Universities regularly implement advanced strategies to decrease and optimize energy and water usage. In a region riddled with issues, such as drought, legal disputes over water supply, and EPA consent decrees, Georgia Institute of Technology has taken significant strides to better understand and improve its water footprint. From its Stormwater Master Plan to campus-wide wastewater reclamation and reuse, Georgia Tech is implementing a comprehensive water management system that minimizes the Institute’s environmental footprint, reduces risk and saves money.
