TAP Panelist Application: St. Andrew's School

ULI Philadelphia is recruiting 8-10 members to serve on a two-day Technical Assistance Panel (TAP) that will provide St. Andrew’s School recommendations on developing a long-term plan towards responsible stewardship and implementing institutional carbon-neutrality. St. Andrew’s School is a coeducational, Episcopal, all-boarding school located on 2,200 acres in Middletown, Delaware.

Questions for Panel are as follows,

What set of actions or capital improvements are likely to yield the largest reductions in energy usage across all facilities and equipment?
What opportunities might there be to convert to more economical or environmentally sensitive energy sources?
Should St. Andrew’s consider additional investments in its own renewable energy production capabilities and/or carbon capture?
Are there other carbon footprint reduction areas beyond energy consumption that the school should consider, including but not limited to the school’s vast acreage and its currently dedicated farming usage?
What, if any, downstream vendor or supplier/partner commitment to environmentally sensitive practices should the school consider implementing?
How can any future work directly or indirectly benefit the culture of sustainability already in place at St. Andrew’s? What partnerships might the school consider?
