+      OSU's 1920s era heat plant provided steam to most campus buildings until 2009 when the new LEED Platinum-rated OSU Energy Center was completed. The Energy Center reduced OSU’s carbon emissions 16% in its first full year of operation. 
+
+      The Energy Center provides steam to heat the campus and about 40% of OSU’s electricity. It is one of the few support and operations buildings in the US to receive a Platinum Rating. By making electricity on campus, “waste” heat can be used in campus buildings, a process called co-generation. In addition to improved efficiency, plant systems can burn renewable fuels like biodiesel and methane gas.The plant includes various green building technologies like rainwater harvesting, efficient lighting, and low impact landscaping.

Food grown in the community garden is donated to Linn-Benton Food Share. Students and faculty are also investigating how vegetated green roofs can provide various ecosystem services such as stormwater mitigation and biodiversity, designing innovative urban landscapes, and helping to restore the ecological functions of Oak Creek.",
