UC DAVIS: VICE CHANCELLOR - ADMINISTRATION April 18, 2008 DEANS, DIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS, AND ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS RE: UC DAVIS REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER REPLACEMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM As part of the campuswide effort to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, the central campus is offering a rebate incentive to departments that replace old free-standing refrigerators or freezers with newly manufactured units. For departments that purchase qualifying refrigerators or freezers to replace existing units manufactured before 1990, the central campus will provide a dollar- for-dollar match, up to $400. The central campus will also pay the full cost of proper disposal of the old unit. For departments that dispose of an old unit without replacement, the campus will pay an energy reduction award of $200 and will also pay the full cost of proper disposal. To qualify for a replacement rebate or energy reduction award, the old unit must be a freestanding refrigerator or freezer housed on the Davis campus and manufactured before 1990. (An estimate of age based on departmental records, visual inspection, or staff recollection is acceptable.) Units in student residence halls are excluded. Equipment used to store flammable materials is also excluded. Replacement units must be newly manufactured, Energy Star(TM)-rated and university-owned. Each replaced unit will save approximately 1,300 kilowatt-hours and 1,000 pounds of carbon emissions per year. This rebate incentive program will run until December 31, 2008.
