CEEE Intern Uncovers Energy Inefficiencies at Md. High School

As a graduating senior at Eleanor Roosevelt High School (ERHS) in Greenbelt, Md., Charlie Renze can’t begin to count the number of grades he’s received over the past four years. But this spring, the tables were turned. As an intern with the Smart and Small Thermal Systems (S2TS) laboratory at the University of Maryland’s Center for Environmental Energy Engineering (CEEE), Renze led an energy audit of ERHS and graded the school on its energy efficiency.
