What is the ASU Renewable Energy Initiative?

The ASUREI is a committee of sevent students, with faculty and staff advisors that are responsible for allocating money towards the implementation of renewable energy on campus.  The committee's annual operating budget comes from a self-imposed student fee of $5 per student per semester.  The student body, by 83% approval, voted in 2004 to tax themselves to pay for renewable energy projects on campus.  In 2007, the students voted again in favor at 92% approval.

We are extremely grateful to the students of Appalachian State University for deciding to take action and contribute $5 each semester in order to bring renewable energy projects to our campus.

With the momentum of the ASUREI continually growing, your contribution can assist the university in educating our students on the benefits of energy conservation, energy efficiency, and renewable energy production.

While the ASUREI is charged with bringing renewable energy projects to the campus of Appalachian State University, our goal is to advocate for a sustainable approach to global climate change and energy independence. Your contribution will help our committee not only bring more renewable energy systems to the campus but will also help to educate students about the importance of energy conservation, our greatest and most effective renewable energy.
