Energy Use in Schools

• U.S. schools spend over $7.5* billion on energy each year– More than on textbooks and

computers combined!• Energy costs are the largest

operating expense for schools– Over $200 per student per year

*Source: Energy StarOne of the few expenses that can be reduced without impacting learning

Building Type Cost /sq.ft.25%

Cost /sq.ft.Median

Cost /sq.ft.75%

Health Care $2.26 $2.70 $3.84

Medical Office Building $0.60 $1.25 $1.90

Schools $0.79 $1.25 $2.00Office $0.83 $1.25 $1.90

Retail $0.66 $1.20 $2.10

House of Worship $0.30 $0.75 $1.30

Warehouse $0.25 $0.55 $0.85

Example: School Market - Elementary Bldg. 70,000 sq.ft.The Benchmark for our example found this school building with an Energy Star score of 50

Using the highlighted line we see that an Energy Star score of : 50 75 would be about $0.79 sq.ft. 50 would be about $1.25 sq.ft. 25 would be about $2.00 sq.ft.

Example of Yearly Energy Spend:70,000 sq.ft. X $0.79sq.ft. = $55,300 70,000 sq.ft. X $1.25sq.ft. = $87,500 Potential Savings w/Energy Services 70,000 sq.ft X $2.00sq.ft. = $140,000 10% - 15%
