GRF Community Proposals
Contribute to Energy Efficiency at Bentley
The Office of Sustainability welcomes ideas for reducing energy consumption across campus. Whether identifying opportunities such as lights left on overnight or proposing larger-scale energy efficiency initiatives, members of the Bentley community are encouraged to submit suggestions through the Community Proposal Form.
To support the development of impactful proposals, individuals are invited to review previously funded Green Revolving Fund (GRF) projects and explore how peer institutions are advancing energy efficiency on their campuses.
