GALLERY: Cougars explore UH’s real powerhouse

It whirs, beeps and feels very much alive, and maybe it is — UH Central Plant is the heart that keeps energy flowing through campus facilities.

Students had the opportunity to tour Central Plant with Operations Assistant Director Michael Burriello at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Wednesday.

“The plant itself uses 100 percent of its recycled condensate as water, and, on a sunny day, 23 percent of its power is supplied by solar panels on the roof,” Burriello said.

Tours are offered at 10:30 a.m. on the first Wednesday of every month. To find out more about tours offered, visit the Plant Operations website.
