Oregon Governor Ted Kulongoski announces State Energy Program funding for its Sylvania Campus Net Zero plan. As part of the first phase of PCC’s Net Zero project (producing as much energy as it requires on-site), the State Energy Program funds would go toward the cost of identified improvements at the 47-year-old College Center Building on campus. The total cost of the project is $15.4 million with PCC contributing $9.7 million of its own money to get the work done. The project also will create 228 jobs during its time span as workers complete each phase of the green overhaul.
