The students in 194 Main Street has reduced their electricity consumption by 14% this week.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The first week of the 2013 Green Cup Challenge has yielded fierce competition and fantastic results. The students in French House have a clear lead over their competitors, reducing their electricity consumption by 33%, compared to their weekly average consumption. Despite speculation that smaller dorms would have a harder time reducing electricity usage because there are a limited number of ways they could save energy, the members of French have been very successful in their efforts.<\/p>\n

Another dorm worthy of praise is Ford Hall. Ford, despite the electricity used by the Dining Commons and the Children’s Center, has been able to decrease their use of electricity by 11%. Even though they were not ranked among the top three dorms after the first week, the students in Ford Hall have saved the most<\/em>\u00a0energy. Ford has saved 760 kWh, enough to power French House for a few weeks.<\/p>\n

The full results for week one are below.<\/p>\n
