More than half of the 40 campus buildings taking part in the 2009 POWERless Energy Competition showed energy reduction for the first week of the contest, with every area of Elon putting forward at leas one building - and often more than one - showing a drop-off in power use.
The top building of the week in Division I is Chandler at 18.5% reduction. In Division II, the distinction goes to Danieley C at 26.3% reduction.
