AIT prioritizes energy efficiency and sustainable construction practices. The Institute’s Energy Policy aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 15% in non-residential areas, increase local renewable electricity generation by 15%, and cut fossil-fuel consumption and energy expenses by 15% by 2026. We are committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2040. The Office of Facilities and Asset Management oversees energy reporting, ensuring transparency through a real-time web-based system accessible to the public. In terms of buildings and construction, AIT is committed to creating energy-efficient and environmentally friendly buildings. Our goals include developing a sustainable facilities tool by 2026, upgrading 20% of AIT buildings to green standards within 5 years, and promoting the use of recycled materials in construction by 10%. These policies and practices exemplify AIT’s commitment to a sustainable, energy-efficient future.
