School System Leverages Energy Efficiency Program To Improve Facilities And The Learning Environment For Students
THE OPPORTUNITY
Clinton City Schools leaders needed a dedicated partner to assist in developing a long-term strategy and implementation program that improves energy efficiency at their schools while enhancing overall operations without affecting the existing school system budgets.
THE RESULTS
In partnership with the Clinton City School administration, Energy Systems Group thoroughly analyzed the school system’s infrastructure, energy use and future building needs to determine the highest value options for the school system. ESG designed and implemented a comprehensive and custom strategy to directly improve energy efficiency and operational control.
