- Richard Stockton College
Richard Stockton College in Pomona, NJ
installed a natural gas fuel cell as a combined heat and
energy unity in May 2003. The unit, produced by United
Technologies Companies cost $1.3 million and was
financed almost two-thirds (over $700,000) by the New
Jersey Board of Public Utilities and the U.S. Department
of Energy through the state’s Clean Energy program.
The school partnered with South Jersey Industries who,
through its subsidiary South Jersey Energy, provided the
unit, maintenance, and natural gas infrastructure to keep
the unit operating. The fuel cell will mean a savings of
over $80,000 per year in energy costs for the school.

Stockton's Unique Geothermal Project
"We've been interested in energy conservation in buildings since the early 1970s. We studied geothermal designs in the 1980s and actually began using a geothermal system on our own campus in the early 1990s." This is Dr. Lynn F. Stiles, Professor of Physics at The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey. He is describing the background behind the installation of one of the world's largest single closed loop geothermal HVAC systems, totaling 1,741 tons of installed geothermal heating/cooling capacity. The college in Pomona, New Jersey, now uses a large number of heat exchange wells and water source heat pump (WSHP) units to serve the heating and cooling needs of a growing campus."
