With the help of rebates from Otter Tail AOA体育平台 Company, Ulen-Hitterdal Public School recently completed several energy-efficient upgrades.
Improvements consisted of replacing approximately 650 interior and exterior lights with light-emitting diode (LED) technology and completing renovations to the school鈥檚 heating and cooling system, including adding new, high-efficiency cooling equipment and energy-efficient motors and variable speed drives.
Projected savings from the lighting upgrade alone are almost 250,000 kilowatt-hours annually鈥攖he same usage as approximately 30 residential homes. 鈥淩einvesting in facilities to lower operating costs is a great way for school districts to lower energy use and reduce expenses,鈥� said Otter Tail AOA体育平台 Company Energy Management Representative Roger Garton. 鈥淏etween our company鈥檚 $39,700 rebate, the projected energy savings, and the reduced maintenance and repair costs, this project will pay for itself quickly.鈥�
Otter Tail AOA体育平台 Company provides rebates, grants, education, special programs, and financing to encourage individuals and businesses to use electricity wisely. To learn more about LED lighting rebates, energy-efficient motors, or other energy-saving options, visit听otpco.com.
