Fenwick Center
Fenwick Center is a renovated facility that includes a laboratory and clinics requiring very high volumes of outside air for ventilation. This air must be conditioned, which adds to the energy burden of the public health center building. AIRE made improvements to the ductwork and ventilation system, including enhanced building controls, and began seeing sharp reductions in energy use in the last half of 2009. The building received a lighting retrofit in 2011. In 2012, Fenwick participated in an AIRE walkthrough audit that helped to identify some low- and no-cost measures to reduce energy use further. Take a look at the most recent case study below to find out how they were able to save additional energy.
See the data and information below for more on the energy use and savings associated with this building.
