RDC’s Quest to Net Zero
Everyone knows that in academic circles a zero is typically a bad thing.
However, this last year Red Deer College has continued to build on its legacy of sustainable projects, and we are now beginning to challenge ourselves further to explore how we could potentially become a ‘net zero’ institution.
This essentially means that all the energy RDC’s main campus needs to power our buildings and infrastructure would be produced on campus from sustainable sources.
Fortunately, we have taken some strong steps to help start this process, as we have invested in a number of alternative energy technologies that help us reduce our demand on external energy sources.
