Renewable energy and sustainable buildings

Sustainable Living Center at Maharishi University

  • 1.1 million watt solar array provides one-third of MIU’s electric power – 40% of the campus’ needs are met from renewable resources
  • New construction must be LEED-certified or meet standards of a comparable third-party rating system
  • Groundbreaking net-zero Sustainable Living Center

Organic food

  • 95% of food budget spent on organic food, including locally grown produce
  • 80% of dining hall food scraps composted – compost is used on our student farm
