How does Green Cup calculate energy use?
We are calculating these results from monthly meter readings representing usage from approximately September 20 to March 20. The Office of Physical Resources advises us how to normalize the data to account for renovations, variations in outdoor temperature, and other factors not under the control of student residents. This year’s results are compared to house performance in previous years, in order to measure improvement and account for the fact that building infrastructure presents more challenges in some Houses. DeWolfe and Claverly are not included in these results.
