The UC Office of the President (UCOP) is the systemwide headquarters of the University of California that manages UC\u2019s fiscal and business operations and supports the academic and research missions across its campuses, labs and health systems. UCOP owns and leases space primarily in California, but also has properties in Washington, D.C., and Mexico City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fiscal year 2020\u201321, UCOP completed a major office consolidation project in downtown Oakland. The consolidation, combined with reduced building occupancy due to COVID-19, led to a drop in scopes 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 37% and a reduction in potable water use by 64% compared to the previous fiscal year. Notably, UCOP\u2019s headquarters, 1111 Franklin, saw a 63% decrease in natural gas CO2<\/sub> emissions compared to 2019, due in part to energy efficiency measures related to building heating, ventilation and air conditioning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
