Led by project leader Trey Cooper and advisor Erin McAnally-Trejo, this initiative successfully replaces outdated, inefficient refrigerators and freezers with state-of-the-art, Energy Star-rated appliances. These new units utilize climate-friendly r600a refrigerants, minimizing environmental hazards while drastically lowering the electricity required to safely store critical biological samples. By collaborating with the NAU Utilities and Property Surplus offices to ensure proper installation and the responsible disposal or resale of old equipment, the team is establishing a rigorous new standard for laboratory energy efficiency. Ultimately, this equipment overhaul cuts greenhouse gas emissions, lowers operational costs, and actively advances NAU&#8217;s commitment to campus-wide carbon neutrality.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<!-- shortcode-column -->\n<div class=\"shortcode-column shortcode-column--count-2\">\n    \n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>Project Lead:<\/h5>\n<p>Trey Cooper<\/p>\n<h5>Project Advisor:<\/h5>\n<p>Erin McAnally-Trejo<\/p>\n<h5>Date:<\/h5>\n<p>2025-07-07<\/p>\n<h5>Funding Amount:<\/h5>\n<p>$7,788.00<\/p>\n<h5>Department:<\/h5>\n<p>Facility Services<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/136\/2026\/06\/Refridgerator_Replacement_2026_Project_Proposal.pdf\">Supporting Documents<\/a><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>Ride &amp; Retrieve Inititative<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ride &amp; Retrieve Inititative<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3002,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ring_central_script_selection":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5813","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3002"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5813"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5813\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5815,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5813\/revisions\/5815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
