“…As a concept and practice, "decarbonisation" is yet hardly discussed in the current academic body of knowledge. The explicit mentioning of the term in relation to HEIs is scarce, and few studies refer to the potential of decarbonisation technologies at HEI campuses [32][33][34]. Apart from contributing to environmental, educational, and societal benefits, implementing decarbonisation efforts is believed to provide economic benefits for HEIs as well, although this is currently still being debated in the literature [14].…”

“…Especially in the field of the efficient use of electricity to promote decarbonisationwhich corresponds to 'energy', the third dimension of the designed model-the literature describes several strategies, among which are those that minimise consumption through the acquisition of more efficient electronics (Bernardo & Oliveira, 2018;Gorgulu & Kocabey, 2020) and those related to efforts to extend the commitment of the academic community to rationalise the use of electrical energy (Soares et al, 2015). Other initiatives aimed at co-generating energy through photovoltaic panels, biodigesters, and wind turbines, among other forms, are also mentioned (Bourdeau et al, 2018;Horan et al, 2019Horan et al, , 2020.…”

“…Several studies focus on-campus production of renewable energy. For example, Horan et al (2019) present a method to estimate available energy production from photovoltaic (PV) installations on institutional roofs and over parking lots. The Roberts et al (2016) study of fully renewable institutional energy focuses on campus production and includes a discussion of energy purchases and efficiency, but with no specific criteria for how much to rely on each option.…”
