Abstract
As the new millennium evolves, many further and higher education establishments are bracing themselves against externally imposed challenges. Emerging fiscal constraints are reducing public funding for public institutions in various countries including the United States, United Kingdom and France. USCA for example saw state appropriations reduce from $11.1M in 2008 to $6.1M in 2011. Rising costs of energy in part due to under-capacity to store during off-peak seasons and infrastructure overhaul project investments compound budgetary decision making. Reducing energy consumption requirements partially can alleviate the funding shortfall. Environmentally friendly solutions that reduce dependence on, or usage of fossil fuels, can contribute to reducing the destruction of, or help clean, our world. This solution reduces costs and simultaneously provides attractive incentives to exert intensive efforts
