Hawaii University Campus Aims to Become First to Use 100 Percent Renewable Energy

The University of Hawaii Maui College is on track to become the first in the U.S. to depend totally on renewable energy, it has been reported. The end goal is for Hawaii’s university system in its entirety to produce as much energy as it consumes by the year 2035.

UH Maui spokesman Michael Unebasami said the college will rely on a network of solar panels, which is in line with a growing trend, according to Thomson Reuters Foundation reports.

Six U.S. universities have made similar commitments in the past two years, among them Colorado State University, Boston University, and Cornell University.

What’s One SOP or Protocol You Wish Every Cleanroom Leader Would Rethink
December 23, 2025

Too many cleanroom teams still assume that more disinfectant is the answer, but Annex 1 makes it clear that residues left behind can quietly undermine even the most aggressive cleaning regimes. Without a deliberate residue breakdown step—such as a validated rinse—bioburden can persist beneath the surface, driving CFU formation and downstream environmental monitoring failures….

December 23, 2025

In controlled environments where contamination is measured in microns and margins for error are razor thin, the Suite Ultra-Fiber Wipe from Benchmark Products stands apart by rethinking what microfiber can do. By engineering fibers that are dramatically smaller than standard polyester microfiber, the wipe delivers measurable gains in residue removal, bio-burden reduction, and endotoxin…

What Exactly Is a 5-Log Reduction, and Why Does It Matter for Cleanroom Teams
December 23, 2025

In cleanroom environments, contamination control isn’t about vague cleanliness—it’s about measurable reductions, and a 5-log reduction means cutting microbial presence by 99.999%, turning 100,000 bacteria into just one. For cleanroom teams, this level of performance before disinfectants are even applied is critical, because it dramatically lowers bioburden risk and strengthens the effectiveness of every…
