Strategy 1.0 Data Dashboard

Each solution of the CAIP is measured by a SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time Bound) goal. PSPM is responsible for providing guidance and best practices to the staff responsible for implementing the goals, and for tracking progress. Data is collected each fall for the previous fiscal year (FY) and a report is prepared in early spring. The baseline for the goals is FY2019.

1.1.1 SEM: Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) Portfolio Heading link

SMART Goal

  • Decrease total building energy use by 3.0% each year compared to FY2019.
  • Reduce GHG emissions from building energy use by 1.3% each year.

Status: On track

We are on track to meet or exceed both goals. The forecasted (light blue) values are based on the linear trend between 2010 and 2021, continuing in the future.

1.1.2 SEM: Green Revolving Fund Heading link

SMART Goal

  • Create Green Revolving Fund with a minimum of $1,000,000 by 2020.
  • By 2028, increase GRF to $4,600,000 through reinvestment of project savings and increased funding.

Status: Not On track

In FY 2022, UIC established a $1 million green revolving fund. Initial funding was about two years later than planned, and we are not on track to meet the midterm goal of growing the fund to $4.6 million by 2028. the forecast (light blue bars) does not yet take into account expenditures and expected reinvestment rates.
