utility management, benchmarking,
green building design, MC Green team, renewable energy credits in the form of solar
and/or wind energy, building automated controls, and recycling.
