Atlantic Energy Solutions, Inc has entered into a contract to provide a comprehensive turn key energy efficiency solution at the Mechanicville Central School District located in Upstate New York.
Atlantic Energy Solutions was in direct competition for this project with at least two other very reputable NAESCO accredited companies, Siemans (NYSE: SI), and Johnson Controls (NYSE: JCI). Atlantic Energy Solutions’ CEO Tim Brock said, “We are extremely excited to take on this project.” When asked about some of the technical details, Brock responded, “This project includes the use of three Co-Gen units manufactured by Aegis Energy Services Inc. www.aegisenergyservices.com These units offer a dual purpose in generating electricity while at the same time heating the school, thus saving the school district and the local taxpayers, thousands of dollars each year.”
District Superintendent Michael McCarthy said “ I was very glad to see Atlantic Energy Solutions come out on top, and I look forward to seeing our anticipated energy savings come to fruition. I also look forward to a continued close relationship with Atlantic Energy Solutions for a long time to come.”
Atlantic Energy Solutions also obtained a $55k energy rebate from New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) www.nyserda.org for the school.
Utility rates have increased so sharply in the few years that businesses are increasingly searching for energy efficiencies as a cheaper investment. Energy Efficiency Projects like the one at Mechanicville School have a higher rate of return.
