Resource Efficiency Program

Resource Efficiency Program

Founded in 2002, the Resource Efficiency Program (REP) at Harvard University is dedicated to advancing sustainability. Student employees, i.e. “REPs”, have a direct impact on campus sustainability goals, via operations-focused projects with tangible outcomes across campus.

Campus Sustainability Projects

REPs tackle campus sustainability goals by working on projects that collaborate with campus staff and stakeholders. Projects have included:

 

  • FAS Residential Water Anomalies Investigation and Analysis
  • FAS Residential Waste Signage and Best Practices Evaluation
  • PRESTO Work Order Service: Process Investigation
  • Building Lighting Audit: Non-Peak Hours
  • Exterior Door Heat Loss & Mitigation Tactics
  • FAS Building Management System Controls Audit

 

These learning opportunities equip REPs with the knowledge, communication, and project management skills to effectively enhance campus sustainability.
