Green Power

MTSU is a major purchaser of green power through the Tennessee Valley Authority’s Green Power Switch (GPS) program. The amount of power purchased equates to 10%-13% of the power consumed by the campus annually. Participation in the GPS program is a function of the Sustainable Campus Fee (SCF) program and is reviewed annually for renewal.

MTSU also has a several smaller renewable energy projects including a solar array for power generation, solar
powered fans, and power generating exercise equipment in the Recreation Center. Small scale renewable
energy projects are frequently submitted and evaluated as part of the SCF program.
