The ComEd energy efficiency program has been helping owners save energy and reduce their operating expenses in new buildings and buildings undergoing major renovation, since the start of the new construction offering in 2009. The program's impact has been tremendous. What you are seeing is a graphic representation of projected annual savings in kilowatt hours for new construction projects that have received both technical assistance and financial incentives from the ComEd new construction service from 2009 to 2016. The colorful bars illustrate the variety of building types that have benefited from the program - including manufacturing, higher education, retail, health care, and more. The program supports the transformational work of developers, building owners, and design teams. Here are a few highlighted projects. The Douglas Perry student life and recreation center at Olivet Nazarene university received over two hundred seventy five thousand dollars in incentives for integrating geothermal, advanced variable refrigerant flow, high performance envelope and lighting measures, ventilation heat recovery and demand control ventilation into the design. G&W electric corporation received over 300,000 dollars in incentives for a major renovation and expansion of their headquarters by incorporating improved insulation, high-performance glazing, beyond-code lighting, advanced HVAC systems, and variable speed drives for air compressors. State and Chestnut, one of many high-rise multifamily projects that have been served by the program, received over 90 thousand dollars in incentives for implementing high-performance envelope measures, above code lighting controls, high-efficiency heat pumps, enhanced exhaust controls, and open cooling tower efficiency measures.
