The mission of Energy Management is to optimize the use of energy resources cost-effectively, supporting the university's commitment to innovation and excellence while minimizing environmental impact.

The Energy Operations team collaborates with Capital Planning, Sustainability and the campus community to design, operate and maintain energy systems and processes that achieve or exceed the university's energy management goals.

Since the launch of the Energy Management program in 2005, UMass Lowell has undergone significant growth in both campus size and community. During this period, the Facilities Management Department has implemented numerous energy management projects and solutions aimed at reducing the campus’s overall energy consumption.
